Just wondering if someone can clarify the backup addon for me.
Are there difference in the backups from Frodo and Eden?...are they interchangeable or a least upgradable from Eden to Frodo?
Are backups created on one platform ok to use on another. Mac to PC to Crystalbuntu to Raspbmc, etc, etc.
Here is why I ask...
My setups...
I currently have running Eden: ATV2, (2x) ATV1, MacBook, 2 PCs
I currently have running Frodo: (2x) Raspberry Pi, Pivos, Macbook.
What works:
I backup up the ATV2 running Eden and restored to Pivos running Frodo...works.
I restored to ATV 1 (Cystalbuntu) using one either the ATV2 (Eden) or Pivos (Frodo) backup...not sure which one I actually used and its works.
Whats failing:
Tried restore my second ATV1 with backups from all 3 working system...all failed.
Reloaded the ATV fresh...all 3 attempts to restore still failed.
It takes no time to restore, doesn't appear to do it, and no errors.
What should I look out for..
...and more importantly, what works with what?
