    An updated version of the Mezzmo Trailer Checker (v0.0.11) has been uploaded to GitHub. This new
    version has a minor enhancements. Testing is underway for supporting IMDB local trailers and if it
    goes well should be available in the next release.

    The "clean files" feature in this release can help reduce disk clutter and makes it easy to delete local
    trailer files when you've removed a movie from your Mezzmo library and you are running local trailers.
    You don't need to run it all the time and not after you delete each movie. Just run it periodically to
    help keep things clean.


    v0.0.11 fixes and features:

    • Added "clean files" and "show files" commands to display and delete orphaned
    trailer files which do not have a Mezzmo trailer entry in the Mezzmo library
    • Added IMDB movie numbers to the mTrailers table to prepare for upcoming
    support for local IMDB trailers
    • Added commit to trailer database after each 500 checks during large full
    library trailer database checks

    To get started please review the Getting Started page on the Wiki. The current version of the Mezzmo Trailer Checker is v0.0.11 can be downloaded here.

    It is highly recommended to do a backup of your Mezzmo database before using the tool and the Mezzmo GUI and server service need
    to be stopped in order for it the checker to write to the Mezzmo database. This is a protection mechanism to ensure just one application is writing
    to the Mezzmo database at a time.

    The release notes for the various releases can be found here.

    I added a couple of Wiki pages with step-by step instructions and screenshots on how to use the Mezzmo Trailer Checker with Mezzmo to automatically
    add local trailers and how to edit / update them. I hope you will find these very helpful. I have begun an FAQ Wiki page (Frequently Asked Questions) with
    some of the most common questions related to running the tool with Mezzmo. The FAQ has a number of Kodi specific questions.

    The tool has been working very well for me, especially since the fixes in v0.0.3. I find myself watching more movies in my Mezzmo / Kodi library due to the
    the Mezzmo Movie Previews feature and local trailers I have Mezzmo Movie Previews set to 3 previews. Now I get 3 random trailers from the release year
    of the movie which haven't been watched in my library, then the main movie starts. It's an almost movie theater-like experience..

    Questions and feedback are welcome.

    folder

    is found, they will be placed first in the list in Mezzmo.

    v0.0.13 fixes and features:

    An updated version of the Mezzmo Trailer Checker (v0.0.14) has been uploaded to GitHub. This new
    version has a bug fix an enhancement and adds two new commands to help keep the trailer database
    cleaner.


    v0.0.14 fixes and features:

    • Simplified the IMDB trailer naming, removing random generated characters by
    the trailer checker. Now random characters will only be added to IMDB
    trailers if the trailer file name is a duplicate of an already existing
    trailer file. This is consistent with how You Tube trailers are named. The
    prior IMDB naming structure will continue to work fine. This only impacts
    new IMDB local trailers.
    • Added "clean bad" and "clean long" commands to remove trailer records from
    the Trailer Checker database which are displayed with a 'Show" command.
    Trailers that are long or bad do not get updated into Mezzmo but will stay
    in the Trailer Checker database until cleaned. This do not cause a problem.
    These new commands just help keep the trailer database cleaner.
    • Improved duplicate trailer name checking when multiple You Tube trailer URLs
    point to the same file name for the same new movie fetch.

    An updated version of the Mezzmo Trailer Checker (v0.0.17) has been uploaded to GitHub. This new
    version is a bug fix release.


    v0.0.17 fixes and features:

    • Fixed bug introduced in v0.0.15 which was causing You Tube 403 errors due to
    an improper trailer format response parsing. This would cause You Tube 720P
    trailer fetch attempts when a 720P trailer format was not available.
    • Added logging to show format for attempted fetch trailer requests for IMDB or
    You tube. Previously only successful trailer fetch results would be logged.
    • Updated yt-dlp.exe from v2023.02.17 to v2023.07.06

    An updated version of the Mezzmo Trailer Checker (v0.0.18) has been uploaded to GitHub. This new
    version adds the ability to select the trailer output format of either mp4 or mkv format. Some devices
    like Roku units cannot play high resolution mo4 formatted videos.


    v0.0.18 fixes and features:

    • Fixed a bug which would occur when an IMDB movie trailer had a comma in the
    name when fetched and the trailer needed the frame rate or audio adjusted.
    • Added option to output trailers in mkv format instead of mp4. This allows
    Roku devices and similar which don't support higher resolution mp4 video
    playback to be able to play local trailers. There is also a new "adjust
    format" command to do bulk conversions from mp4 to mkv up to 200 trailers
    for each run.
