Okay, so here goes.
When I go into my Videos->Files, I right click on a movie and go to "Movie Information" to use IMDB to get the poster and all the information for the movie. I work on this for a while and I want to then set up my mySQL database between two computers. Basically, I want to get all of the information setup on one computer and export that all to the HTPC that I have setup with no mouse or keyboard. So I get the database set up and I edit the "advancedsettings.xml" file and all of the sudden when I right click on the file "Movie Information" is no longer an option. When I press "i" on the keyboard nothing happens. I have it set up so the default action is "choose" when selecting a file. Instead, it plays the movie. Now, when I remove:
<videodatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>192.168.1.110</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>xbmc</user>
<pass>xbmc</pass>
<name>xbmc_video</name>
</videodatabase>
<musicdatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>192.168.1.110</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>xbmc</user>
<pass>xbmc</pass>
<name>xbmc_music</name>
from the advancedsettings.xml, it all works. This option, however, is going to cause problems with using one database. What is my issue? Please help!
2 other small issues:
1. Do I need to export my library everytime I add a new file? Or is that part of this sharing?
2. I used HeidiSQL and saw I have a database called "xbmc_video60" that is 1.5MB, that I did not create! What is with that?
Thanks in advance!
