[QUOTE="Paranoid Delusion, post: 290840, member: 13176"] pbb The installer creates a new database according to Release Candidate number ie MpTvDbRC2, the old MpTvDbRC1 db should still be there though (still got original TVLibrary). The clean install has been required because of possible alterations to tables accessed within db, which could give problems leading to false bug reports. If there are no database changes, then you should be allowed to keep previous setting, or migrate the database over, only the devs can decide on this, and i think they err on the side of caution. The channel import is not good, especially for people with multiple cards, so anything that makes "upgrading" to a new version straight forward, has to be appreciated, so maybe this needs to be looked at more closely. I really can appreciate the need for a new database being created, as this does help find newly introduced bugs on the tuning\sorting side. Sorry if above sounds a bit contradictory, but there are definately 2 types of users, one who just want MP to work, and those who are constructive in its development and do not mind the clean install approach. What you put into wiki from above is upto you :) :thx: [/QUOTE]
