I am playing around with a menu system for Kodi which I want to include a few shortcuts.
It will be a backup menu to Export and Import Kodi's Video Library without the need to go into the Kodi System/Media/Library options.
I found the Export Library function: exportlibrary(type [, exportSingeFile, exportThumbs, overwrite, exportActorThumbs])
However, I see no "Import" Library function listed anywhere. Of course I guessed at changing exportlibrary to importlibrary but that didn't work.
Anyone have any idea what that might be, or where to find it in inside Kodi to help this idiot out? lol

If you are exporting to Separate Files, then you use the Update Library function, which is available in the Left Sideblade Menu

Yes, I understand that way of doing it. What I am really trying to do is a menu option to do a Library dump of a single file to my hard drive as a backup, refresh my Kodi, then import the Library back in. I have the commands to export, update and clean but the import feature is not one I can figure out the command for. I do appreciate your reply. Thank you.

Because it does not exist, unfortunately

The "Library builtins" are mentioned here:

If you search for "export" you will find the section which you already figured out. Try searching for "import" and you won't find anything. If you want that feature, please create a feature request at the specific subforum

Okay, thank you for the reply. Much appreciated.
