v18 Use Kodi 18 mysql library with Kodi 17?
#1
Hi.
According to http://kodi.wiki/view/Database_versions the library database of Kodi 18 is different from that in Kodi 17.
OK, but if I have both Kodi 17 and Kodi 18 in my network (LAN), how can I use the same mysql library for both?
Is it possible to do that?
If not, the only solution is to have two libraries: one for Kodi 18 and one for Kodi 17?

My advancedsettings.xml:

Code:
<videodatabase>
    <type>mysql</type>
    <host>192.168.1.6</host>
    <port>3306</port>
    <user>kodi</user>
    <pass>kodi</pass>
  </videodatabase> 
  <musicdatabase>
    <type>mysql</type>
    <host>192.168.1.6</host>
    <port>3306</port>
    <user>kodi</user>
    <pass>kodi</pass>
  </musicdatabase>
  <videolibrary>
    <importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>
    <importresumepoint>true</importresumepoint>
  </videolibrary>

Thanks.

NOTICE: Every Kodi "client" must run the same version of Kodi.

Ok... so I need two libraries.
So the only solution is to have two libraries: one for Kodi 18 and one for Kodi 17.

I'd stick to the v17 library as the main library, updating to a v18 database is easy enough.
