Everytime I try to run a script, I still have 700 in the queue to run. I can stop the script from running but I can't seem to clear the queue. This maybe what is causing some of my memory errors\issues and I would like to know if we can stop it somehow or if I have to look in an ini file to clear it there?

I just posted a similar, probably the same, concern. Have you had any luck resolving the queue issue? I liked your idea of searching the ini files to find the queue to purge, but so far I haven't found them. I see you also have had several reads on your issue by no response yet.
I'm evaluating the trial version of the software so far, but this issue is a serious enough one to prevent me from purchasing the product if it is not resolved. Basically, I like XXM better than others collection managers I have evaluated, so far. But, I cannot install software that causes messages about excessive CPU utilization. I suspect there is a significant bug that needs to be addressed.
Let me know if you found any way to remove items form the queue. Thanks. |

Now i can't suddenly update any films, because i have just had this ssame thing happen to me. I want to put in a new film and quick update it, and the script engine starts up a batch of 700 of my films to import from imdb. What the hell has happened?!
I go into te script engine and see it has queued all those films without me asking it to, and i can't do anything about it....
Edit: So i restarted the program, and directly open the script engine, and i see the queue is cleare, BUT, after a few seconds suddenly it updates itself with 700 films and automatically start to import information. So i stopped it and quit the program again. Very, very weird. |

It seems that your movies lost their import status. Check the following settings of your movies: open a movie -> Web -> "Imported from Internet" hast to be checked
If I uncheck this setting my movie gets automatically updated with the scripts that are noted on this movie page.
Maybe you can temporarily disable the Autoupdate by disabling the following setting: Files -> Options -> Magicscript -> "Update Movies/Actors Automatically in Background" |

I have now double checked what you wrote rocman, and the problem persists. I jumped into several of my films and they all have the "Imported from internet" checked. And I also disabled the AutoUpdate in background. But that didn't help anything. As soon as i try to update any single movie, or even try to add a new one, the scriptengine suddenly fills up with 700 films, and i can't stop it either. Can only shutdown the program again and wait for a proper response about this extremely annoying bug. |

I also had this problem - for a much smaller list; did the same, no result. In the end, I had to wait for the new update to complete (it's a drag if you don't have any stored links and must reselect titles)and then the queue emptied. |

I noticed after changing the automatic load option, it is reset back to automatic whenever I re-start XXM again.I would think the perferred settings should not reset. |

Have tried restarting the program several times since yesterday now and nothing works. Every time i start up the magicscript engine it populates several hundreds of movies and i can't do anything about it. And also, the program hangs up when either i choose to save, or the program itself saves after it's done its hundreds of film updates. So i have to stop the program from windows itself since the program doesn't answer at all. So even if i wait for hours for the script to complete it's job it fails when it tries to save the database. What have happened here?! I am at a total loss, since i know i haven't done anything remotely wrong. :/ |

Hello Shocker.
Sorry for the delay!!
A way to force XMM to not import movies is to set it like already imported.
For example, add the column "WebImported" to the Grid.
Now right-click and select the last option "Make grid editable"
Now, for all movies that are not imported, check the Webimported.
XMM will not try to import it again.
I will try to also add a function to do it automatically
Let me know,
Ale |

In 8045 it doesn't work as expected.
I clear the queue, close the engine. I select one file, press f7. XMM grabs the data and then goes on to the next movie - even though I have selected only one to update. |
