Hey vbat

Sorry I am back again
and I have redone all my 1500 movies with mc and 90 % of trailers are dead again
I do not know what causes this but it only happens when scraped with mc ? and i have found out it is not all but it seems to be those starting with r1 -r5 in the link like this

Code:

<trailer>http://r1---sn-nuv45-55ge.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?mv=m&amp;signature=69E5288AF67EF4C7DF80F9671E365B3385D6B9F6.34647A474D3E116422FC5CFBB466C6E62F922DAA&amp;key=yt5&amp;source=youtube&amp;ratebypass=yes&amp;expire=1397359958&amp;id=o-ACF_dp7RNoNEfr42Vr01dhDzwUQVDQm5GCeKfNiRt9Ix&amp;ip=86.52.95.162&amp;itag=22&amp;ms=au&amp;upn=ve_fHoxF5IE&amp;fexp=941286,937417,913434,936916,934022,936923&amp;sparams=id,ip,ipbits,itag,ratebypass,source,upn,expire&amp;mt=1397339200&amp;sver=3&amp;ipbits=0&amp;fallback_host=tc.v20.cache5.googlevideo.com&amp;signature=</trailer>

all these stop working after a little while.
and regarding the plugin format where you say its for playback in mc, I have never had an option to play the trailer link in mc the only option i have is to download it.
I hope you guys can find a fix for this

The anoing thing is if i rescape the trailer in mc and refresh the movie in xbmc they work but in the long run thats not really viable

There is an issue with google link to YouTube trailers, where they expire.

As for the plugin://plugin... etc, this is an export format from XBMC. We have the http address so the user can download the trailer and have it stored with the nfo, artwork etc. When XBMC read's the nfo, and detects the <trailer> is populated, it converts it to plugin://plugin... format.

Once the trailer url is in the nfo, the user can click the Download button. If a trailer is downloaded or a trailer is present for the movie, the Download button becomes a Play Trailer button.

I am hunting for an alternative way of gaining the youtube url for Media Companion, but this is all new to me.

Btw, MC first attempts to get trailers from HD-Trailers.net, specially if they are 720p trailers. If they are below this resolution, then it attempts to get from YouTube. Also, if no 720p trailer is available from HD-Trailers, MC switches to Youtube.

Will have to get an alternative way for Youtube, or a better trailer site.
