Full Version: Set portable data folder from commandline

I think it would be excellent to be able to set the portable data folder from the command line.

Currently it just uses "portable_data" under the current folder when running with -p

My suggestion is have the ability to add a flag to set the folder name to whatever per runtime from the commandline

example:

kodi -p --data=/tmp/pdata1
kodi -p --data=/tmp/portable_data2
kodi -p --data=testprofile

where testprofile would be under the current path same as it does "portable_data"
i chose to use export KODI_DATA for this functionality instead

but via commandline would still be nice
