The scraping, be it TV or Movies, be it for media in the internal, external or network drives, be it manual or automatic, for some reason freezes my OSXBMC.

I can search for titles manually and I can select from results but when scraping starts it just freezes and eventually XBMC malloc's and coredumps. I find it strange that I can see and select from title results manually (which means connecting and fetching works) but when selecting one and the actual gathering of information starts I get the progress bar ("Loading TV Show Details", for example) which just freezes there, as well as the response from XBMC.

Eventually, the application malloc's, as seen here: http://pastie.caboo.se/153540

I know the network is correct as I'm using it, I know XBMC can see it as it can see the title results. I know XBMC can write to the disc as the automated previews for video files (enabled) appear without problems.

I try to use mostly thetvdb and imdb, to keep things consistent.

Any ideas?

Gah. Got the subject wrong and I can't edit it. I wonder if the lack of replies will be because I'm being punished for this.
