GOTHAM nightlies

I started with deb building and putting to APT repo for "xbian-package-xbmc-gotham-nightly". Currently there is git from Oct-04. If someone want to run these, just do

Code:

sudo -i
apt-get update
apt-get install xbian-package-xbmc-gotham-nightly

Please be aware, that gotham uses different DB structure for Videos/Movies. If you are on MySQL, DB will be upgraded, renamed and previous version will be kept. So in case of reinstall back to standard xbmc (Frodo 12.2) it will pickup the old version again.

I don't know in details what happens in case DB are locally stored but let's assume the original content is not preserved - SQLite DBs are just upgraded. Then BEFORE installing Gotham, do a snapshot from /home with

Code:

sudo -i
btrfs-auto-snapshot snapshot --name before_gotham home

OR use the new backuphome function in xbian-config.

then in case of going back to Frodo, do:

Code:

sudo -i
stop xbmc
btrfs-auto-snapshot rollback home@before_gotham
reboot (to remount /home with the restored home)

then

Code:

sudo -i
apt-get install xbian-package-xbmc

@b0rna

just out of curiosity, how big is your Movies/TVShows library ? do you store as local DB files or shared MySQL setup ?
