Same My TV Series DB on two MP (1 Viewer)

[WhyTea]

Hi!
I've two MP and I want to use the same TV Series DB on both machines.
So I saved the tvseries.db3 on my NAS.

On the first MP where I imported the series everything works fine.
On the second machine the db works fine but I haven't any pictures.

Can I adjust the folder where the pictures were saved?

Thx

Hi there

I am very successfully using same DB and pictures using this setup:
UserGuides/CentralisedDatabases - MediaPortal Manual Documentation

Take note of the warning at the top of that page and shout if you struggle.

I run like that as well, just remember to make sure you don't run MP on both computers at the same time! This will fu.. up your database, and gone are all your viewed settings.
Did that one time, and damn i had a lot of trouble skimming through all my series to find out how far i had gotten!

i had problems using centralised database as you cant use both mp at the same time.

what i do is using a bat i make one of the htpc copy the db file to local. then the other htpc does use the database of the server.

this way you can only manage the db from one htpc but it suits my needs.
