Template:XBMC wiki toc/v HOW-TO:Sync multiple libraries/Contents
Requirements: These instructions require the latest nightly builds of XBMC (pre-Eden v11) or one of the Betas. Make sure all your XBMC devices are on the same build date (or at least close). |
If you have more than one XBMC device on your local network then you might want to synchronize them using a MySQL library. Using a MySQL library allows you to store information about your whole video library in a central database, so that multiple XBMC devices can access the same information at the same time. This gives you the ability to:
- Share watched and unwatched status for your media on all devices
- Stop watching a movie or TV show in one room then finish watching it in another room automatically
- Only one library to maintain for all devices
- Consolidate thumbnails and fanart to save hard drive space
