[QUOTE="mikester, post: 283290, member: 19826"] I would take a look at this document in the Wiki: [url=http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/UserGuides/CentralisedDatabases]UserGuides/CentralisedDatabases - MediaPortal Wiki Documentation[/url] It describes how to setup a centralized database so multiple clients will have the same configuration. The files you would want to copy to a server for multiple clients are the same files you will want to copy to your new machine. ;) One note on the article - I wasn't able to find the database and thumbnail directories under the MP directory as they described. I even looked under the "Local Settings" directory for my profile and it wasn't there. It ends up that MP is writing these files under the "All Users" profile, under "Local Settings" or "Application Data" (can't remember offhand). This is with WinXP SP3 - might be different for Vista. Just thought I would point it out because it caused me a lot of frustration one night when trying to set this up. [/QUOTE]
