I'm running one front+backend box (running KnoppMyth R4V5) and one 
frontend-only box (XBox). I rip DVDs on the frontend because my backend has no 
DVD drive yet, and watch them on both machines. So far so good, until I rename 
the videos and pretty them up with imdb metadata and poster pics using video 
setup.

On the backend box I can rename the video files ripped from DVD and 
successfully grab the imdb info and poster images. The menu has the movie 
poster icons and it looks great - as long as I watch the videos on the backend 
box.

However, when I bring up the video menu on the frontend XBox, every video's 
metadata displays as if they were just ripped - that is, all the metadata for 
every ripped DVD gets wiped out (reverts to the default ugly file names, loses 
the imdb number, notes, and poster filename). If I do the opposite, i.e. grab 
the imdb data on the Xbox, just the opposite happens, i.e. looks ok on the Xbox 
until viewing on the KnoppMyth box wipes out the metadata. 

In either case, the metadata is clobbered on both machines - not just the one 
which first triggers the erasure. Try to watch a video on the backend machine 
and the imdb info is back to default values as if the DVDs were just ripped.

I'm going to have a look at the MySQL logs tonight - meanwhile any tips or 
pointers on what might be happening here would be appreciated.
