when the xbmc is using the mysql , it just shows up on the other machine.
you would go into movies. and the new ones would be listed.
Verify the disney movies are in the desktop library as well
if you added the folder as a source , it should show up in the Video/files list. as well as your sources.xml ( if you peek)
IF you have a Mysql Admin program, you can also check the data if it got populated there as well
once it works in the desktop with the working library, lean over to the laptop , and start fresh
close xbmc, reopen it, and see if the movies show in the movies,
if they dont show up , there still needs to be some troubleshooting done with the logfile
this is what my logfile puts in when it loads for the advancedsettings section
Code:
