MovingPictures networked database (1 Viewer)

[eetaylog]

Is there any way to have a central database for MovingPictures so that clients on a network can access the movie information and pointers from a server machine rather than having to synchronise all the information locally?

I have a server with 300 odd movies and a MovingPictures datbase that i dont really want to have to keep in synch with my two client machines.

Same question goes for TVSeries and Music i guess, though ill have to start the same thread in those forums unless someone can give me an idea in this thread of a solution for those plugins as well?

TIA

Hello, for MovingPictures and TVSeries centsrised database support should be coded by someone. However for music as I remember our dev @regeszter did such changes and he have test build

My Video and My Music can use MySQL database. You can download an installer here.

Are those 2 clients accessing the database at the same time, at a specific moment?
If not, have a look here: http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/UserGuides/CentralisedDatabases
But read the note!

There is also a link to the MPSync plugin on the top of the page, which could help you out.

I have 3 clients that all stay in sync by two things i use Ember Media Manager so all the info posters and covers download in the same folder as the movie file. It takes a little work to configure so it only looks there and not online! Then i use trakt the keep the watched state.

I have to find the link to the new guys that took over amber if anyone wants it and it don't break any rules I'll post it

+1 for Trakt.

I use it to sync 4 client machines, and also use the website for lists and calendar functions.

you know you can also see that in the Trakt GUI with-in MP as well.

Ah, yes of course - great point!

I meant to say that even if away from a MP machine, I can access all my Trakt data via their website.
