How can I backup mediaportal and For the Record (FTR)? (1 Viewer)

[nzdreamer55]

Hello,

I have finished a basic install of mediaportal 1.1.1 and For the Record (FTR) 1.5.0.3 on windows 7 x64 and everything is working perfectly! I am using schedule direct as my source of my EPG date and Mediaportal TV server.

Because I am likely to break something as I add more stuff to it (skins, plugins, etc.) I want a way to back up all the hard work that I have done (hours of TV channel maping, reinstalling OS, downloading, etc.).

So far I have been using the windows system image program to copy an image of the system drive at various points of the install. This works but take a while to back up and it seems a little maybe overkill each time I add something.

Are there other methods of backing up Mediaportal and FTR?

Thanks
Steve

Ok. So I am a noob. I just found this link:

Sorry for posting without doing the least amount of research. Man, I need to just think before posting. Maybe someone can program something in to ask me after I hit the send button that says, have you looked in the wiki/forums first before submitting? Just hope someone else can learn from me being to lame to search.
Thanks for making a great thing that media portal is.

Steve
