MediaPortal Back-Up? (1 Viewer)

[trichromes]

Hi,

New to the forums.

Is it possible to make a back-Up of the information stored for TV and Film details and the cover art?

The reason I ask is I'm currently using Windows 7 and I really don't want to have to go through the whole process of finding the art and info all over again when Win 7 retail is released.

Would it be possible to install MediaPortal onto a flash drive and store all the media info on that?

Thanks in advance.

Backup and restore the database and thumbnail directories and restore them after reinstalling everything on Windows 7.

Thanks for taking the time to reply Dr Tone.

I can't find the database, could you point me in the right direction please. I've looked in the Team MediaPortal folder in program files, but can't find the database.

Cheers

Excellent, I've got it now. thanks alot buddy

One more quick question. I'm going to be upgrading to 1.5TB drives soon, for MP to know where all my files are will I have to assign the same drive letters from this install of Win 7? If that makes sense.

Once again, thanks so much for all the help
