i was able to fix this by creating a file called:

DVDProfilerSettings.xml

in the Program Files\OpenMediaLibrary\Plugins folder with the following content

<settings>
<imagesPath>C:\Users\solomon\Dvd Profiler\Databases\Default\Images</imagesPath>
</settings>

I had the same problem - followed your fix and now all images are there - great.

I use DVD profiler as my xml database and one of the facilities within DVD 
Profiler 
is to use the "notes" input box for file location with entry as for example
 [ONLINELOCATION="\\DAVE\FILMdrive_10\My Films\Golden Compass"]
Is it possible for OML to pick this up and place the information in "disc and 
file" 
locations box, such as it does for the images info.
This would save me from having to enter this information for each file which 
would 
be a long job with a collection of 600 titles.

that's already supported although seemingly not documented anywhere.. it's this 
format:

[filepath]x:\\MyMoviesAreHere\\BadMovie1[/filepath]
[filepath disc=1]x:\\MyMoviesAreHere\\BadMovie1[/filepath]
[filepath disc=2b]x:\\MyMoviesAreHere\\BadMovie1[/filepath]

FYI. DVD Profiler (version 3.x) already has a tag <Location> for disc location.
This is entered on "Personal Information" section (just below "Notes") in the 
"Discs"
field, and can be unique for each disc.

Example (snippet) from XML export:

    <Discs>
      <Disc>
        <DescriptionSideA>Main Feature</DescriptionSideA>
        <DescriptionSideB/>
        <DiscIDSideA>A725A4214A42CFFA</DiscIDSideA>
        <DiscIDSideB/>
        <LabelSideA>88 Minutes</LabelSideA>
        <LabelSideB/>
        <DualLayeredSideA>True</DualLayeredSideA>
        <DualLayeredSideB>False</DualLayeredSideB>
        <DualSided>False</DualSided>
        <Location>\\eris\media\DVD\88 Minutes</Location>
        <Slot/>
      </Disc>
    </Discs>

Seems that the <Location> field is limited to only 30 characters within DVD 
Profiler,
proving to make this tag useless for any meaningful purpose.

yes - that was looked into already :/ i dunno why dvd profiler makes it so 
small.  
adding stuff to the notes field in dvdprofiler now lets you add things like 
tags etc 
as well.. the developer made it pretty robust

i'm working on a different way where you export your dvdprofiler document and 
use it 
as meta data for when a filescanner finds a new item.. so you would export your 
dvdprofiler with "batman" in it.. and then copy batman to your movie share.. 
the file 
scanner would find it and grab the meta data from dvdprofiler and add the title 
to 
OML.  this is working in our SQL branch - be a little bit till we merge it into 
the 
trunk
