I am experiencing the same problem.<br>
<br>
I spent yesterday looking into this after rebuilding one of my computers. It appears that the images are actually being downloaded and stored. However, the videometadata database table does not appear to be getting updated with the file names. If you do a manual metadata lookup on one with existing images (images downloaded prior to this problem), it will actually remove the file names from the table. I may look into this more but that is the extent of my investigation so far.<br>

Standard whipping boy for any anomalous Video Library behavior, are you using "file browse" mode?<div><div><br><br>

</div></blockquote><br><div>The "browse by" options control what the data is, the views control how the data is presented, and the mode controls where the data comes from. Normally, data comes from the videos and associated metadata stored in the database. When you enable "file browse" mode, you bypass the database and tell the Video Library to operate off the file system directly. Most strange behavior in the Video Library can be traced back to trying to manipulate the database when in this database-independent mode.</div>

I also had a full set of image directories (coverart, fanart, etc.) on both servers as storage groups. At some point, both were properly downloading and displaying images with the images residing in the respective server's image directories depending on where the video was located. Current behavior is that the storage group on the MBE is working as expected with image metadata while the SBE is not. I have worked around this with an NFS mount of the SBE video directory on the MBE and removing all the storage groups from the SBE. <br>
