[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 942997, member: 18896"] Are you able to reproduce this behaviour? Because then you simply have to enable debug verbosity log mode inside MediaPortal log files and recreate the full behaviour of where you have the movies, and when they 'dissapear'. Then provide us with your movingpictures.log and movingpictures.old.log files, as they will contain exactly 'why' it is happening. If you have to restart MediaPortal more then once to recreate the problem then be sure to rename the movingpictures.log file each time to like movpic.step1.log so that they are not removed. Only the one before current is saved as movingpictures.old.log and you might need more then two to capture the behaviour. Without log files it is just a guessing game. One obvious guess is that you have those specific movies on a NAS box and it like puts the drives to sleep, but keeps the UNC share active with no contents. At that point Moving-Pictures plugin thinks you have deleted all your movies and removes them from database. NAS comes fully back to life and MovPic re-adds the movies. It has full support for off-line media, but it has to be able to 'detect' in a correct way that the media/share/volume is totally gone from the system and not appear to be active, but "empty". The log file would show all of this in great detail and even provide insight into a solution. [/QUOTE]
