Im new to Plex and have to say i love it!, got my self a late 2012 mac mini using it as a server and one of the clients.

&nbsp;

I decided after looking around i would like to develop some channels for myself and the community however i have ran into a little problem and need pointing in the right direction if possible.

&nbsp;

I've successfully managed to scrape the contents of the webpage (movies) into the channel i.e. title, thumb and the remote page url, i then wrote a url service to get the metadata and parse out the direct url of the movie however it seems now to only be returning a youtube hd trailer and metadata from the youtube video? I'm almost there i just cannot figure this out. There is a youtube trailer on the webpages but no where in my \_\_init\_\_ or servicecode scripts do i attempt to fetch the trailer nor anything todo with youtube. I simply parse the mp4 file with xpath

```

```

My Log.Debug also only seems to be firing on the&nbsp;MediaObjectsForURL CALL
