Databases

XBMC Database Details

XBMC utilizes ((http://www.sqlite.org/ SQLite)) - a lightweight SQL database engine - to store all its library related data (My Music, My Videos and My Programs). By default, database files (*.db) are stored in $HOME\UserData\Database.

Accessing the Database via SQLite application

Database files can be transferred via FTP to a Windows PC 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 SQLiteBrowser or SQLiteCC.

We recommend you use SQLiteSpy version 1.5.2 or higher.

TODO: The layout etc. will be explained in more detail later.
