MPSync (this replaces CDB_Sync) is a new process plugin that allows you to synchronize ALL your MediaPortal databases and thumbs from one main client onto a central location and then have any other client synchronize its database from this central location. This plugin caters only for database synchronizations as it expects that all your thumbs are already stored centrally.

The plugin settings are rather simple as can be seen from the below screenshot.

The settings will vary depending on the role of the client you are running the plugin on. Let us take the settings on the Master client.

Master Setup

• The client DB path should be the path where the local Mediaportal databases are located on the client.
• The server DB path should be the path where the centralized databases are located.
• Synchronization direction should be as in the picture, i.e. from client to server.
• Synchronization mode, should be "Propagate both additions and deletions".

Client Setup

• The client DB path should be the path were the local Mediaportal databases are located on the client.
• The server DB path should be the path where the centralized databases are located.
• Synchronization direction should be from server to client.
• Synchronization mode, should be "Propagate both additions and deletions".
