[QUOTE="Paranoid Delusion, post: 190164, member: 13176"] Being able to PULL in old TV recordings from previous installs, has been requested from as far back as i can remember, whether dvr-ms files or newer mpeg\ts. Alway's the advice literally is change to mpeg\divx\xvid and either put it in folder Movies if a film and use imdb to get info, or if a general entertainment tv episodes use the TVseries plugin to get info. Whichever way you do it, it means human action to get the information back for these files and not restore the old deleted database info. Maybe a full database backup option in config would be nice as well (know there are individual backups, but if you missed one you would be pissed off), and how many times has anyone seen "unable to access database, need to create new" or something to that effect on a svn update. I do not think anyone could easily automate this, otherwise it would have been done a long time ago. [/QUOTE]
