Hi all,
I'll explain you my problem: I've changed my paths at my library (before I used XBMS and now I'll use SMB). All is working fine but the TBNs and the fanarts. As I posted at forum and an user wrote me, TBN files are named using an MD5 hash of the path. What I want to do is to make a VBS or powershell script (I don't know how to program in perl) to do the following:

1.- Read the old path in the old database
2.- Calculate the MD5 hash of the old path
3.- Read the new path in the new database (using the same ID)
4.- Calculate the MD5 hash of the new path
5.- Rename (and move if necessary to the right folder) the TBN file from the old one to the new hash.

Can anyone help me for calculating the hash? I've found a DLL for this but it does the calc in a different manner. There is an example

Comparing 2 strings:

OLD PATH:
xbms://192.168.0.1:1400/DivxG/2008/2008-03/Dinero.Sucio.2008.SPANISH.DVDRIP.XVID
-EnDoR/

MD5: d33849846351ea642d2c3fd6bf378f31

NEW PATH:
smb://StorageSrv/DivxG/2008/2008-03
/Dinero.Sucio.2008.SPANISH.DVDRIP.XVID-EnDoR/

MD5: aa5a3fdc8fb916deb0288db4d24e147c


But the XBMC md5 hashes has only 8 characters... and that one has more than 8...
I want to do it because I have near 500 MB of tbn files and I don't know how to "automate" the cover/fanart search for elements that now exists in the database.

Thanks in advanced
