Trailers stopped working

I've used Ember to add Movie trailer urls to my nfo's. They worked perfect when I first scanned the media, but they don't work after a reboot of XBMC.

Here's a copy of an nfo. as you can see the link to the trailer is present. it plays them when media is first scanned, but not after.

Code:

  <plot>Searching for family. In the early twenty-first century, zombies have taken over America. A shy and inexperienced college student in Texas has survived by following his 30 rules: such as "look in the back seat," "double-tap," "avoid public restrooms." He decides to travel to Ohio to see if his parents are alive. He gets a ride with a boisterous zombie-hating good-old boy headed for Florida, and soon they confront a young woman whose sister has been bitten by a zombie and wants to be put out of her misery. The sisters were headed to an LA amusement park they've heard is zombie free. Can the kid from Ohio get to his family? And what about rule thirty one?</plot>

I tried the trailer URL in your NFO file and it won't play in XBMC or mplayer.

Yes, but if i delete myvideos34 in the database and re-scan the media the trailer plays (until I reboot XBMC). I have tried this and it works on each of my 4 pc's running XBMC

Ok, I've added a new Movie to my collection, added an nfo with Ember and let Xbmc scan and add it to the library on boot. The trailer plays fine, even after a reboot it still plays, but none of the other movie trailers play when they played just after scanning and adding to the library.

I originally had my suspicions that the IMDB trailer link timed out or changed, but now I'm not sure. I'm going to test this now on one of my pc's, I'll remove the myvideos34 database file and add the media again and see if they play. It could also have something to do with ampersand and xml. I would like to get to the bottom of it, even if I don't find a solution

Ok, added my media again and the only trailer that works is the new movie. It seems the url's timeout.

After a search I found this thread:
