As part of the latest update the apollo plugin will now backup your skinsettings each time you exit mediaportal. The migration script has also been rewritten in c# now so as to avoid tripping malware detection falsely. While doing this i found a duplication error in skin settings which has now been fixed.
This is basically to let you know for this next update if you want your settings to migrate across you will need to do the following in
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\skin\Apollo\SkinSettings.xml
Find these two entries and remove them
<entry name="#skin.movie.swap,'True'">False</entry>
<entry name="#skin.movie.swap,'False'">False</entry>
Then replace with this one if not already there
<entry name="#skin.movie.swap">False</entry>
Once you have done that copy the skinsettings.xml to
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal
and rename it to ApolloSettingsBak.xml
This should then enable the migration code to complete correctly, this is a one time thing and backup/migration between releases should be automatic going forward.
