There must be something I overlooked, but I hit the wall on that one. Been trying to figure out for hours.
I have 3 machines running XBMC Eden and connected trough a (newly configured) mySql database on the same server that hosts my movie, image & music files.
Since this evening, the most recent machine won't display movies.
It does connect to the web, weather is updating, rss feeds as well. Fanart are displayed. It even lists the numbers of movies I have in the database, but can't display any of them, and doing a search won't lead to anything.
If I add a movie and request a database search, it will find that movie and the other machine will see it, but it still won't display anything in the movie list. Or the TV show list. or the music video list.
but the music list works OK.
The other machines all list the movies correctly.
Now, I know I have been playing with the configuration of that machine, trying to bring it to par with the other ones.
Is there anything in the config that could prevent it from displaying movies?
I tried to change the monitor resolution, to change the skin, to reload XBMC several times. I don't think it has anything to do with the database, I am under the impression it removes movies it feels won't play? The log files doesn't seem to show anything special; it seems identical to another machine's xbmc log...
That machine runs Eden on Windows 7 and a PC-to-TV card via S-Video on a CRT television (in the basement)
I did play a whole movie for a test no later than yesterday and had no issue.
There must be something I did to prevent movie display.
Under what condition will a movie not show in a list?
