Well here I'm again. Once again the Icelandic description falls out. Got no description, and I'll have to use the kvikmyndir.is scraper to get the Icelandic description. Here is a log for importing Iron Man 3. This happened some weeks ago, not sure when.

@kjarrig, the problem is on your side. Somehow your database got out of whack and you are stuck with IMDb+ v3.2.5 (for some unexplained reason MovPic during an upgrade does not use the latest IMDb+ version inside the Scripts table). This is why it is unable to use all the fixes I have applied on Icelandic language, or any other fixes for that matter.
It is an easy fix, if you can send me your database via dropbox or some other means.

It is an easy fix, so attached is the version that should work again.
All I did was open the file inside SQLite Browser, switch to the 'Browse Data' tab, go to the 'scripts' table, locate the last IMDb+ entry (usually the last entry in table, and it was the last ID = 98 in yours as well), and then copy and paste that to all the other IMDb+ entries. In reality I only needed to overwrite the 'wrong' one, which I believe was 3.2.5 in your case, but better safe then sorry.
I'm sure you have no idea what steps you exactly did to cause this 'corruption' to occur, and I am not going to report it as an issue with MovPic developers until I'm able to provide them with the steps to do so. At least the manual work-around works and it happens extremly rare.
PS: Verify via IMDb+ Info... if v4.9.24 updates correctly for you, because if you check now I bet you still see v3.2.5 (even if you get update message from IMDb+, although you might need to restart MePo to see v3.2.5 re-appear, unless of course the corruption is recent an me publishing a new version auto-fixes it). Either way the db3 file in attachment is the one you should use, as it will prevent error from coming back and causing major failure when issues re-occur.
