[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1271828, member: 109222"] Hi. It was until MP 2.1 Due to many changes done to the db ist was nearly impossible to modify the database from outside any longer since MP 2.2. Then the flag mover plugin came out and I started to adopt MP2-Buddy to use Flag Mover json files. instead of modifying MP2 database directly. But this happens shortly before I changed over to Kodi as client software (due to changed hardware not able to run Windows), so I lost motivation and even data to work with. The version I have locally available can do some conversions between the different data sets to flag mover json but I can't test if anything still is working. If someone is interested to maintain the program any further, it is open source and I'll be glad to attach the recent source code here... There is a flag mover version for MP 2.1.3 so you can install 2.1.3 (I still use 2.1.3 as TV Backend for Kodi), import your media and after that the watched flags from MP1 into MP 2.1.3 (with the help of MP2-Buddy), export the flags with flag mover plugin and install MP 2.2.x.
