=XBMC Database Details=
{{mininav| [[Development]] {{l2| [[Userdata]] }} }}
XBMC uses [http://www.sqlite.org/ SQLite], an open source light-weight SQL database-engine, to store all its library related data ([[Music Library|Music]], [[Video Library|Video]], and Program databases). By default, the database files (*.db) are stored in [[The UserData Folder]], specifically $HOME\UserData\Database\.


In addition to indexing media files when by user-selected Content settings, XBMC also puts a video in its database if you change any OSD setting while watching it. Resume points are stored in this database as well.
These entries are added to the database whether the affected video is part of the Video Library or not.


==Accessing the Database via SQLite application==
Database files can be transferred via FTP to a Windows-based computer and edited or analyzed with a SQLite graphical client. XBMC's version of the database engine should be compatible with the standard clients such as [http://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net SQLiteBrowser] or [http://bobmanc.home.comcast.net/sqlitecc.html SQLiteCC], (more available management-tools can be found in [http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=ManagementTools sqlite.org WIKI]).<br>
We recommend you use [http://www.yunqa.de/delphi/doku.php/products/sqlitespy/index SQLiteSpy version 1.5.2] or higher.
*[[HOW-TO: Use your computer to edit XBMC's (SQL) database-files]].


==Accessing the Database via XBMC Python==
= Introduction =
Many Python plugins (and some scripts) can use the information in the XBMC database to offer users additional convenience and functionality. The easiest way to access the XBMC database via XBMC Python is using the HTTPAPI call QueryMusicDatabase or QueryVideoDatabase.

▶ Userdata		 ▶ Databases


Introduction

Kodi uses SQLite, an open source light-weight SQL database-engine, to store all the library, add-on, EPG, textures and PVR related data using a number of specific databases. By default, the database files (*.db) are stored in the Kodi data folder\Userdata folder, specifically in \Database\.


Using the Databases

The databases are automatically maintained by Kodi. It is recommended that Kodi users do not access the database without good working knowledge of relational databases and SQL.

Database software is required to access the SQL databases. DB Browser for SQLite is available for Windows, macOS, Linux and FreeBSD.


Accessing the Databases with Kodi Python

Many Python plugins (and some scripts) can use the information in the Kodi database to offer users additional convenience and functionality. The easiest way to access the databases via Kodi Python is using JSON-RPC API


Database Versions

The following tables shows what database version is used for various Kodi versions. This can be useful to see what versions of Kodi can use MySQL sharing.
