CNN Videos Scraper (6 Editions)

Collects video metadata — never the media files — from the six CNN editions that publish a video feed.


Editions with video	US, International, en Español, Arabic, Indonesia, Portugal
Editions without	Brasil, Chile, Czechia, Greece, Japan, Türkiye — each returns an ERROR row explaining why
Returns	title, description, duration (normalised to seconds), thumbnail, upload date, content and embed URLs, transcript when published
Archive	back to 2015 on US / International / en Español

Example input

{
  "editions": ["us", "indonesia", "portugal"],
  "maxItemsPerEdition": 25,
  "includeVideoDetail": true
}

Two metadata sources

Which one an edition offers changes what a cheap run can return:

CNN Indonesia and CNN Portugal embed Google Video sitemap tags (<video:video>) directly in the feed — title, description, thumbnail and duration arrive without any detail fetch. feedCarriesVideoTags is true on their summary rows.
US, International, en Español and Arabic publish bare URL sitemaps. Their metadata exists only in a VideoObject JSON-LD block on each video's page, so includeVideoDetail must stay on for those.

Durations are normalised to videoDurationSeconds from both forms — sitemaps give plain seconds, JSON-LD gives ISO-8601 PT1M34S — so one comparable number exists regardless of which edition a row came from.

Limits

Six editions have no video feed at all. They are not silently dropped: each returns an ERROR row naming the reason. CNN Greece is a notable case — cnn.gr/sitemap/videos answers 200 with a valid <sitemapindex>, but its children are the site's article, pages and tags sitemaps. It is the generic index served for any /sitemap/<anything> path, not a video feed.
CNN Indonesia's video sitemap carries no date field. No <video:publication_date>, no <lastmod>. The publish date is derived from the timestamp in each video's URL and flagged videoUploadDateSource: "url-derived" so a consumer can tell it apart from an upstream-supplied date.
CNN Arabic's video archive is stale and ordered oldest-first. Its ten pages run from 2014; the newest content is on the last page, which this actor reads first.
Media files are never downloaded. videoContentUrl and videoEmbedUrl are returned as published; fetching them is out of scope.
