mtehonica: where there other files on the other frontends that were watched? As it goes through the first frontend it writes to the DB each file, then when it gets to the next frontend it only looks for files that it doesnt already have in the DB.. so if the two frontends only have 1-2 files out of sync, the second only updates those 1-2 files it had watched the first didnt. Make sense?

Or are you saying the 1-2 files that it found on the other frontends arent getting updated everywhere?

There is 1 file on the second machine that is watched and there are 6 on the third machine. It find them find but does not update them on the other machines.

The first machine it checks is Office-iMac. It finds all 502 files on that one. Second machine is AppleTV and it finds 1. Third machine is Matt-MBP and doesn't find anything. Fourth machine is Mac Mini and it finds 6. This is all correct. Problem doesn't occur until it updates, and it doesn't push those changes from second, third or fourth machines. Make sense? lol

Your logic makes sense but why it would be doing that doesnt...
Can I get a copy of your xbmcsync.db?

FYI: My thought was that the DB wasn't getting updated from machines 2, 3 and 4 because if I run it with the full flag, it still doesn't push the updates.

Well.. I just can't get out of my own way. When I split path into its own argument, I broke everything not path. Left 1 stupid ) in there.........
Just uploaded 0.7.4... should fix it. Minimal testing done on it though

Glad to be of help. I am not really happy with the way the path argument works as it requires the path to be 100% the same on every box. I need to poke around and figure out how to tie that back into the scraped name or something... hopefully all of your frontends use the same path (I havent checked to see how they look to Windows, etc)

Another suggestion for you.... Automatic detection of xbmcsync.db? Search the same directory that xbmcsync.py is executed from for the database and if not found, create a new one? Would simplify it a little bit for people rather than having to explain the newdb argument.

Rockdawg: which version are you running on?

Looks like I'll be moving to using the path argument too because I have some movies that use a VIDEO_TS folder which makes all the movies look the same. Thanks for the updates and the progress!
