[QUOTE="Gunn, post: 389951, member: 58222"] I'm having the same issue. I came to this forum to see if this was a known issue and how to workaround it, and well, perfect timing. :) It looks like mine is due to a slow internet connection. I have a satellite internet provider and on most nights, the thing gets -very- slow. The movie importer seems to be timing out. I have had no problems with the built in Videos of Media Portal finding everything. But its a crapshoot if Moving Pictures will find something. And even when it does, it usually doesn't download everything; there are a lot of fields left empty. Is there anyway to increase the timeout period? Or the number of retries before it bails out?
