There is a chance that updating to the new one can break some other plugins.

Hmm, so what is the benefit of this version (except breaking plugins)?

Well, I'm not sure why this plugin actually needs a newer version. I'm still using v6 even on my other applications, not only MP plugins.
The problem is the MAJOR version number. If a plugin is compilled against v6(current MP version), then it cannot use other version like v9 in this case. And if I'm not mistaken there is no way how to load two different versions of the same assembly within one application domain.

The version 6.0.6.17820 is included in official MP1 installation.

Hmmm ... need update it ...

@catavolt You can check how DVDArt plugin works with Newtonsoft.Json.dll 13.0.3 library, don't forget to save (backup) the version that works for you.

THX Andrew - tested and it does NOT work
The only one working (and is installed by plugin itself) is the attached one 9.0.1.19813

@m3rcury It is possible to rebuild the DVDArt plugin with the new version Newtonsoft.Json.dll 13.0.3 library?

Yes, it cannot work. As I sad before, the problem is MAJOR version (the first number). The current DVDArt plugin requires v9, nothing else.
It is common problem for Newtonsoft.Json.
If the plugin needs a new version, it has two options:
-implement source code directly into the plugin's code
-use another application domain

So if official MP instalation updates the library to v13 then all plugins(using Newtonsoft.Json) must update its code too.

FH and LMH work with different version Newton.Json without problem

Hmm, if I overwrite current v6 version by v13 then my own plugin(v6) will stop working.
Sorry, what is FH and LMH?
