Hi All,
Hopefully someone can help me here. So I am trying to get multiple XBMC clients running off of one db. All my clients are frodo 12.2. I have MySQL installed on my synology. I have a movies and a series share on my synology. I have I access the 2 shares from my XBMC clients via smb.
I have followed the Share libraries with MySQL guide several times now, step for step and still can't get it working.
Everything works fine up until after the import of my db. The MySQL db creates correctly and the import runs correctly. It takes forever but eventually completes. I can then watch the imported stuff on my clients. but the issue comes in now where I then tell my main client to update library to pickup new stuff that has been downloaded. What happens then is that all my media files are then added via the update and I end up with duplicates on everything. I have tried update library, scan for new content, even the watchdog addon and I just get duplicates.
So I really don't know what is happening. it is really frustrating because I have started from scratch several times and every time it takes more than an hour to complete the import I suppose I could start from scratch but then I have to go through 10TB worth of media and set watch status again and who knows if the next library update will double up on everything again.
Can some please help me?
Regards
Richard
