I recently moved my backend to new hardware. But I didn't move any recordings. I just moved the list of previously recorded shows. I recommend you have a marathon session and watch any recording that you can't replace. then deleate all the recordings. That will make the switch to new hardware a lot easier.

I have a box A with MythTV 0.20 and mysql 4.1.20, a MythTV<br>database and the recordings associated with that database. I would<br>like to copy both the database and recordings to a new, bigger box B,<br>also with MythTV
0.20 and mysql 5.0.24a. The location of recordings in<br>box B will not be the same as it was in box A.<br><br> Is there a foolproof way of doing this? The reason I am asking is<br>because a look in the archives allows one to dig up several threads
<br>where similar problems are addressed, and the solutions given seem to<br>be incomplete, or untested (the "this should work" kind), or<br>applicable to different versions of MythTV and/or mysql than those<br>
originally inquired about. I am particularly scared about mysql, for I<br>know nothing much about databases, and differences between mysql<br>versions seem to be only too apt to screw things up quickly.<br><br> If anybody out there has tackled this successfully, it would be
<br>most useful if they could post the steps followed in detail.<br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">mythtv-users@mythtv.org</a><br><a href="http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users">
