To be perfectly clear, concurrency (multiple users doing stuff at the same time) is perfectly possible with SQLite.The reasons it doesn't work well is because it is done via file locking and that doesn't work well via Windows, especially when done via network. If however the software is written with a lot of safeguards in place (detecting if a concurrent action is taking place, etc), it is possible and lot of SQLite based projects actually make it work just fine.But it requires rewrites in MediaPortal and most plugins, and with the work on MediaPortal 2 being done that is for the most part futile right now to even consider.
