If you've created restore points with an older version of the addon (pre 0.3.6) you may see this issue. New versions of the addon look for a file called xbmcbackup.val to validate that a folder is a valid restore archive. Your older restore folders may not have this file. All you need to do is create a blank text file and rename it to xbmcbackup.val. Then put this file inside the archive directory. Your restore points should show up after selecting "Restore" in the addon again.
Hi
Ive done this but still it wont see the backup to restore. Anything else I can try?
To give some more info on my problem. I backed up everything to an other PC on the LAN using the xbmcbackup add on with xbmcububtu. I've now installed xbmc on windows (13 Gotham) and installed the xbmcbackup add-on. Connecting to the LAN PC is not a problem and it finds the directory where the backup is stored but shows the directory as empty!! xbmxbackup.val is in the folder .
What else can I try? . I dont want to have to completely rebuild the whole install from scratch.
