Trailer embed from other sites than YouTube

Maybe it would be nice to be able to embed trailers from other sites (the network site itself) than YouTube.

VIER doen'st have trailers on YouTube, but they do on their own site.

Example: You can watch the trailer for Dictator 1x04: Aflevering 4 here (or here), which has this embed link.

You always take the risk that they delete them which they do all the time. It's like giving the official site for a show, as soon as the show is cancelled, the pages are gone (not right away but soon after)

But it can also been taken down on YouTube?

True but less likely if you're using reliable sources like ign etc. But yeah they can. I'm not particularly in favor of trailers to begin with, i don't care about them to be fair. Without hosting them on the website, it's not a good idea. But youtube will less likely take them down unless the networks go after certain publishers. And then, networks can come after you for hosting as well. Again, i'm not in favor of trailers to begin with, it's the risks you have to take. It' s a maybe, a risk to take.

The presentation for the muppets for example, you can't find it anymore on youtube, you can search every single media which published and the video ain't watchable anymore, I was sad when i noticed that.

But networks wesbites ? it's not a maybe, it's a sure thing that as soon as the show is gone, all is gone.

Not with VIER. You can still watch trailers, ... from shows that doesn't run anymore

But only shows that aired on that network, right ?

Let me rephrase, most networks take down shows pages and trailers as soon as the show is cancelled, passed on to another network etc.

But in any case, youtube is riky, but it's a maybe, it's a 99% for networks.

The only way would be to host the trailers and again with the risk that some will push for removal.

Here in Belgium it's not that common that shows change to another network.

VIER's site still has trailers from shows that don't run anymore.
