[QUOTE="luci5r, post: 925372, member: 113478"] Here's what's going on now --- The MovingPictures Database is definitely the issue. I replaced the current "corrupted" db3 with an old backup and MediaPortal launched flawlessly. No problems. That said, I must point out that the latest version of StreamedMP (1.8.1) still didn't work --- the Basic Home Editor kept crashing; however MediaPortal itself continued to work fine. So I uninstalled StreamedMP 1.8.1 and re-installed the older version, StreamedMP 1.8.0 ... and both MediaPortal & StreamedMP Editor started working absolutely fine. Here's the problem now --- The MovingPictures "Configuration" isn't working. Basically it's getting stuck at "Retrieving Possible Matches". I've had this problem before because of a corrupted db3 database. At that time i had to use an even older backup & everything had worked. This time I've tried an even older backup and it still doesn't work. I finally resorted to deleting my MovingPictures db3 Database altogether and let it create a new one. STILL it doesn't work. Same problem. Stuck at "Retrieving possible matches". No matter what I do - I can't get MovingPictures to add new titles to the database. I understand that this is outside the scope of the 'MediaPortal' application support because MediaPortal (And StreamedMP) are both working fine -- it's the MovingPictures Plugin that isn't. While I'm gong to open a support thread in the MovingPictures plugin forum ---- I had one question ... Is there a decent alternate to MovingPictures? I really like MovingPictures and all, but over the last year it's given me a lot of trouble. The db3 database seems to get corrupted at every little sneeze & cough. Is there an alternate I can consider? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
