The "automatic" trailer option in Boxee is good but it just don't support that many new films and the quality is BAD.

But

Wouldn't it be nice if it could fetch the trailer from your film off the apple quicktime trailer site? since the QT Trailer site has many many trailers in HD and SD resolution.

To give an example
based on the resolution Boxee is running,
Lets say 1080p It will grab only the 1080p trailer of your movie and if your running Boxee at 720p it will grab only the 720p trailer.


I would love to see such option in Boxee, it would instantly beat Apple TV.

if i'm correct there is a plugin for XBMC that let you browse and watch QT trailers, so many the plugin can be recoded to do this when it scans for new movies in your movie directory ?
