[QUOTE="coopers, post: 327446, member: 16116"] Hi folks, So, I am updating to RC3, install, everything is fine. I have backed up all the database and thumbs files I found in the "User Data" folder, my intention is that I want to restore my music playlists, video watched flags, mytvseries flags, etc. I'm trying to find information to read about this, but I'm at a loss. I'm under the impression that I *should* just be able to copy the backed up database and thumbs files back into the right directories after the install of RC3, and then this should just work. Questions: - Is that correct? Is that the right thing to do? Will it cause problems? - How does that work? Are the database formats automatically updated by Mediaportal or have the database formats not changed at all between releases? - Is this all that needs to be done? I mean, are all settings backed up in these databases, or do I still need to set things up in the configuration dialog? thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
