DVD Library is losing its mind...

[can3gxw]

For the past few weeks, my BM DVD Library has literally been losing its mind when it comes to my DVD/video files...

I have close to 200 movies on my HTPC that are all loaded and set inside the DVD library. About 5 times now in the past couple of months, when I go into the DVD Library it's completely empty and I have to rescan ALL the movies to reload them. This is taking hours and while it's happening we can't watch any movies.

I cannot tell you exactly what's happening with my HTPC, all I can think of is a power fluctuation makes the PC reboot and something gets borked in BM that makes it lose its indexes of movies loaded.

Has anyone else had this happen before? Where does the DVD library store its index file (such a thing?) Is there a better way to get my movie files/library to stay put?

It's getting frustrating now...

Thanks!!

I've had this happen, but it has always come back after a restart or reboot.

DVD library settings are stored in
C:\documents and settings\"username"\application data\snapstream\beyond media\plugins\dvd library

in a file called movies.xml. [note it may be under all users instead of username - not at my PC right now]

I always make a backup of it once I get it how I want it. Your movie posters are in a subdirectory of this if you want to edit or use different images.
