DuckBoxAPI exception <-> iDream in Valerie Plugin loads no artist background anymore

Hi,
i'm using PV with the iDream / MerlinMusicPlayer Plugin on OpenATV 4.2.
Worked like a charm for years, but it doesn't load Background Pictures from 
duckbox.info via DuckBoxAPI anymore (don't know since when).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.searching for covers in iDream Plugin for Music Artist in db

2. Debug-output (pimped)
>>> D <<<  Arts::preSave -> 
url=/media/usb/iDream/downloaded_covers/Adele-Wallpaper-adele-30384253-1280-800.
jpg

3.the Duckbox-URL which is used is:
http://val.duckbox.info/cgi-bin/convert2user.py?id=adele;type=backdrop;user=true
;isurl=false

called from Arts.py
   if url[0] == "/": #FILE
      self.save(self.URL + self.CONVERT2USER + "?id=" + id + ";type=" + type + ";user=true;isurl=false", url, overwrite=overwrite, useDuck=True)

with the filename of the backdrop.jpg found before from the plugin, e.g.
>>> D <<<  Arts::preSave -> id=adele type=backdrop url= 
user:///media/usb/iDream/downloaded_covers/Adele-Wallpaper-adele-30384253-1280-8
00.jpg

Here's the log:
22:44:09.0032591  >>> U <<<

22:44:09.0043655  >>> D <<<  Arts::preSave -> 
self.save(http://val.duckbox.info/cgi-bin/convert2user.py;id=adele;type=backdrop
;user=true;isurl=false, url, overwrite=overwrite, useDuck=True)
22:44:09.0045214  >>> D <<<  Arts::save -> 
DuckboxAPI.sendFile(http://val.duckbox.info/cgi-bin/convert2user.py?id=adele;typ
e=backdrop;user=true;isurl=false, 
/media/usb/iDream/downloaded_covers/Adele-adele-26396167-1920-1080.png, ())
22:44:09.0047270  >>> U <<<  EXCEPTION ON DUCKAPI
22:44:09.0049894  >>> D <<<  Arts::save -> urlresponse=

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Throw no EXCEPTION, but return an Image.m1v back as backdrop cover

What version of the product are you using?
Revision?
r1295
