HOW-TO:Share libraries using MySQL


 * For simple library sharing see: HOW-TO:Share libraries using UPnP

If you have more than one XBMC device on your local network then you might want to synchronize them using a MySQL library. Using a MySQL library allows you to store information about your whole video library in a central database, so that multiple XBMC devices can access the same information at the same time.
 * Introduction

This gives you the ability to do things like:
 * Share watched and unwatched status for your media on all devices
 * Stop watching a movie or TV show in one room then finish watching it in another room automatically
 * Only one library to maintain for all devices
