Syncing save games.
#1
Has anyone given much thought or done any work on syncing save games between multiple Kodi instances? Currently I'm mulling just making .kodi/userdata/Savestates/InGameSaves a mount point from my NAS since I run kodi instances on different platforms and I'm not sure how well the emulator save states will work cross platform, but I believe the in game saves should work so long as the same emulator is loading them at the very least.

I do think that the in game saves should be sub foldered between the emulator addons like the save states are though to avoid potential name collisions where the same game is available on multiple platforms which doesn't appear to be the case currently.

That would be an interesting addon. Maybe utilize the google drive addon already working and to create a syncing feature.

One of the features I've put a lot of time into recently is "saveplays", where all gameplay is saved to IPFS, and you use standard IPFS block syncing to share saved games between PCs.

For such purposes, it is better to use Dropbox.

Correct, OP should use a file sync service. My idea for saveplays is a distant feature and addresses a different use case.
