Bill,

Still having trouble with the same movie I reported in the last version. This time I noticed you added a changemovie.log file. Here is the contents:

Adding plot: Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber appear as Cavis Appythart and Millward Phelps, respectively--two jingle writers based loosely on Gilbert and Sullivan. The setting is 1880s London, and they've written a musical called "The Princess and the Plumber", which they plan to open on Christmas Eve. Cavis thinks the production will "teach London how to love". But children at nearby St. Bart's Church are planning a nativity play for the same evening, and they plan to feature the Star of Christmas, a religious artifact unseen by the public for decades. The London Post Gazette writes a front-page story about the nativity play and the Star, and Cavis and Millward hatch a plan to make their musical better than the children's play. In the end, they learn about the true meaning of Christmas.

End of log

Just had the same log info posted over on the XBMC forums

The error is fixed for the next build.

It was my hope to upload it today but have found another unrelated issue with using google to search for the movie ID, when testing the new build I deleted about 500 of my movie nfo files and noticed that after scraping 300 or so, google started blocking the search, not only that, it also has the effect of having me enter a image word before I can use google in my browser. Hopefully this will expire soon but either way, it would be prudent to remove this rather than have users of MC encounter the same issue, I will have to go back to the imdb search used in gen1, a shame really since google is far more accurate than the imdb.

Once i've dealt with this i'll upload the new build, it will be at some point this weekend.

Bill: thanks for the update. It is a shame that after all your work on the new gen that you have to revert back to gen 1. But, better than having issues. I also though the new search was much better (when it worked) .
