[QUOTE="ajs, post: 1285338, member: 68833"] The same, but as a developer I know that changing something that works without problems for years is bad luck, because all the edits introduce new problems, internal changes we can do, external (plugins) not always. Same thing, I have 4 HTPCs on Mediaportal, 2 HTPCs on Kodi, and one central server that hosts the media files, databases, and all the resources needed in the GUI for both Mediaportal and Kodi. I add movies to the database mostly from the Mediaportal GUI, lately in a semi-automatic or automatic mode, through MyVideoImporter. But before that I was adding and through the Configurator and GUI MyVideo. For all this time there was no problem. On the test machine, when I do debugging grabber I can add movies many times a day, I can zero database and add all movies from scratch, and also there was not a single problem, all information gets where it should. In fact, in Mediaportal everything is simpler, all the source code is available for viewing. As a developer, you can analyze not only the database architecture, but also how the database works in all modes. Add, Update, Display in Folder mode, Display in Database mode. And then it will be possible to discuss the architecture of the database, based on the source code that works with it. And after analyzing the necessary changes in the Source Code, Database, All plugins. We will be able to decide whether we can make these changes or not. You look from one side, I look from two sides. I am not against changes in the database structure, but these changes can lead to degradation of database runtime, lead to complete inoperability of some plugins, as well as lead to a complete change in the source code on the work and display Movies. So before you change something, you need to take a comprehensive approach to the analysis and scope of work, as well as the consequences. Although if you have a Pull Request ready, with all the changes, we can include it in the next Pre-release for testing. [/QUOTE]
