    I intend to upgrade from 1.2.3 to 1.30 tomorrow on a single-seat installation.

    Other than stopping instances of MP and the TV server through task manager and then running the 1.3.0.exe file, is that all that need to be done (generally speaking)?

    Crucially, is there any need to reconfigure my MP settings, or will they be kept intact (specifically the TV related stuff like, scheduled TV programs and all channel details?)

    I appreciate that extensions/plugins are another matter... (I use Streamed MP, Powerscheduler & Moving pictures FWIW)

    THE HTPC is used by the family, so I will not be in the 'good books' if is needs tons of re-configuring post-upgrade!

    Thanks

    Basic settings should be upgraded. Plugins might need upgrade, Skin might also need an upgrade (unless you are already on latest versions). I would still recommend doing a backup before upgrading (I use a disk image backup before every change).

    You will have to open Config tools and you might want to configure some things again (e.g. the genres in TV Server/genre colors in client).
