[QUOTE="dir, post: 194570, member: 24485"] I've just started trying to get this up and running and noticed that I can specify the database location in the configuration dialog, but it doesn't "stick". I enter in \\path\path\path\TVSeriesDatabase4.db3, hit the "X" button to close (which stresses me each time because standard Windows behaviour it that this will lose all changes made, but there's no "OK" button so what choice do I have?:S ) When I re-enter the importer, it takes several extra seconds as if it's reading the database from my server location, but then shows 0 series/episodes/seasons, and the path has reverted to c:\program files\etc.... I know there's more fundamental issues with this but I just wanted to add my voice. I have 103 series, 800 seasons, and 6228 episodes on my server. So using a high school database from 1960 that doesn't handle concurrent locking is really going to kill MP's future. It's great to see that's there's a growing realisation that things need to get a bit more 21st century and hopefully things will migrate to a better database system. I'm happy to be a tester/guinea pig/debugger which may be appealing because of my large-ish system. I have several database systems installed or nearby. Cheers Dir [/QUOTE]
