Title: Import Smartlists from MC 12 to MC 13
Post by: Bendra on November 23, 2008, 07:07:47 pm

I have a bunch of them.  I want MC 13 to import eerything I had in MC12.  Is there a simple way to do this?

I don't know a fast way of doing it but have you tried the "Import/Export" option in the "Edit Smartlist" window?

I have, but I could not locate the smartlists in MC 12.  Perhaps that's all that I need.

Not sure if I'm following you. Are you saying that you can't find the saved exported smartlist? If this is the case it is saved where ever you want it to. I suggest you save it either in the desktop or My Documents folder. And remember the exported smartlist is saved as a simple text file.

Or are you saying you can't find the smartlist you've created?

I am saying that I haven't located the smartlists in JRiver's MC12 file folder.  I didn't willfully specify a library location but that doesn't mean that I didn't check a box in the setups section while not knowing what I was doing.

I suppose I could do a search by smartlist name.  Be kind to a little old lady on Medicare, here, sonny boy. ;D

You can restore a full Media Center 12 library backup into Media Center 13.
