Movie covers do not match movie.

I recently installed a new media center for another TV in my home.  I haven't changed the server, just added this WMC PC with MB Classic installed.

 

I'm noticing that the movie covers are not matching the footnote movie name or metadata.  The server metadata is correct, including the jpgs and the xml files.  However, MB Classic is showing a different poster and plays  a different movie.  

 

Any ideas?  I've uninstalled MB Classic and re installed and deleted the MB Classic files under appdata.

 

I was about to upload a simple screen shot showing the metadata and the coverflow view that isn't working, but it doesn't look like the forums will allow it.

 

Starting from the top, the first maybe 4 movies seem to match, but as soon as I get to the fifth or so movie, the covers are showing movies that aren't matching.

Thanks for replying ebr.  I did compare the Web Client vs MBClassic and the Web client displays correctly as it always has.  My other WMC PC also displays correctly using MBClassic.

 

It appears that the forums will not allow me to attach a PNG screenshot (434KB) as I mentioned before. I'm not sure your link addresses this.  I've also tried a smaller JPG, but no luck.

 

Below the "attach files button" I have this:

 

You can upload up to Uploading is not allowed of files (Max. single file size: 10MB)

Got it, sorry ebr.  It looks like I had some old screenshots hanging in my profile and the max allowed was 1MB.

 

You can see in the attachments the new WMC PC, the other WMC PC I've had for a while (marked original) and then finally the webclient.

 

Only the new WMC PC is displaying incorrectly.

Follow the instructions in the link I gave you to embed the screen shot.  Don't attach it.

Find c:\programdata\mediabrowser-classic\imagecache on the MBC machine not working and delete the contents of that folder.
