I'm hoping for some advice or tips.
My previous setup was: Openelec (running 24/7), Couchpotato, Sickbeard, Headphones, and Sabnzbed (on my unRAID server 24/7) in perfect unison.
when a download was reported from any program it would then send a notification over to my openelec client which would then run a library scan. This meant that my library would always be up to date with the latest content available.
I recently decided to incorporate User Profiles into my setup due to the fact that there are many people in the household and I do not want to have my watched statuses mixed up. I downloaded an auto log off script so that after 15 minutes of inactivity Kodi will log off and remain on the profile selection screen.
The problem is that openelec will now spend the majority of its time in the profile selection screen which means that the notifications from sickbeard, coupotato, etc will not go through.
I changed the settings so that Kodi updates the library every time someone logs in, but I am trying to reduce the amount of updates that occur in order to minimize disks spinning up and down on my unRAID server.
Is there a way to retain the notification updates and have a unified library throughout the different profiles?
I've considered mysql but I've read that it is on its way out so I'd rather not invest time in setting that up.
I've also considered using Plexbmc and Mediabrowser libraries, but I believe those are reliant on skins supporting them.
