Anyone know if this would work the same way with the nightly Gotham build? I assume I could do this once for all 3 of my FTV's, so they all use thumbnails from the same NAS location?
I will be trying it with Gotham Beta 4. Since I have another XBMC on a laptop, it will be a good experiment. I don't have 3 FTVs at the moment, but I see that 2 or 3 more might be in my future.
I did this last night as well. I updated three devices to Gotham (firetv,ion,mac) and moved one Thumnails dir to my NAS. I then deleted the two other Thumnails directories. I then made sure each device had the updated advancedsettings.xml that had pathsubs for Thumnails and sources.xml. Worked great, I didn't notice any appreciable slowdown. My Thumnails dir weighs about 2gb.
