[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1266776, member: 153283"] Hi ajs I have some time to look at syncing other MediaPortal databases than VideoDatabase5.db3. Just to be clear, my syncing app does not simply copy a .db3 file that has been updated in one folder to all other relevant folders. My app programmatically ensures that all of the data in the changed database is up-to-date. This approach takes quite a bit of coding and is not trivial. Therefore, I need to know what databases you REALLY need to synchronize because it will take me some time to program. I am going to start with the FolderDatabase3.db3 because I only need to update two tables. If you want me to have a go at your databases please let me know which ones to look at first and I'll get back to you - don't forget to let me know which app uses each database so I'll know how to load it into my system. Update: I forgot to mention that my sync app also maintains the VideoDatabaseV5.db3 database; i.e. when physical video files or folders are deleted, references to those files/folders in the VideoDatabaseV5 database are also deleted. I notice that FolderDatabase3.db3 on my system have many references to non-existent files and folders, so I'll have to ensure that only current files and folders remain in the database. The FanartHandler.db3 database has a similar issue and I also have found numerous images on my hard drives related to films that I have actually watched and deleted. Tony [/QUOTE]
