Hi,

after a crash while configuring my categories, they are a mess. Is there a way I can totally reset them to initial values?

Thanks a lot

Maxx

    Sure can, simply remove each one and close/re-open. This will restore the defaults.

    Hi Damien, thanks for your answer, I'll give it a try.
    Still, I'm not 100% sure it's gonna solve my problem as I have the following behaviour after the crash I described:
    -categories under MP and configuration aren't the same
    -some come twice (for example, under my custom "genre menu", I know have 2 documentaries categories)
    -most of them aren't at the right place (Sean Connery under genre, for example)

    And sometimes some categories just won't be removed. I think that crash f..ed up stg and that's why I was thinking about a real reset. But I'll give your solution a try :)

    Thanks for the update on this. I should have searched before posting, always assume it is something I have done wrong.

    Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database". Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...

    It seems if you uninstall just the tvserver and client it wipes all the settings and clears the database.
