[QUOTE="u28151, post: 956919, member: 12094"] I found a workaround for this: I export my database to Myfilms.xml (or whatever name you want to give it). Then I open the the film list from within MP. This will cause a backup of the xml file to be performed and also a new file will be created. This new xml file has a bit different structure and size so I assume that MyFilms plugin needs to convert the exported file to be useful (and that is probably why MP crashes when Myfilms are not able to perform conversion). The new file can then be made read-only, as long as all users have modify permissions in the folder. Hope this will work for you as well! ...and like you one would wish that Myfilms performed a check whether or not it was possible to modify the xml file - if not, revert to a read-only mode. [/QUOTE]
