Hi All

I am getting this error when starting to sync to my movies
Checking My Movies API connection on server 127.0.0.1...

[ERROR] EIdReadTimeout: Read timed out.

!! NOTE: The connection to the My Movies API has changed in CME v4.0. Now CME can connect to the My Movies !!
!! API on both desktop and Windows Home Essentials / Home Server installs using port # 51415. !!
!! !!
!! The My Movies API runs inside of the "My Movies General Service". Please make sure that this service !!
!! is running in Windows Services (Windows Task Manager > Services tab) on your main My Movies PC. !!

ABORTING!

My Movie service is running I even restarted it. The api key has not changed no updated to my movies ahs been done this just started to day
Any thoughts

Okay, just want to make sure, "My Movies General Service" is running on the same PC as CCC?

Any PC changes that might have blocked some ports? Antivirus/firewall change?

no changes to firewall all microsoft firewalls are turned off. CCC is only running on the main computer General services siad running in task manager I eve restarted the service just to make sure

And this was working previously? Only recently stopped working? Or is this a new PC setup?

Any My Movies changes (new version?)?

last week it was working fine.

My Movies is 5.42

original PC no new install

Ok, so it looks like we need to troubleshoot. Let's start with the basics. Please gather screenshots showing:

Windows Task Manager > Services > make sure "My Movies General Service" is visible in the screenshot, like this:
Your firewall showing port 51415 is open in your inbound rules, like this:
For bonus points, include CCC in that firewall inbound rules screenshot.

ok will get done in the morning dinner party tonight for 20 5 courses

5-course dinner party?!

I'm on my way!!!

Good morning

I started my computer this morning and everything worked. CCC ran and linked to the database putting all the movies I added into CMC

Can't explain it

My Movies is single-threaded. It can't really handle more than 1 client at a time, and it talks to itself, so it is its own worst client. Perhaps it was busy talking to itself.

Regardless of the why, at least it's working now.
