Should the database be synced every time music is opened? about android-xbmcremote-sandbox HOT 2 OPEN

Good question. Also, I'm soon going to integrate a sync provider for the account manager that actually does synchronize. I think the best would be to give the user the possibility to define which section will be synchronized how often.

However, at least the first time the application is run should be synched automatically.

About the inapp-synching, it's not yet clear to me if we want to have sync buttons on every page or only on the home screen. I figure for screens that contains locally synched data, there isn't really a sync button necessary, however for screens that fetch data live from XBMC, there is (such as the files list screen).

I would agree the user should be able to customise this. I think there is a
case for the sync button on all screens. On the music for example it
contains locally synched data, but the user might decide this data is out
of date and the sync button can be pressed to refresh the local synced
database.
