P.S.
Are you sure you hit Clean Library (under settings - video - library - clean library) and not just update library ?

Still corrupted according to the recent log.

Go into your userdata\databases\ folder and delete any MyVideosxx entries, and then rescan your entire video library.

Only the database, not any of the actual files. You're just going to have to rescan afterwards and everything will come back.

You can try to export the whole library as a single file first, but it may not work with a corruped video database.
If you've a very large library, it will suck to have to retag all the watched items, but you're going to continue to have library problems if you don't rebuild the database. Retagging watched items goes quicker than you think when you can set whole seasons to watched easily. I've had to do it multiple times! Undecided

It's only mildy painful to lose your video database.. Confused

I've no clue how to setup the ATV, but I'm using symbolic links in a Windows environment to share thumbnails, and I get no lag on thumbnail loading.

if you use trakt you can restore your watched status through that
Get and request your ClearLOGOs / ClearART / TV Thumbs / Season Thumbs / Music ClearLOGOs / cdART / Artist Backgrounds / CD Covers from fanart.tv

Good tip! Forgot about that. That requires the trakt utilities add-on?
