I created the advancedsettings.xml to relocate/create the database on the NAS, but I cannot get it to work probably...

What am i doing wrong?

Why are you mixing MySQL with a SMB path? The only valid parameter for <host> in with MySQL as the DB Type is a hostname or an IP Address.

If you want to us MySQL then set up the database and put the hostname in the <host> field. If you're wanting to move the SQLite database to a SMB path to be shared my multiple XBMC instances, that is not supported. Use MySQL instead...
