I am not 100% sure if MP logs the correct grabber it ueses.
So just to be sure, did you really use IMDB as grabber, or something else?

I was using the imdb grabber (the default one) - I never really understood how to include other grabbers

Cheers,

Videos -> Video Database -> Settings -> Button: "Update Grabber Scripts"
Then select the script you want in the drop down menu on the left and click "add".

Reagrding your coverart issue, i have to test this here first. But wont have time for it today because of family.

So far I had never other grabber scripts in the drop down menu - but this is another story not for this thread.

I had a system crash (but presume no relation to the Alpha). So I have to revert to my last backup by WHS before the Alpha install.

You have to use the "update" button first

Just tested it

1. entered the Videos section in MP Conf.
2. Scan -> selected the shares -> "update Database" by using IMDB as grabber script
3. all movies were grabbed + coverart
4. when i now enter MyVideos i see all movies + covers

so i can not reproduce your issue.

Mmh,

As I had to restore a backup I didn't installed the Alpha again.

Thanks so far.

Lets wait and see in next release


Cheers,
