you might try another movie. Some movies just don't have trailers available.

Any ideas?

Matrix does not have any theatrical trailers, that's why the option is disabled. If there are too many films without a theatrical trailer I will revert my latest changes, but I don't think we want to see some random interviews instead of a trailer.

What about pulling all available videos and allowing the user to choose a trailer. Similar to how we can choose thumbs or fanart.

I did a complete scan of my library with Rev16701 and only 107 of 931 movies pulled in a trailer URL this time.

I loaded up an old database from last May and 619 of 814 had trailers.

It seems something is up.

Once again modified in SVN revision 16717. Imdb enabled scrapers will now match on all kinds of trailers. Fixes the Matrix issue.

I compiled Rev16723 today and finally got the trailers to work. My only problem with the imdb scraper is that the actor thumbs don't show up.

Actor thumbs are working fine here. You will have to enable "Automatically grab actor thumbs" in Videos - Library settings.
