[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1052573, member: 18896"] For some reason MovPic gets confused and is unable to locate the latest version of 'IMDb+' inside the 'scripts' table. It settles on an older version which then contains bugs causing no-results and other weird things long sinde fixed. The only fix I have found as a sure fix is to do the following: [LIST=1] [*]inside MovPic config verify the IMDb+ version that MovPic is stuck on and write this down [*]open the movingpictures.db file with an SQLite editor and to open the 'scripts' table. [*]locate the most currect IMDb+ entry (somewhere near the very last row) and ensure it has [B]<version major="4" minor="9" point="28" />[/B] at the top to make sure you got the right one. [*]CTRL+A to select the entire field and CTRL+C to copy the content [*]now locate the 'scripts' table row for the IMDb+ entry that MovPic is stuck on as noted in 1st step [*]edit the field and replace the contents with CTRL+V from the correct/current one. [*]save db3 database file and open MovPic config to verify v4.9.28 is once again current version used by MovPic [/LIST] I will try to get together with @[USER=52219]ltfearme[/USER] to see if he can find out what keeps causing this. It has to do with the way MovPic upgrades its own internal scripts, and apperantly does that in a way that breaks IMDb+. For future reference, had you recovered MovPic with the exact same version that the database backup was created with, then it would all have been fine, and an upgrade afterwards would have worked fine. Restoring an older backup directly into a newer version of MovPic causes a seperate update/verify routine to be performed that appears to break IMDb+. That is my best guess anyway, it is a pretty damn random issue. [/QUOTE]
