I think your attempt at "humor" came across as rudeness to me. ..epecially because i still don't think it is irrelevant at all

Check out YTrailers from http://www.ballingtons.com/products I never got on with any or the official trailer plugins so i wrote my own from a decent source - YouTube. It looks up the trailer listings from the stored tmdb meta and downloads the vids from YouTube as and when it can.

 

I use it myself all the time so its regularly updated as and when things change, Might be just what you need.

 

Shameful self promotion i know, but it works.

Thanks @@radeon - I kept meaning to contact you about the YT trailer plugin ;)

The question about release level isn't irrelevant in theory because it was actually a version of the server that deleted the existing plug-in install.  In reality, it doesn't matter now because the server has been released.

 

We should not have deleted the old plug-in before we had the new functionality implemented.  I think that was the only misstep here.

for those of you running dev builds, the trailer channel now has the downloading again. it needs to be enabled from the config page. if you're not on dev, it will come to you as the the releases get bumped up to beta and stable.

My trailers are largely kept in a separate library/path, and they too no longer show up with 3.0.5451.540.

I have the same problem with trailers the new plugin has downloaded.

The new plugin has named these automatically, which fail to match as trailers to the server, but instead as movies of their own. The rest of my collection, downloaded with the prior trailers plugin are fine.

 

Are new trailers supposed to show up in latest? They never have before.

Luke, I edited the post above. It appears its just saving to movie name and year, not respecting filenames with regards to saving local trailers now. In regards to attack of the killer tomatoes, it used -trailer.divx.avi as the extension causing it. In regards to avatar, it not letting me use multiple trailers [0-9] anymore, -trailer2.mp4. These are the bugs so far I am seeing.

what program did you download the trailer mov with? 

 

because the trailer downloading that i wrote saves it to {movie}-trailer.ext. where {movie} is the filename of the movie, not the metadata name. therefore the trailer should be looper.2012.bluray.blah.blah-trailer.mov

It might have been the old trailer plugin downloaded it. I cant be 100% sure which did it was 1 or the other. The server used to respect it as a trailer, as long as it was in the folder with -trailer in it. It doesn't do this any anymore? If it doesn't others will have this issue shortly. Every user of the old plugin.

Hi Luke, I'm getting the same thing happen, but it actually looks like 2 trailers have been created. One with ..mp4 Although this happened at the start of October, and I haven't noticed till now.

The movies that I added after that date are working fine. Could it have something to do with a bug that was introduced then, but has since been fixed?

I concur with @@swhitmore. It took me about 45 mins last night to put it all back to rights. My meta data is all provided by MetaBrowser2 and up until the last MBS dev (3.0.5451.540) update all was good. Like the others I suddenly had duplicate trailers being downloaded and added as movies in the web client. Strange thing is it didn't happen to all of my movies - about 10 or so (out of about 400) from memory. Ranging from a couple of Harry Potter movies to Philomena, Payback, The avengers and a couple of others. All had new (duplicated) fan art with the movie name appended and were created at the time of the MBS upgrade. To stop it happening, I had to disable MBS meta data fetching. I had a couple of new trailers with the "***-trailer..ext" issue but not all of the affected movies had it. I have the "Trailers plugin v1.0.5448.33319 installed if that make any difference.

I can't show you any screen shots as it has all been put back as it was before the update. Is there anything else I can provide?

 

EDIT: should I remove the trailers plugin if MBS can fetch trailers by itself?

2nd EDIT: I also have the Trailers channel installed - is this a case of too many fingers in the pie?

Not sure if this is related, but nuVue is reporting some of my "old" movies as "new".

 

I'm getting xml and various other metadata files being created for the trailers, so is this why?

 

I've disabled the download of trailers for my local movies.

Same here. I thought that problem was releated with *-trailer.mov(mp4) files but it is not.

My * - [hsbs] files also effected. All of them re-detected as new movies and my hundreds of movie folders messed up with multiple xml and jpg files. Below is the example from one of my directories. All the bold ones are new.

 

EDIT: Bold didn't work on <code>. Files dated after 12/05/2014 12:07 AM are the new ones.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>

  <LockData>false</LockData>
  <Type>Folder</Type>
  <LocalTitle>Magic in the Moonlight</LocalTitle>
</Item>

For Magic in the Moonlight there are 2 files: movie.xml and Magic in the Moonlight.xml with same content. Movie information, plot, rating, tomato and other  IDs, movie web site, artis info etc.

I think what Luke is saying is that at some point local trailer download functionality will return as an option in the trailer channel, and when it does, it will match films much more accurately, so it sounds positive to me. I guess it's just a shame we lost the deprecated version before the new channel was ready. Cheers for all the hard work though guys.
