This is not specific to 0.9.9.11 or your database, I have noticed the same thing with 0.9.9.10 & I think earlier versions. Have not worked out a pattern but when adding a batch it only occurs on some movies so I suspected it was an interaction with imdb or AllMovie.com

patch, if you can reproduce the problem, please provide a log file (you know, the one created with -debug).

nostra:
It seems to be a problem in zelluloid producing an endless loop. I have not written the script, so It can take some time to make it functional again...

seabass:
so why isnt it happening with a new database..  ???  dont like to requerry all the information and Picutures for a new database over the Internet ..is there any possiblity to export the hole database including pictures and reimport them into a new database? I looked over the Export formats but I could find one that matches the requirements.
...or does somebody have an idea how to fix the database?

Thx

seabass:
ok I see there are enough export templates but I think its not going to work properly because of my sequels with episodes.. and the reimport  :(

But I think I could locate at least one problem there seems to be a problem with communication between scripts and PVD. PVD doesnt tell the omport scripts that the title of the movie does alredy exist or that the movie was successfully added.
I noticed, that if the filename differs a little from the original name of the movie in the internet database, the script writes a second entry with the exact movie name of the Iinternet database (same problem like Patch has).
And if I change the import script in the "Scan folders for new movies" function to the zelluloid script I get the error, that I have at least to submit a title or original title (I sent a bug report).
That problem would also explain the loop which I expirienced.. the zelluloid plugin doesnt get a feedback that the movie was added successfully and runs again and again and again  ::)

..its a pretty simple guess but I dont have a clue of databases so you have to decide if that could be the problem

nostra:
The problems seems to be not database related, but movie related... The database works just fine and there is no need to repair it or smth, just wait for a fixed script or use another one.
The file scanner is very flexible in configuration, so if you have problems detecting the right titles zou should consider change the regular expressions used or switch on-off one of the scanner smart options.
The loop has nothing to do with file scanner as well it just a bad written parsing routine in the script that produces endless loops if it needs to parse HTML code of certain type.
