IMDB issue (1 Viewer)

[RICHARDG]

Not sure if this is a known bug or not but its a pain.
If I am in My videos and select a movie not in the database.
The IMDB dialog starts. I see it scan for a movie and if there are multiple entries or similar names. The list comes up and I get to pick the correct one.
I see it grab the actors and directors and just when I think its done.
Nothing. MP stops and it sits there.
the log shows this error repeatedly.
I am running the latest svn for 2.2.0

This is already known - a threading issue not necessarily occuring for everyone, blindly playing a movie as a workaround would get you the GUI back without restarting MP.

This will be fixed soon.
