Ugh, I hope MovPic v1.4 did not break anything. Will try to recreate the problem on my end, but it might be specific to your PC due to geographical IP location, IMDb+ settings, etc, etc.
If I fail to recreate, you might need to help me with movingpictures.log files in scraper-debug mode, but hopefully I can fix it myself.
Something similar seems to happen with other languages. I retrieve summaries etc. in the dutch language, but when the text on the moviemeter site contains characters from e.g. balkan languages (e.g. for the movie '4 Months, 3 Weeks And 2 Days') they end up as html-codes. Presumably the same goes for any character with a code > 255 ...

Sorry, was unable to reproduce it myself in an easy manner.
Can you please assist me in debugging.
Log files are *HUGE* and asynchrone, so I need you to import a clean *SINGLE* movie.
So follow the next steps please:
- Open Moving-Pictures configuration
- Locate one of the movies that clearly is giving you issues.
- Use Windows Explorer to 'move' that mediafile outside of MovPic import folder range, so move it from for example D:\Movies\Filename.mkv to D:\
- Verify the movie got removed inside MovPic config (takes a few secs tops)
- Enable scraper-debug mode, explanation at: http://code.google.com/p/imdbplus/wiki/WikiInstallScraper
- Leave MovPic config open and navigate to the LOG folder with Windows Explorer and delete the movingpictures.log file.
- Wait a few seconds and hit F5 to refresh Windows Explorer, if you see movingpictures.log be created again then delete and wait some more. Repeat until after 5-10 secs movingpictures.log does not get created anymore (this gives me a perfect clean log file containing just the problem).
- Now move the mediafile back to MovPic import folder, so move it form for example D:\ back to D:\Movies\
- Wait till MovPic gets it (MovPic config Importer Tab should show you a green circle soon that search-node found a match and then a white checkmark)
- At that point the log file already contains all I need. So close MovPic config, ZIP up just movingpictures.log file and attach it in here.

Moving Pictures scales down the high res pictures and shrinks the filesize as well so I can't just go to fanart or themoviedb and get the images without doing some extra work to get the file right...
