My logfile:

xbmc.log

I have 2 raspberry pi's using the shared database as well. They select the database without issue and I see all the checkmarks, etc. They're using MyVideos72 database.

I had installed 11.0 the other night and it had no problem using the database, until now. I reinstalled to see if that would fix it and it did not.

I'm at a loss, especially since the log file loads the advancesettings without issue, mentions the video database configuration message, but doesn't ever do anything with the videos or music database it seems. My other Pi's have in the logfile:

Code:

02:05:01 T:1102348288  NOTICE: Running database version MyMusic30
02:05:01 T:1102348288  NOTICE: Running database version MyVideos72

But the desktop doesn't do anything with "Running database."

Thank you for any help.

For them to use the same video DB they must be on the same version (or in the case of a development version for the r-pi, the same recent build) of XBMC. v11 will use MyVideos60, but recent v12 beta/nightlies will use MyVideos72. If they used the same DB then the DB would get corrupt, like it did back when people tried it for v10 and pre-v11. It also serves as a safety feature, leaving the original DB untouched in case the update to the video DB went bad.

Doh, good catch. Thank you.
