copy database & Thumbnails from OSX to ATV2 - jwmail - 2013-03-19
Hi all,
I had some issues with the thumbnails on my ATV2 ( slow loading of thumbnails on the ATV2 but instant on iMac) It all started on Frodo, In Eden no problems.
I was not able to find a solution so I thought, well maybe it's the database or Thumbnail cache. So I did a clean install on my iMac (Frodo 12.1), set up the sources and voila.... all thumbnails instantly on screen ( I placed folder.jpg in all folders of my media folders on my NAS).
So I though I copy the Database and Thumbnail folder from my iMac Userdata folder to my ATV2 Userdata folder but....no luck. No display of any thumbnails....
So the questions is: Can you just copy the Database folder and Thumbnail folder from OSX to ATV2? or is it a different fiel format/structure? Or did I forget some files?
I found out what I did wrong: forgot to reset permissions...(chown -R mobile:mobile /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/). So now I can see the thumbnails but still they load very slowly..
And another question is: How can I speed up the display of thumbnails. The folder.jpg files are around 500*500 pixels
Thanks in advance,
JW

Normally only the initial show should be slow (cause it caches it then) - after that they should showup fast ...
