Broken music database?

Hi everybody, I've got a problem I can't fix! Sad

Before my XBMC was perfect, no problem at all. Yesterday I add a new artist to my Music, so I move the artist folder in the music folder, I opened XBMC and updated the library.... disaster!
For some reason, I lost all artist fanarts and album fanarts. The problem is that now nothing is scraped, I tried (I think) everything, but I can't download again all the fanarts (I use Universal Scraper).
The real strange thing is that if I enter in a artist, I choose an album and I press "i", while loading information page, I can see both the artist fanart and the album one.
But, when in information page, the fanarts obviously are not present.

I really don't understand where could be the problem.

Help please! Tongue

Thumbnail cache has changed in the last nightlys. Had tried to fix it but stuck and couldn't made it work. I'm back to the old nightly 1/7/2012 and now everything is good...

Thanks for helping!
Anyway, the problem you describe isn't mine, because I'm using latest stable version (v11) and I never installed nightly builds.

For some reason I couldn't understand now I recover artist fanarts, but no album fanarts yet!
If I enter in an album and press "i", then reload information, the scraper doesn't find anything for every artist and every album.... I can only choose local fanart...

I really don't know what to think, I'm scared my database went corrupt for some reason, but also resetting it seems to not work....

This is the log: http://pastebin.com/e5Hq4w6K

from line 1 to line 50 -> opened xbmc
from line 51 to line 82 -> opened music menu
from line 83 to line 93 -> trying to scrape albums
from line 94 to line 126 -> closing xbmc

There are some errors in lines 51/82 that I really don't know what they refer.
In lines 83/93 xbmc seems to search TBNs in Thubnail folder, in fact those files are not present, don't know why because I have hundreds of tbn files, seems that albums are not more associated to filename.... also, seems that scraper doesn't work....

Suggestion?

Hmmm pastebin isn't co-operating right now. What happens if you choose one of the albums and refresh it? Can it find that one album?

Pastebin it's opening for me! Tongue

When I choose one album and scrape for it, it doesn't do nothing.
If I enter in the album infromation and I choose reload, it doesn't find anything.
I can only select local fanart.

Thanks for helping! Wink
