I think I've found the root cause.
When I was about to post this thread, I supposed that the code was not grabbing video_id from related line as I received error. Now I see I have to change the lasting part of the code :
Code:
....WHERE url like '%" $1 "%.mkv';"}

like
Code:
....WHERE url like '" $1 "%.mkv';"}

or:
Code:
....WHERE url like '" $1 ".mkv';"}

Let's say: if $1 is It, the code finds many matching lines in '%It%.mkv'
If the value in $1 is This.is.how.we.do.it.mkv, it returns with error as there are double entries.

I will post the result later on as my database needs to be repaired.


Thank you
Boris
