Use one database (through advancedsetttings.xml) and specify sources.xml

Help and Support
1

Hello,

I came from raspbmc and I am wondering if I can still use the movie database on my NAS.
On raspbmc I had two files:
advancedsettings.xml en sources.xml.
Are these still support and where do I have to place them?

They look like:
advancedsettings.xml

<advancedsettings>
    <videodatabase>
        <type>mysql</type>
        <host>192.168.1.101</host>
        <port>3306</port>
        <user>xyz</user>
        <pass>abc</pass>
    </videodatabase> 

    <musicdatabase>
        <type>mysql</type>
        <host>192.168.1.101</host>
        <port>3306</port>
        <user>xyz</user>
        <pass>abc</pass>
    </musicdatabase>

    <photodatabase>
        <type>mysql</type>
        <host>192.168.1.101</host>
        <port>3306</port>
        <user>xyz</user>
        <pass>abc</pass>
    </photodatabase>

No change for that, supported as always in xbmc/kodi they go into /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/

Thanks!

What is the best way to place the files there? Through ftp, samba or?

5

SCP is the easiest as the SSH server is already running

SCP… I am going to google that :slight_smile: Thanx
Found it, many thanks!
