Schedule database updates?

[bromfman]

Is there a way to get XL to automatically refresh the Music and Movie databases at specified times? Maybe using xEvent? What I want is that XL looks for new music or movies during the night so I'll always have an up-to-date database. Many thanks.

I've actually thought of this as well. There is refresh database variable in xlobby. You may be able to program xevent to do this automatically, or what you may need to do is have an update screen where it's sole purpose is upon entering the screen it triggers the refresh database and returns to the menu screen. Then you can have xevent go to this update screen every night.

bmblank, the empty screen idea is not bad. I'll try this out on the weekend. Many thanks.
