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.

    O Frabjous Joy! That seems to have done the trick. Thank you so much for your help and advice, CyberSimian. I hadn't thought of deleting the various folders, but I'll bear that in mind for any future disasters. Now I can record King & Conqueror on Sunday! Cheers Ralph
