Syncing configuration between computers #7009

System information

Please provide information about your system and the version of Clementine used.

Expected behaviour / actual behaviour

Sync my clementine configuration and data between two computers. I can sync my music library (without Clementine), but I would like to sync configuration (interface, behavior, radio streams, podcast list, ...). A simple export/import would be a good first step.

I'm not sure that syncing the .conf/Clementine/Clementine.conf would work (is there dependency with the DB ?)

Steps to reproduce the problem (only for bugs)

N/A

I don't think the config file has any dependencies on the database, but the podcast list is in a database table. You could try copying the entire config directory then changing the library paths, if they're different.

If the data directory is in the same directory as the binary, then Clementine uses a portable mode and uses relative paths. I'm not sure what the original intention was, but I guess it was probably meant to allow an installation on removable media.
