Add YouTube as an additional source for scraping and downloading video snaps directly into LaunchBox, allowing users to easily populate missing gameplay, trailer, or review videos for their games.
Currently, LaunchBox relies heavily on EmuMovies for video snaps. While EmuMovies has excellent coverage, it doesn’t always include videos for ROM hacks, fan games, or lesser-known titles. Users who want video snaps for these games must manually find, download, and add videos—making the process tedious and time-consuming.

Allow users to search by game title and pull in videos tagged as gameplay, reviews, or trailers
Provide simple filters for users to prioritize official-looking gameplay or higher-quality uploads

Expands video coverage beyond EmuMovies, especially for rare, obscure, or fan-made content
Reduces manual effort for users needing to fill video gaps
Provides a more complete and polished experience when browsing games in Big Box
Keeps video snap libraries flexible and up to date with minimal extra work 🎥🎮🛠️
