New trailer scraper - http://www.trailerfreaks.com/ #179

Jason, I hope you're not get bored about creating trailer scrapers, because
I think this one is providing premium quality trailers(most of them from
apple trailers). 

Unfortunately the number of trailers are still limited, but most of the
newer movies are already in there and the site seems active. Much more
promising than the others.

The problem is there is no way to link the trailer from the site to the IMDB 
ID. We
could search the site, but there would be no guarantee that the results are the
proper movie.

To be a compatible site, it would either need to have listings on the IMDB 
trailer
page or be able to be searched by IMDB ID. Oh, and not have any sort of any anti
hot-linking going on.

I get your points.

Nevertheless, although the site is not able to be searched on IMDB ID, I 
checked and
they are using the exact precise movie name from IMDB(only require a small 
tweak on
the "the" token). 
So I think there is no huge risk of getting invalid trailers, if we are 
searching by
the exact movie name from IMDB. And we can also restrict the search to 100% 
match.

I am trying to "push" this becuase the quality of the trailers on the other 
sites are
soooo.... :(

i tried searching their site and I get no results no matter what I search for. 
The
first movie on their front page is "daybreakers".... even if I search for that 
it
gets nothing. lol

Would be nice to use it though because they do have high quality trailers and 
would
be really easy to d/l from.

Marked as wontfix until we get a response from the site admin.

There were no response from the admin, therefore we cannot expect so much 
support
from the site. So unfortunately this is a nogo in this way.
