Hi guys,
I have been using XBMC for abit over a year I migrated over from TEAM MEDIAPORTAL. First of all I would like to congratulate everyone who developed this wonderful piece of software and all the add-on developers.
My main machine running XBMC was a windows box and all the scrapping was done locally and my media was remotely on my NAS. Everything was running perfect. Well 2 days ago I decided it was time to add another XBMC terminal in my bedroom so decided to get a ATV2.
I want these 2 devices to keep track of my watched folders and store my thumbnails and fan art centrally so I don’t need to scrap it with both of them.
I followed the following and everything was working perfect regarding using a centralized MySQL database. http://lifehacker.com/5634515/how-to-syn...-the-house
I was reading that saving the thumbnails within MySQL wasn’t possible. Apperently some people had some success into centralizing it at least so I have these question to ask.
If anyone could shed some light for this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
Happy Holidays

- With XBMC Eden 11.0 is it still impossible to store the art within the MySQL DB?
- Whats the best practice to centralize it? Putting the album art within the Movie folder with the nfo file? If so does anyone have a good link for this procedure?
- What about using the method of pathsub? Like described here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=116783
If anyone could shed some light for this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
