Changing location of Screen Scraper database

Is it possible to change the location of the screen scraper database from \resource\db to a network directory so two computers share the same DB?

I know it could cause problems if shared simultaneously, but we would be sure one was out before the other logged-in.

thanks

MKlink /d worked great. Using that with Synctoy, I can update screen scraper database whenever I need to and update the other PC automatically. Nice.

It would be a great feature to be able to easily change the database location though.

There is not a way to do that

There is not a way to do that currently, though we have considered allowing one to set an alternate location for the database.

You could try setting up symbolic links.
