[QUOTE="ptmuldoon, post: 423010, member: 84275"] Is it possible to setup the MediaPortalDirs file to point a webserver location for sharing of the databases? With the number of netflix and other plugins, I would that it could be feasible to develop a plugin where the user could webstream their own file collection that is stored on a central web server (or there own home server assigned a dns address). So is something like this possible to do in the MediaPortalDirs file? FYI.. I did try it, but the databases are not being created, even with the folder permissions set to 777. [code]  <Dir id = "Database"> <Path>http://www.sample.com/Configs\Database\</Path> </Dir>  <Dir id = "Thumbs"> <Path>http://www.sample.com/Configs\Thumbs\</Path> </Dir> [/code] [/QUOTE]
