Have the developers gone and broken the MySQL support again between versions? I heard about this occuring from V10 to V11, why do they do this? Can someone explain to me in plain terms what ACTUAL logical reason there is for this? because it's EXTREMELY GODDAMNED annoying.
I've used multiple alpha / monthly releases of V12 and now I just realised in one of the newer builds (20120929-8a2d157) at least, it seems that XBMC has again 'forked' itself off to a new MySQL DB entry - am I imagining this?
EDIT:
I just read some documentation which seems to claim different builds will cause this to break but I definitely managed to run 2 different builds for a while without trouble, I guess I grabbed a version just too far newer when doing it. So frustrating.

New features and database improvements require the database to be converted into a few version. Before v11 (Eden) was release, it was actually possible to mix clients that needed two different database versions, and the result was that it destroyed the video database and people lost their libraries. The fact that XBMC makes a new database version is a safety feature to prevent losing all your stuff.
Is there a way we can make multiple versions compatible with each other? Yes, by never adding new features or making improvements to the video library. I don't really like that option, though.
