[mythtv-users] Video Library not functioning

I had a working Mythtv Frontend with Video Library.
I'm not sure what I did to break it. The last think I did to try to fix it was:Empty the videometadata table and run mythutil --scanvideos.

Here is what it is doing now:When I use Mythtv Frontend I see a list of movies with no information or art work.
Here is a dump of the videometadata from MySQL for only one move:
intid, title, subtitle, tagline, director, studio, plot, rating, inetref, collectionref, homepage, year, releasedate, userrating, length, playcount, season, episode, showlevel, filename, hash, coverfile, childid, browse, watched, processed, playcommand, category, trailer, host, screenshot, banner, fanart, insertdate, contenttype
'4323', 'A League of Their Own', '', 'To achieve the incredible, you have to attempt the impossible.', 'Penny Marshall', NULL, 'Small-town sisters Dottie and Kit join an all-female baseball league formed after World War II brings pro baseball to a standstill. When their team hits the road with its drunken coach, the siblings find troubles and triumphs on and off the field.', 'Rated PG', 'tt0104694', '-1', '', '1992', '1992-01-01', '0', '122', '0', '0', '0', '1', 'Movies/A League of Their Own 1992.mp4', '6966f52ae57757a1', '', '-1', '1', '0', '1', NULL, '0', '', 'pvr', '', '', '', '2018-05-27 10:03:23', 'MOVIE'
The dump show the information that should be shown on the Mythtv Frontend. If I use the Frontend to "Edit Video Information" the information is blank(subtitle,plot). Like it did not read it from the videometadata table. If I make a change like add the missing art work and press the Done then I see the art work on the screen.
Then when I dump the videometadata table I see two rows now.# intid, title, subtitle, tagline, director, studio, plot, rating, inetref, collectionref, homepage, year, releasedate, userrating, length, playcount, season, episode, showlevel, filename, hash, coverfile, childid, browse, watched, processed, playcommand, category, trailer, host, screenshot, banner, fanart, insertdate, contenttype'4323', 'A League of Their Own', '', 'To achieve the incredible, you have to attempt the impossible.', 'Penny Marshall', NULL, 'Small-town sisters Dottie and Kit join an all-female baseball league formed after World War II brings pro baseball to a standstill.

'4679', 'A League of Their Own 1992', '', NULL, 'Unknown', NULL, 'None', 'NR', '00000000', '-1', '', '1895', '0000-00-00', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '1', 'Movies/A League of Their Own 1992.mp4', '6966f52ae57757a1', 'A League of Their Own_coverart.jpg.640x480.jpg', '-1', '1', '0', '0', NULL, '0', '', 'pvr', '', '', 'A League of Their Own_fanart.jpg', '2018-05-27 10:40:19', 'MOVIE'

If I exit Mythtv Frontend and start it backup the art work is no longer shown for that movie.
$ mythfrontend --versionPlease attach all output as a file in bug reports.MythTV Version : v0.28.2-4-g519a3f5MythTV Branch : fixes/0.28Network Protocol : 88Library API : 0.28.20161120-1QT Version : 5.5.1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please let me know what other information you would need to help solve this problem.
I feel like these is now a disconnect from the Frontend Video Library screen and the database. Not sure how to get them back in sync. 
ThanksSteve
