MP2 - V2.4 Has anyone encountered issues upgrading from 2.3 to 2.4.1? (1 Viewer)

[Eddy White]

I see the instructions say just uninstall 2.3 and install 2.4.1.
My concern is losing all my configuration settings.
I cannot find anything that says what needs to be done to ensure there is no loss of configuration without a lot of work.
Thanks.

Only MP2.4 is released since a few days, there is no MP2.4.1 available yet, but development just started.
With regard to MP2.4 there is no risk in updating, the database structure is the same. You can backup your settings by copying

1. "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\" elsewhere (Full backup, incl. Database)
2. "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Client\Config\" and "...\MP2-Server\Config\" elwhere (Only settings backup)

In case you would have issues with MP2.4, you just need to uninstall it, restore the backup settings and re-install MP2.3.

Sorry, I was reading about 2.4.1 and thought about it when typing this inquiry
Much appreciate the info, I will get this going in the next few weeks and share my experience.
Thanks!
