VIDEO, MUSIC DATABASE ON NETWORK SHARE - R08 071C5 - 2024-05-01
Dear Friends
I have several Android Kodi clients at home and an smb share on my qnap nas to my videos, music and roms.
Unfortunately I need to update every single client if I add new mediafiles on my NAS.
How can I place my kodi databases on my nas share in order to update all kodi clients with a single database refresh.
Is there also a way to centralize all settings files, that all clients get updated as son as I change any settings of one client?
Do you have any additional ideas of centralization of data in order to prevent redundancy and extra work?
Thanks for your help
Rob

For a shared database:

It won't be practical to try and sync the settings unless every single client is on exactly the same hardware with exactly the same drive paths. Even then it might not work.
