Can it not do this as it breaks using a single filename, ie.
(Or at least I think this is the reason!?)

solution:
culprit is script.grab.fanart!!
have migrated to skin.helper all is well..

It looks like it's in the wrong place.

Code?

It works fine on machine that made the database.
Another machine that accesses sqldb adds the /.

I'm wandering if I need to add sources.xml to other machines ... will test.

The code for skin is same on both, it's skin.mimix in WIP, and assume Mimic will have same behaviour.

I assign a single image to a multiimage control in Mimic, and it works fine.

That is the issue.
Not your code, but for some reason it as adding a trailing / to the file path, ie. smb://something/tv/show/extrafanart/fanart.jpg/
This only happens on machine that isnt the machine that made sql db.
It has happened before and I have rad about it but just can't remember the fumblings to fix!

Quick fix would be to ditch sql db and come back to PKC

NoooooOOoooOOooooooo.... lol haha how you doing Ian?

To add to this, my W7 pc in lounge, same setup works!? One that setup db works, again same. One in bedroom has this annoying trailing / everywhere!!!??
Have reset that box umpteem times to no avail.
Still have to try adding sources.xml to it, will see if lounge machine has a sources.xml.

sources.xml dont help
