As i said already because of the security schemes of windows XP, Vista and 7
You can only enter and use the files from the user who is logged in.
So if i'm logged in as MrSpock xbne can't see the db of the administrator that is in the C:\Documents and Settings\administrator\Application Data\XBMC\userdata\Database.
Because it has no rights to see it by the security of the OS
Also the fact that the program can't be installed normally.
only by right click -> run as adminstrator.
even starting it up can only be right click -> run as adminstrator.
So for now it has nothing to do with not want to fill the database
It's because it don't see it.
and also by checking this link the DB runs on SQLlite and not MySQL
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...base-files
So first fix the permission's of installing so that the program install
Then big chance that it wil have no problem finding the database
I know the problem is with the new security of windows XP3 and probely windows vista and 7 because when i was running on Windows XP 64 Bit SP2 i had no problem with this program
And i run the same version of XBMC XBMCSetup-20111126-eac52fe-master.exe
By default XBMC uses a local SQLite db, but as an option you can run a MySQL db and have it centralized so that multiple machines can share a single db.
