I recently set up a mates with a media center box with XBMC on it and theres a really weird problem, every time i go to scan for content it stops and never finishes, the screen goes black and flickers then ends up at the main menu.
And when i put the autoupdate library on startup it never makes it to the main menu and seems to get stuck in some sort of loop with the screen flickering black.
I've never had that before.
Any ideas?

Not without any more info - you need to post a debug log.

Try the xbmc.old.log file and see if that has the details.

i suspect you're bitten by an old mymovies.xml parsing bug. try removing /media/drive1/Movies/BBCDVD10892/mymovies.xml
