How to add a trailer source to a video?

As you probably have noticed, all videos can have two types of sources: Full Links and Trailers! You can see a full list of supporting websites over here. This guide will show you how a trailer can be added to an existing video. See the section below to learn how you can add a trailer to a new video. It is recommended that you read this entire guide whether you want to add a trailer to a new or existing video. To add a trailer to an existing video, you must click on the "Trailer" tab when you select the "Add a source to this video" option in the watch page. Then, you will see a field where you can add your trailer link. There are two types of trailers that you can add:

  • YouTube Trailers: YouTube trailers are found Only through youtube.com. Just click on the "Search for a YouTube Trailer" button in the trailer tab to start searching for a trailer on youtube. This button will automatically do the search for you based on the title of the video on MotionEmpire. You can also search manually for the movie name + "HD trailer" (For example "Twilight HD Trailer") on youtube and find a suitable result that has a good quality. Then add the youtube link to the trailer field and submit your trailer! its as easy as that. It is important to remember that all the trailers added from YouTube must have the "embedding option" enabled in order to be accepted by MotionEmpire. If a video has "Embedding disabled by request", it will not be accepted into the system.
  • HD Trailers from the official website: HD trailers are high definition trailers that are extracted from the official movie website. In order to find the URL to a HD trailer, you must search for the official movie website through google, and then find the URL of the trailer using the Video DownloadHelper which is an extension for Mozilla Firefox. Note that the easiest way to find the trailer URL is by using firefox and DownloadHelper together. Just go to the page that the trailer will play on the official website. The download helper icon will start spinning which indicates that the URL for the trailer has been found. Click on the icon and find the URL. After you have the URL, just enter it into the trailer field and click on submit. HD trailers always have a higher quality than YouTube trailers and they are a bit harder to find.

Trailers can only consist of 1 part. Also, You cannot add a trailer and a full link both at the same time.


Adding Trailers to New Videos (Upcoming Movies/Videos)

If you want to upload a new video with just a trailer (instead of a full source), you need to make sure that your video is an Upcoming video. In this case, you need to find the section where it says "Click here if you are uploading a trailer link!" in the upload page and then check the box that says "This source is a trailer for an upcoming video.". This process will ensure that your newly uploaded video will be recognized as an upcoming video with a valid trailer.
