>>Hi,
>>I'm currently running version 0.18.1 of MythTV and am unable to download
>>movie posters for MythVideo. When using the Search IMDB option within
>>Video Manager it successfully identifies the correct entry and downloads

>>If I run imdb.pl -P manually from the shell giving the IMDB id as a

>>The directory specified within Videos/General settings does exist and the

>>The command specified to search for movie posters remains unchanged from

>>Any ideas? Am I missing something blatantly obvious?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm afraid the frontend and backend are on
the same machine.
My videos are in /var/mythtv/video and attempting to have posters stored in
/var/mythtv/posters.
