Ok i've decided to split from the previous thread on MyTrailers to introduce the new version of MyTrailers 2.0.1
I've fixed most issues from the previous version but playback still depends on the users codec configuration for now. I'm a bit short on time at the moment so this opening post will get updated shortly with more information. I still consider the plugin to be beta but i don't expect major issues with the current version. I started with version number 2.0 to set this release apart from the "old" my trailers by Zipperzip.

Original thread
Skin packs: (2.0.2)
Installation
- Unzip the archive into your MediaPortal directory.
note:
The default skin included is BlueTwo Wide. Supported skin updates get added to the section above.
If you are using another skin with support for previous versions of this plugin this will probably not work and those skin files need to be adjusted.
Features
- Supports default List/Thumbnail/Icon/Filmstrip views
- Sorting by Title and Release data
- Caching (automatic) and refresh button
- Multiple videos/qualites per movie/game (if available).
- Load on demand: Only get the requested information as you navigate through the list / details
- Current providers: Apple Movie Trailers, GameTrailers.com
- Tested on/compatible with Mediaportal RC2 and RC3
Smart List Filter (for remote users)
By using the (0-9) buttons on your remote you can filter the active list. Just press the number corresponding to the required letter to only show list items that contain the search string. You don't have to use multi-tap to get to a specific letter as the filter will account for all combinations. Back (ESC/*) will clear the current search.
Examples:
- for all titles containing "The", enter 8-4-3 on your remote
- for all titles containing "Cool", enter 2-6-6-5 on your remote
Known issues
- Loading of details for a trailer for GameTrailers can take a long time depending on the video count.
- GameTrailers don't have a big cover (because the site doesn't supply high res)
- The default BlueTwo Skin is not optimal ( any good skinners in the house? )
Solving (apple trailer) playback issues:
There are several codec configurations that wil support apple quicktime playback.
Below are a couple of options:
* Quicktime + MediaLooks QuickTime Plugin
* SAF (customized mediaportal codec pack)
Coming soon
- Download/Save trailers
- Trailer playback with buffering (for .mov) .
