I plan on using some version of XBMC on every TV in the house. This will result in up to 5 people watching TV simultaneously. Would this be handled OK with a MySQL database and path substitution?
Would the resume times and such simply be the last one to have been played?

Sorry about the simple questions but just running scenarios through my head.

Thanks for input.

I use 3 clients with a shared MySQL DB and Thumbs (pathsubstitution) without any problems. Resuming, watchted state etc, everything is running perfectly.

Are the three clients simultaneous for the same file at times? Does it just use the last recorded resume time? Is MySQL OK with two identical users accessing it at the same time?

It will use the most recent resume data
