Support Non-Youtube Remote trailer urls

[xjasonlyu 3]

Hi,

I have a custom movie metadata provider plugin, everything works like a charm except the trailer. The plugin adds either mp4 or m3u8 type URL to the RemoteTrailer variable array of the MetadataResult.

However, when I try to play a trailer, I constantly get an error of No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details.

It's kind of confusing and I thought it might be the trailer video source's issue, so I open the emby library.db file and find the trailer link, then I open it in my browser and it turns out the link is valid. Also, I noticed that all the trailers used by Emby provider are Youtube links, they are neither mp4 nor m3u8 links. 

So I wonder why this trailer feature doesn't work even if the provided trailer url works. And what's the correct type of trailer url/link is supported by Emby.

Hi, I'll have to review but I think right now those are pretty much hardcoded to work with YouTube urls only.

I see, and is there any chance to add plain mp4/m3u8 link for trailer in the future?

Yes that sounds reasonable.

Great!

Do I need to start a new feature request topic for this? Can’t wait!

I'll move this to feature requests. Thanks.
