As superfly asked me, I have written some more detailed information down:

lb: local bible
wb: web bible

The bible mentioned first is the “first bible” and the other one the “second bible”.

The current situation:

Scenario 1: lb (- lb)
Not much to say about this. Text search will always work and will not cause any troubles.


Scenario 2: wb
Search results will not be complete (as we just search the verses in the db).
Problem:
we do not search the whole bible


Scenario 3: lb – wb
The search result will be complete as the lb has all verses in the db. However, the wb will start to download all chapters(!) which are not already downloaded, but appear in the search results.
Problem:
OpenLP will probably freeze for some time! Critical!


Scenario 4: wb – lb
Search result will not be complete (as the db does not contain all verses).
Problem:
we do not search the whole bible


Scenario 5: wb – wb
Search result will not be complete. Furthermore, the second bible has to download all chapters which are not downloaded yet, but needed (as the first bible lists the verses in the search result).
Problems:
we do not search the whole bible
OpenLP might freeze


It has to be taken into account, that the longer a wb is used, the more chapters it will have downloaded. At some point the user may not notice any difference between a lb and a wb (well, it'll take some time, till the last chapter is downloaded). However, a just registered wb will cause even more troubles (no search results at all, when used as first bible and many chapters to be downloaded when used as second bible).
So, that makes it more complicate for us to decide, what to do....

Cheers
