Hello,
I´ve got some problems in configuring MySql to use it for kodi.
My OMV runs on a HP N40l. I´ve installed 1 HDD just for testing and put a few videos on it.
Now I would like to put the DB of kodi onto the SQL Server.
Things I did and i think they are working:
-Installed OMV
-Installed MySQL
-Configured eth to static
-Configured MySql in OMV as shown in the Screenshot
-Created and advancedsettings.xml as shown in the code
-Configured MySql in it´s own GUI as shown in the Screenshot
<?xml version="1.0"?>
-<advancedsettings>
-<videodatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>192.168.178.23</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>kodi</user>
<pass>kodi</pass>
</videodatabase>
-<videolibrary>
<importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>
<importresumepoint>true</importresumepoint>
</videolibrary>
</advancedsettings>

But it doenst work for me. I am not sure what I have to fill in the line in MySql "Host". What does that mean? The Host of my OMV? So 192.168.178.23?
And further.. What do I have to do exactly in OMV? Do I have to generate the user kodi, too? I am a beginner in OMW and MySql and I would hope someone could help me getting starting kodi working like I would.
And yeah there are some Tut´s but they are mostly outdatet.
Thanks a lot.
Ps: pls be patient of my bad english.
