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 :
like
or:
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.
Voila!
Changed the last part with exact match like shown below and no need to create a second query to grab video_id: .....WHERE url = 'http://localhost/test/" $1 ".mkv';"}
What I still do not know is how it grabs video_id as value in SELECT field.
I did not tell it to read video_id where $1 matches.
I supposed that I should have created a second query to grab it which was the main purpose of the thread.
Hello Rudic,
Without testing, I can say that it will not return any result because there should be http://% like this: url = 'http://%Mr.Smith.Goes.to.Washington%.mkv';
Maybe I am wrong..
If the last occupied row id is 100, I run it like this:
barisprep
Then I run:

Thank you
