[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 838429, member: 18896"] Ok, located the problem. The IMDb+ plugin, downloads the latest scraper-script version from Google website. It then inserts this version (which has the wrong C:\ paths) into MovingPictures database and then adjusts paths. It seems MovingPictures GUI has some cache/memory or other race-condition issue with that, so it ends up using the pure SVN version of the IMDb+ scraper-script which leads to the problems you experience. I was able to locate the problem and identify it, but my C# knowledge is not good enough yet to actually put it down in working code without breaking anything else. But I've got some awesome help, so hopefully it will be fixed soon and you can expect a new IMDb+ plugin to be released containing the fix shortly after. In the meantime, a dumb workaround would be to close MediaPortal GUI when you get an IMDb+ scraper-script update notification. A restart of MovPic GUI should force it to re-read the database (which has the proper updated IMDb+ version as verified in the DB3 file you sent), which will make it use the version with the correct path. It could be that the .NET framework does some wierd caching as well, in which case in worst case scenario you would have to reboot system. But considering that this is the first time ever that this issue has been brought to my attention and that the same code has been in place for a long time, I think it is safe to say that it is a very random bug that does not happen often.
