    I was afraid you were gonna say something like that :) ... But I will do a complete reinstall... How is the best way do a backup, in your opinion... I don't wanna do a reinstall and the load a backup that contains my failures from this version...

    I would do the following:
    • Export your TV/Radio stations from the TVServer config. (Only required if you plan to competely uninstall your SQL solution too. Probably not necessary)
    • Rename the C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal directory into something else
    • Uninstall MediaPortal.
      • You can go as far as to drop the database too.
      • Verify that the directory C:\Program FIles (x86)\Team MediaPortal is gone.
      • If you like do a reboot.
    • Reinstall MediaPortal
      • Reload your TV/Radio stations from the export.xml created in the first step - if you have dropped the database
      • Reinstall your plugins/skins
      • Reconfigure the client - just the basic information, i.e. codecs and video, picture and music directories. Don't launch any update database activity
      • Launch MediaPortal once and close it again
    You can now start to restore data from the renamed MediaPortal directory. Data can either be moved or copied
    • Copy database subfolder to the respctive path C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\databases
    • Do the same for ..\thumbs
    • You can also move the ..\skin\Titanius back.
    • Depending on your plugins you can also copy the config file of WorldWeather (worldweather.xml) and any other plugin such as trakt or tvseries.
    Now launch MediaPortal and you should be OK. Any config glitches should be easy to adjust.

    Just did an update of my system from Win 7 / MP 1.25 to Win 10 / MP 1.31 on a single seat system and came across a problem with the tv server startup being erratic. Approx 50% of the time on PC reboot from scratch the tv server process was showing "starting" but would never start and consequently neither would MP or MP Server Config...

    that is absolutely not my impression, I think I reboot my htpc max a couple of times a year, usually (wild guess) when directx derails (symptoms are: frozen image, or sound only at video playback) Mind you, it's MP client only, no tvservice, and mp shutdown before sleep (and ofcourse start again at wake) Edit: leaving MP running...
