Is it possible to install an older version of mediaportal with leaving the current one intact?
For testing purpose.

I have tried but i only get a new folder which is empty.

    You can not run 2 copies of mp at the same time, but you can backup the following directories (copy or rename them):
    C:\ProgramFiles\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal and TvServer and
    C:\ProgramData\Team mediaPortal\MediaPortal and TvServer

    You might have a risc in destroying your TvDazabase, so pleas backup that one.

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
