Sargorn,
This looks like it is EXACTLY what I am looking for!
Unfortunatly I dont know how to do anything with scripts beyond installing an add-on from zip and running through programs.
Any chance of compling your code to an easy to use zip or pointing me in a direction to learn how to execute the code you have provided in XBMC?

Sorry if this is a pain in the ass newbie question, but i'd really love to export my watched list, update to frodo and restore my watched list and i'm not sure how to do it. Your solution seems like the answer but I dont know how to run it.

Thank you for all your help!

I don't really have the time to figure out how to run it directly from xbmc.

If you let us know what you're running xbmc on top of I'm sure someone could step by step it.

Basically though,
* Open a terminal window (command prompt).
* type: nano xbmcwatched.py
* paste in everything under "code:" above.
* hit Ctrl+O and then Enter to save.
* hit Ctrl+X to exit.
* type: chmod u+x xbmcwatched.py
* type: ./xbmcwatched.py export ~/.xbmc/userdata/Database/MyVideos60.db
(pretty sure EDEN was MyVideos60.db)
* This will create a new file in your current directory - watchedItems.p.
* If you're doing a fresh install, back up watchedItems.p.

Once you've installed Frodo:
Copy watchedItems.p back to your current directory and open up the terminal again.
type: ./xbmcwatched.py import /home/user/.xbmc/userdata/Database/MyVideos75.db
(MyVideos75.db is the new database file for frodo).
