@Demosthien:
Currently the “Fetch All Metadata” action does the following:
Check to see if it can find the movie or tv show, does not work for anime because it needs two ID’s to function correctly.
If the corresponding API of movies or tv shows gives at least one result, it will use the first one it finds.
If there’s no result, it’ll skip that movie or tv show and goes on to the next one.
If an error occurs such as a non connection, it’ll skip that movie or tv show and goes on to the next one.
I probably should handle errors better, i’ll look into that.

Trailers indeed have varying results, if it doesn’t start loading the progress bar in about 2 seconds, it probably won’t happen at all. your best bet then is to try again immediately, try again later, or give up on it.
Currently it uses a youtube URL and some HTML descrambling to get a clean video URL, which doesn’t always work, and doesn’t give out very clean error messages.
I’d like to use another source then youtube in the future when I get around to it and find a suitable one.
I don’t think I changed much between beta 9 and 10 that would cause unhanded exceptions when downloading fanart, I did change a bunch in beta 11 but currently it has a bug that renames the fanart images wrong anyhow.
I’ll try and look into it as best I can, let me know if it still happens in the upcoming beta 12.
