Where does plex get trailers

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files

Where does plex gets its trailers from?

I like to have trailers for all/most of my movies, however, plex is able to grab trailers for only some movies. IMDB already had a trailer for a particular movie I was looking for, so I tried to add a trailer in TMDB for that movie to see if plex will show me that trailer after “Refresh Metadata” after a couple of days, but it didn’t. So, what sources does plex use for trailers?

P.S: I know that I can download the trailer to my local library and make it appear in plex, but I want the online way.

Plex is using a repository that’s not freely available (https://www.internetvideoarchive.com/). If I remember correctly that’s mostly about the licensing… while people often tend to copy stuff without such considerations, there’s restrictions if you want to use such videos as a business (e.g. Plex)
