I've XBMC 12.2 running on my home server.
I've already configured it with a MySQL db, and now wanted my XBian B1.0/B1.1 to use that db.
I've put the same advancedsettings.xml in it, but it does not seem work very well.
I've followed to the letter the topic on the XBMC wiki, but I could not do the same on the Xbian one because the wiki seems to be down
(http://www.xbian.org/contact-and-support/tutorials/ )

Anyone here uses a shared db?
I've also tried exporting an XBMC backup from my 'main' machine and restoring it to my Pi.. but to no avail :/

Thanks everyone!

Hi,
Yes, XBian works quite well with a shared db.

A few things...

• An xbmc.log would be helpful.
• What does "it does not seem work very well" mean?
• You haven't indicated what OS your home server is. (my guess is you haven't shared the files on your server properly)
