Remote FTP in RC4 (1 Viewer)

[deluxe_uk]

Hi. I have been using Mediaportal since 0.20 and its always been great. RC4 look even better, but i have a problem with the standard Movies section i have not had before.

Basically I have a defined movies folder that has a remote FTP folder defined. When I want to play something it is usually downloaded locally. However, in RC4 (using the same FTP path) I get a message 'missing file' when I click on My Movies on the main menu.

If I un-check the Remote FTP folder everything works fine. I have confirmed the path is correct (which has not changed) in FTP clients and it works fine.

Any idea why this has stopped working? The path is just /Movies/DVDR

Here is the error from the log
Thanks
