 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |
Forum Index : Microcontroller and PC projects : OpenELEC - How do you backup the 'Viewed ticks'....

I know that OpenELEC is now discontinued as far as development is concerned, but I would like to know how you backup the files that tell OE what files have been played. This is done by OE putting a "Tick" icon to the right of the filename, of any file you have previously played. The paths to the media are always going to be the same even if I rebuild the OE machine(Raspberry Pi B), so I would like to be able to backup the file(s) that tell OE where those "Ticks" need to be. The replacement for OE is LibreELEC, but it flatly refuses to see ANY of my Samba servers - they simply don't exist to LE, despite Windoze seeing them, Mint seeing them, and OE seeing them. I have posted a thread on the LE forums about this, so we will see what they come back with with respect to that. Anyway, back on OE - can someone tell me what I need to do to backup the "Watched/tick" file vs the "Not-watched/no tick" for any given video? I did not post this on the LE forums, as I figured that as OE is now discontinued, they would not want questions like this on an older now unsupported version on their forums. Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

Somewhere, OpenELEC has a database where this metadata is stored. I *think* they used SQLite, so somewhere in your OE filesystem there's a binary called *.sqlite or *.db or some other. There are a bunch of simple SQLite front ends that can help you work out the database schema, and you should be able to list the paths of the watched files from there. Depends how happy you are with playing with SQL queries. |
