Hi all,

I couldn't find this in any other thread, and hopefully it is in the right forum... Please move if it's not!

I have an ATV2 running the latest nightly (20111104).
I have an Ubuntu server running, with postgresql up and going.
I have created the user/database in postgres already, and it seems to be read by xbmc on startup, but not actioned...

Code:
17:03:51 T:107352064  NOTICE: No settings file to load to load (special://xbmc/system/advancedsettings.xml)

                                                <name>xbmc_music</name>

                                              </musicdatabase>

                                            </advancedsettings>

17:03:51 T:107352064 WARNING: VIDEO database configuration is experimental.

The problem is every connection is still trying sqlite on the ATV2, e.g

Code:
17:57:47 T:105521152   DEBUG: Connecting to sqlite:/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/Database/:MyVideos57.db

Any ideas how I can get XBMC on ATV2 to link to a postgres db?

Well this is crappy Smile

Can you point a beginner to what needs to be updated? There wouldn't be too many changes needed between mysql and postgres. I am happy to hack something out till it works... And once something is there, maybe someone will pick it up and tweak it a bit more anyway Smile

Cheers

maybe you should ask in the generic development forum ...
