[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 558771, member: 18896"] There is no hard lock on the database file, so corruption can occur very fast when more then one computer uses MovingPictures on the same file. So as wb228 explained, you can keep a central database, but then copy it to each system before you launch MediaPortal. [b]Note:[/b] This only works if both systems access the movies the same way, because a "D:\Movies\blabla.avi" will only work on the one that has that movie on the D: drive. You can however use UNC tricks, because "\\ComputerA\Share\blabla.avi" will work from ComputerB, but also from ComputerA itself. The MP-TVSeries plugin uses a seperate database, so you can simply ommit that from the database sync. [/QUOTE]
