shutchinson, is it the only one you found not working or you have others too?

No, this is my fault - when I changed the auto-scraper to pick the best quality
video
link, it messed up the manual one.
I will fix and update

Ah, OK, luckily :)
Thank you Dazza!
shutchinson, about your database idea, have you meant that you could host
something
like this online?

Bence,
Yes I could host something like this online. I have the front end designed,
just need
to setup the backend and finish the php.

Dazza, Jason,
Can you think about any blocking point to make use of such a database?
If shutchinson think this serious and he can host it in a reliable, fast
connection,
and he will maintain and support it continously, then why not? I would support
the idea.

Not at all... it would be a huge asset, not only to ember but to all media
managers. Have an
api for searching, and allow users to add links... will be awesome.

Downside of allowing users to add links would be that too many SD trailers had
linked
because there are far too many idiots out there. In that case unfortunatelly
some
moderation would be needed as well.

Well, there could just be some predefined options for users to select when
adding a
link: SD, 720p, and 1080p. It doesn't have to be *just* HD trailers. ;) I think
the
biggest problem is going to be getting direct links to the video files.

I suppose SD / 720p / 1080p fields could be an option, but given that embermm
can
already differentiate formats from a singular HD URL, essentially you only need
to
pass on the HD URL to EMM and let it handle the format pulling.
At the moment here is how I have the alpha (read: simple) version planned.
Index page similar to: http://hdtrailers.allhtpc.com
Users submit a YouTube HD Trailer URL and associated IMDB ID. This then sits in
a
moderation queue. Admins/moderators then login to the backend where they see a
list
of the submitted URLs/IDs. They then manually check them to verify the URL is
working
and matches the IMDB ID and approves it if accurate.
The DB currently consists of two fields: "IMDBID" and "TrailerLink"
Of course this can be expanded, modified, etc.

Looks good to me, but I am strongly against linking only SD youtube URLs. It is
useless, seriously.
And if the currently implemented scraper can always differentiate an SD URL
(I've
never try that), then the users can still get SD if they want.
But to stay on the quality side, I would prohibit only SD links...
