I've been using XBMC in an unique box. Now I've split it in an Ubuntu Server and a Windows "Player" box. To make the Player more "disposable", I went through the XBMC "HOW-TO:Sync multiple libraries" tutorial. Everything works fine and I'm happy.
But I have some doubts:
1. Please confirm: all movie and TV shows data are now in the database, so no ".nfo" files are needed (I may delete them).
2. Where will the thumbnails be? Inside a folder somewhere in my Ubuntu server (this is a FILE server and has no XBMC on it)? Or the database has paths to each of the movies' folders (so every XBMC box on the network will get the thumbnail from every movie folder).
3. Please confirm: to setup new Collections, I have to enter the MySQL database and register new ones there, using "my own hands".
4. Please confirm: when I add new movies, by entering any XBMC and pressing "Update Library" will update the MySQL database, so another XBMC box will also be updated.
Thanks! XBMC is really a wonderful project!
