[QUOTE="fforde, post: 543054, member: 52082"] You have a few questions here so I will go through one by one. First, the "Refresh Movie Info" action updates movie info from the data source originally used to pull the movie details. This is useful to get updated movie ratings or to fill in additional movie details as a site like themoviedb.org fleshes out it's movie details for your film. It will [B]not[/B] pull details from [I]another[/I] data source [I]unrelated[/I] to the original one you used though. What you [I]can[/I] do though is force a refresh from another data source in the Movie Manager. Often this will require the movie to be sent back to the importer for rematching. The separate "Send to Importer" action effectively removes the movie from your database and sends it to the importer for reassignment. You probably do not want to take this route because you will lose all watched data as well as IMDb information acquired from your original data source. None of these actions should produce duplicates in your database though. If this is what is happening then you are most definitely experiencing a bug. I have just tried playing around with these features a bit on my development machine and can not reproduce the duplicate movie issue you are describing. If you can provide detailed steps on how to reproduce the issue (preferably along with some [URL="http://en.moving-pictures.tv/wiki/FAQ#How_do_I_generate_useful_log_files.3F"]debug log files[/URL]) we will look into it.
