Hi

What version of xbmc is used in iphone/ipad ?
I've tryed to use my central mysql database by setting an advancedsettings.xml on the iphone but it doesn't seems to take count of it.

I believe it should work - check the debug log.

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.

I think its omitted, to get down dependencies and size. I could be wrong though, and it could be introduced again I would think.

No, it's working fine here.

Using ATV2 with 4.2.1 firmware.

I have in /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/advancedsettings.xml:

<advancedsettings>
<videodatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>10.11.12.100</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>xbmc</user>
<pass>xbmc</pass>
<name>xbmc_video</name>
</videodatabase>

<musicdatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>10.11.12.100</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>xbmc</user>
<pass>xbmc</pass>
<name>xbmc_music</name>
</musicdatabase>
</advancedsettings>

And it's working great!
Thanks Davilla and Team-XBMC!

note: I also set up my library such that the initial commit to the sql database was to an smb:// URL rather than a mounted filesystem, in order to be OS agnostic and also for super easy setup (just add advancedsettings.xml and you're done.)

Yeah works here as well. Just an issue with resume, but I think its with local DB as well, nothing seems to want to resume.....
