[QUOTE="hafblade, post: 779771, member: 110423"] Hi guys, I searched for it in the forum but didn't find a thread about it so I'll create one. :) Is there a plan to use a real database system in the future? I see so many plugins in the mediaportal environment and no plugin of these uses the database of the tv server which is really installed in every MediaPortal environment. Is there some special reason for this? In my opinion it's the same complexity to create a database application compared to an application which only works with xml files instead. There would be many benefits like locking data possibilities when many user work with the same set of data and faster data queries for example. Is it because you would have to create script for MySql AND MsSql or some other technical issue? I don't know the source code of MyFilms at the moment but I suppose there are some places to query data from the xml file. Would it be possible to plug in some database query classes in these places? I would love this because the infrastructure is there. In my opinion this would be the best solution for all plugins which use data for all clients. Even if you say "Man, everyone wants his own data in my home" this could be solved by using different user accounts or something like this. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
