Hello,
I have installed the Kodi 18 plugin on an enigma2 linux based satellite receiver. But I think my question probably relates to Kodi regardless of the platform it is installed on. I have around 250 movies that I want to add to a Kodi library and that number is growing all the time.
The Kodi Wiki states: "The Source is the main folder on your hard drive which contains your collection of Movies or TV Shows or Music Videos or Music." and "There is no limit to the number of Sources that can be added to Kodi for each media class."
But I also read, on these forums I think, based on peoples experiences it might not be a good idea to dump all your thousands of movies into the same source folder but instead to have several source folders for each media class and maybe better to have just a few hundred items in each source folder.. something to do with performance of Kodi.
Is this true? If so, what is the cut off for the max number of items that should be in each source folder?
Cheers,
Flex
