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.

    Yes, I saw that. Was beyond my understanding, however. Didn't see how to set that up. I'm a relative neophyte, who's done hardly any command-line coding. To be more specific: I don't see, under either "Grabbing Listings" or in the "First use example," where it is designated just where on one's C drive the tv.xml file is...

    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...

    If you’re planning to submit a pull request, let’s go through the list of issues and their solutions. I or someone from the team will create a Jira ticket, and for each ticket, you’ll make the changes and submit a pull request. This will be transparent and straightforward.
