This is something that should be done with MMS as Middle man eg. Init Master MM5.DB on MMS and all other MM5 installations should import that one and add own. I personally think that this is something for MMS not MM5. Assigning to Jiri for review. |
|
Martin is actually suggesting that MMW<-->MMW sync should be possible _without_ MMS running on a separate server (MMS could be run transparently on the MMW server, but that's a technical issue--the point is that users are asking for the possibility of syncing MMW instances). |
|
I'm with Peke on this one, having MMS for this purpose makes things easier to develop, but also to understand (how to resolve various sync-conflicts, etc.). The functionality could evolve to satisfy Rusty's point, but I'd definitely start simply with MMS (which should actually already work, at least somewhat, more testing needed). |
|
BTW: The MMS sync already works with multiple MM5 instances (including auto-playlists) -- at least it worked once I implemented it several years ago ;-) |
