Title: Tranfser setting from 18 to 19
Post by: red90 on December 17, 2013, 10:15:10 pm

I've installed 19 and the Media Server settings from 18 are not there.  Did I miss something?  How do I get the settings back.  I have a complicated custom media server that I have no desire to figure out again.

Okay.  I uninstalled 19.  Backed up 18.  Installed 19 and restored the backup.

All is fine now.  No idea why it did not happen automatically.

You don't need to uninstall/reinstall to restore the backup.  This can be done at any time via File > Library > Restore Library.

I think it migrates the Library itself, but not the settings automatically.  This probably keeps people from migrating troublesome setups, or something.  I don't know.  But you can restore a backup and it works.

I tried a restore first without uninstalling and MC19 froze.
