I looked around and I am certain I just found the problem. Although I have no idea how this happened but it must be related to the algorithm of the "C" command.
The problem is this:
there is a "\...\" in the middle of the path of every movie which definitely should not be there.
or at least thats what it shows in Kodi.
which seems to be ignored by Kodi itself but your script doesnt ignore it.
I will try to repair it by exporting, editing library.xml, and importing.
EDIT:
So after exporting I examined the videodb.xml (actual name of library.xml) and didnt find any "\...\"
so I decided to just try importing again.
that fixed it and posters started to update on their own. I ran the "c" command and thats working great also.
however, some of the paths which had \...\ no longer have it but some still do. some even have a double or triple one:
and even so they still play straight away with no problems.
so I am willing to leave this one for the X files but if you have any ideas of the cause and how to clean it up I would be interested to find out.
either way, thanks a lot for your help and the great script you wrote.
