This addon does not touch the db so that must be a problem with xbmc. You are using alpha you know

hmmm again. I did some experimenting. If i remove the duplicates of a movie from the library (from within the xbmc gui), then go to settings->video->library and choose clean library. And then after cleaning i go to videos files, select the movie source and start a scanning for new content, then no duplicates are added.

Its only if i download something new and the update process is called upon by library watchdog that i get multiple instances of each movie. Does it call the function in a different matter then when i choose it manually?

It should be the same. My guess is that whatever program you use to download writes some temporary files and then deletes them when finished. Do you have 'clean library' on in the addon settings on? That will prevent duplicates when files are moved.

So is there anyway for this to work with windows smb shares? As someone suggested, i mounted my smb share "F:/User" in the xbmc (raspberry pi xbian) by going to "system/file manager/add sources/add network location". After this i added two folders as media sources, "F:/User/Movies" for movies and "F/User/Tv Shows" (video/add files) for tv shows and i selected "Exclude path from library updates" for both. Yet, whenever i add something in one of the above folders xbmc does not update.

Anyone?

Please see first post. If you're sure your setup is correct, then please post a debug log.
