I think I did, but I didn't save/overwrite any of them.

I've used WordPad whenever viewing/editing any PVD document files. Could it have done that?

I have no idea. Is there a setting somewhere that controls this?

So, did the debug and/or html files posted above provide any useful information?

Okay, I finally got it. I've attached the imdb_debug and html files below.

I'm definitely using the plugin you attached several posts ago. I ran a search of my hard drive, and it didn't find the debug file.

Yep, my imdbconf file looks very similar to the sample. Both have the "1" in the last line. But that debug file just isn't where it should be.

Ugh, here we go again. The roles have once more refused to appear for new movies! 
Nostra, I replaced the IMDB plugin file, put the "1" back into the imdbconf file, and reproduced the problem, but I don't see any imdb_debug.txt file.

Hmm, that one works as well... which is weird, because I downloaded and tried that file (despite already having the latest version) a few days ago without success. What a bizarre issue this has been.

Yes, it also works without the "1" in the imdbconf file. Thanks very much for fixing the problem, Nostra, and for a terrific program in general! I also appreciate the efforts of everyone else who tried to help.

Well, I wan't able to reproduce the problem... because the roles are being downloaded again! How'd you do that?

Great! And does the "1" need to be in any particular place in the imdbconf.ini file?

« on: August 29, 2010, 01:13:46 am »Was a scandisk done? If the imdb.dll was cross-linked, strange thinks could happen. If scandisk was done, I'm more than happy to write a script (with a ton of debug info) to get the info necessary to resolve this issue.
Yes, I ran scandisk a couple of times with the "automatically fix file system errors" option selected. I didn't run it with "scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" selected, though. I can do that if there's a chance it will help.

Latest update: even the complete uninstall & reinstall didn't make a difference, before nor after putting my configuration and database files back into place.

The "Merge filmography" box is empty, not checked or shaded. I've attached the pvdconf.ini file below.

Thanks to the last few people who offered possible solutions! Unfortunately, none were successful. I haven't tried your latest one yet, Rick, but will shortly. First I wanted to mention something I just noticed, which may or may not be helpful. I tried importing the Actors information for a recently added movie using the AllMovie.com plugin, and both the actors and roles were downloaded successfully. I deleted the Actors field and tried the IMDB plugin once more, and as usual the roles were missing. Again, I don't know if that information is useful at all, but I just thought I'd throw it out there.

« on: August 26, 2010, 03:06:42 pm »New database with the same issue. Do we know that for sure? Does a plain text export on the new database show roles?
I hadn't run the plain text export on a new database yet, so I did that a minute ago and got the same result. No role data.

The Plain Text Export showed no role data for recently added movies.
The roles I enter myself are displayed correctly after editing the Actors field.
Removing my login information from the IMDB plugin had no effect.
Thanks for the tip about plugins/scripts! And I appreciate your efforts in trying to figure out why I'm having this issue.
