I'm having a hard time locating the specifics of what using a centralized databases (MySQL in this case) offers you when dealing with multiple XBMC devices.

What info is actually kept in the MySQL database?

basically just the scraper info data... no images

Thanks, that's what I was trying to determine. The database schema has a field for Thumbnails in the movie table, but only Fan Art URL. So I wasn't sure if thumbnails where kept in the DB or it was also a URL.

A related question. I'm using EMM-r to pre-fetch thumbnails, fanart, and generate NFO. When XBMC scrapes and reads the NFO, then populate info into the Movie DB, I assume it's simply populating the Thumbnail and Fanart fields with a path to where the files are kept with the movie itself on my NAS?

Thus, what I'm ultimately trying to confirm, is that with MySQL, and my use of EMM-R< each XBMC device is not caching any local images/file info?
