[WiP] 5154: MediaPortal 1 - x64 - SharpDX (8 Viewers)

How about BackupSettings v1.3.0.27

It seems to work I got a "export successful" pop up after export completed.
There was an error?
See attached pic.

How about BackupSettings v1.3.0.27

I can only test for MediaPortal as I no longer have TV server installed.
I will do a total uninstall then reinstall of MediaPortal to see if it works and report back.

I honestly don't know how it works and what should happen. I just compiled it with 1.37 x86/x64 support

It works fine for the plugins (Moving pics, tv series and weather,) but it didn't backup MediaPortal settings as in skin, music and videos (movies and music are there and play but in configuration only the folders that that come with MP install are there) and that is NOT where my movies and music are stored so import of new movies and music will not be possible without changing folders in configuration.

It looks like the Db's got overwritten so it points to the folders where the movies and music are but MP configuration was not updated.
Maybe the error in the pic in my previous post?

@ajs
Its been a long time since i have used Backupsettings so I'm not sure that it has updated MP configuration in x86.
Having it back up the plugins, fan art and MediaPortal Extension Manager works for me and I know I would need to change the folders and views in MP configuration, that isn't a big deal to me.
It works as it is for me and I thank you for giving us this plugin back for x64.

I can publish it in its current form, maybe someone will correct it (if there is incorrect work) or improve it.
Or I can not publish it.
If I had used it at least once, I would probably know how it should work. But this is the first time I see it, and I launched it.

It should work as it has been working in x86 so I think publish it in its current form unless someone with TV server is willing to test.

It would be good if someone with TV server would use it and do a clean install then import to make sure it works for TV server.

When testing use expert mode and go to the "extra folders" tab to select IRSS folders.

If you copy TV server and MediaPortal folders from "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal" you can copy them back and overwrite the new install if it doesn't work and get back to present settings.

Edit change "other folders" to "extra folders"

Same goes for IRSS.

I installed the latest version. No errors. It doesn't seem to backup tvserver at all on mine. I'm not sure if it should as I only started using tvserver recently.
I'll do a test install on a laptop to see what should backup.

Scratch that. All perfect. Hadn't enabled the plugin in TVServer correctly.
Backup running fine. Thank you very much for your work.

I was mistaken about the plugin not backing up the skin, it did backup the skin I had forgotten I was using the oldeyes skin on the machine i tested on.
All i had to do was select the oldeyes skin in MP configuration and it was back to the setup I had before the backup.

So all I had to do after restoring the backup was to reset the folders and views for videos and music in MP configuration.

It would be good if this were also available in the Extension Manager.
