[QUOTE="Den70, post: 487143, member: 88899"] Thanks. But the trick I had in mind (backing up that file and restore it) doesn't work. I restored the old database-file I kept but after that the links to the movies were all broken like before restoring. So after a few minutes the duplicates were made again. I wonder in which way Movingpictures detects paths to moviefiles because when I take a look at the duplicates in the configuration both movies have the same filename but only one of them (the one that's not red I presume) works inside MP. Only solution: getting rid of all the movies and letting them be imported again. The most annoying about it is that you have to go back to the configuration every time. As the topic starter is telling nearly the exact story it must be some bug in the way files are detected. I hope something can be done or maybe some settings could be altered. Edit: In the advanced configuration I detected two settings that look interesting: -Allow disk monitor to watch for drive changes -Enable importer while in GUI Disabling the second could stop duplicating while using MP but it is not what I really want. But why is "true" the standard value for the first one ? [/QUOTE]
