The Movie Database Support

So a question (and if this is more appropriate at XBMC, a link would be helpful.)

When XBMC scrapes trailers -- Youtube -- does it identify the video as a clip, trailer or featurette, and only download the trailer? I would think folks would prefer the trailer scraped to actually be a trailer. I ask because I've been addling lots (LOTS) of trailers and featurettes to movie pages and was wondering how that would affect folks.... and there are a number of folks that have entered movie clips rather than trailers (tagged as clips)

Hey Steve,

I'm not actually sure to be honest. We do definitely provide all of the different types through the API but I am not sure which ones they are specifically choosing. Definitely a better question for them.

Hey Travis,

I noticed there is no 'Type' in the API, was this overlooked? e.g.

{"name":"Con Footage","size":"HD","source":"zA92Rw6kNWw"}

That is missing 'Teaser' as defined here: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/68726-pacific-rim/edit?active_nav_item=trailers

Looks like it was indeed just an oversight. I've created a new ticket for this here and will look into shortly.
