[QUOTE="wjw, post: 410893, member: 79284"] To export all current settings use TVServer Configuration. Click on "TV channels" and you will see a list of all current channels and at the bottom of this page, one of the many buttons is "export". This will save all current channel data and future scheduled recordings to a location of your choice. The best thing to do with any recorded programmes is to go to the c:/program data/Team MediaPortal/TVServer folder. One of the folders in there is "recordings". Just drag this out onto your desktop - or anywhere else you like. Do the new install. Go back to TVServer Configuration (under 1.0.1 you need to right click and run as administrator), TV Channels and use the "import button" This reloads channel data and schedules. You now need to re-map the channels to your card. This is done by expanding the TV Channels entry and choosing "mapping". Select the card you use and all the channel data you imported will be shown in the left hand panel. Select the ones you want and move them to the right hand panel. You're now back where you were. For the recordings, first delete the new "Recordings" folder that was created in c:/program data/Team MediaPortal/TVServer folder by the new install - then drag the one you removed earlier back to this location. Restart TVServer Configuration, click on "Recording Settings" and the last tab will be "database import". All the prgrammes you re-inserted into the "recordings" folder will be listed here, just click the "import selected" and your recordings database will be rebuilt. I've been doing this a lot lately and I know it all works! Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
