I decided that I want to update one of my two MP test installations. Which is the correct procedure?
I want to keep the databases.

    Same question... It's said that best way to install RC3 is to first uninstall RC2... is there any way to export settings & database and import them back once RC3 is installed? May be copying .xml files from RC2 installation (I did so from RC1 to RC2)...

    Thanks.

    I'll give it a try!

    Thanks!

    PD: Strange to have an entire Mediaportal backup plugin in TV-Server window... ¿?

    Well... after some problems with card ids in RC2 and RC3, and some "directory not found" errors for recording and timeshifting folders, it did the trick.

    Thank you.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.

    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...

    Actually, you just reminded me of how I have handled this in the past: I merged the contents of an old export.xml with a new one to make a complete file containing the old values I needed and the new values I didn't want to change. Why should it matter if the export file is missing some values? I would expect the import process to...
