Can't D/L Video With many Results
 
Whenever i look up video's if it has more than a full page of results, it will not d/l even though there are 50+ Hosts. Any ideas?

You might be seeing fake files.

There are lots of fake & misnamed files around, always use Bitzi to check a file before download. People use Bitzi to rate files...if the file's been rated then you'll get an idea of content & quality. See the 'how to use Bitzi' link for info about downloading Bitcollider...so that you can rate files yourself.
If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake. There's more info & tips in the threads below.

How to find music(tips for movies, too)

Nope bitzi says it's true.
It's not that it's the wrong movie. It's that i will say "connecting" permanently.

Or it will say "Trying hosts ( XX numbers tried) but will not download."

Normally, those files that sit connecting forever or try heaps of sources but never connect are fakes. How many Bitzi reviews does the file have?

Have you tried downloading a few different versions of the file? Is it only 1 file that has this problem (don't mention the file name;)), can you download other video files? What about music...do music files download ok?

Nope absolutely none of the video files work.
BUT Music files work fine no matter how many files there are.
For video files if there is not at least a page of results it will download.
