[QUOTE="lanceuppercu, post: 562433, member: 64730"] i'd like to get this working without having any additional sync jobs running. what gets "corrupted" exactly when more than 1 computer tries to use(/access?) a shared database at the same time? thinking about it and to be honest, the watched flags and such arent an issue when it comes movies --movies, you've either seen them, or you have. the sheer volume of tv series means the watched flag is essential, which is why i wanted to stay with a local database for that. infact i'd like it if the 2nd machine was only able to run moving pictures to how i've set it up on the 1st machine (view/sorting/title art etc) but not be able make any changes to it (i could do this via folder share permissions), is that possible? if so, how do i go about setting up the shared database (and the folder for the downloaded backgrounds etc) whilst leaving the tv-series setup as it is? it would be greatly appreciated if someone could do an easy to follow guide, assume i have a share called [b]\\server\tv[/b] and i've set the permissions accordingly so that the windows login called: [b]admin[/b] has full modify permissions and [b]media[/b] login only has read only rights.
