[RELEASE] Export Watched Data - Backup your watched status

Fox Wrote:Hi Mark.

There isn't that much to update, the most common problem seems to be the database name that will change if you install a clean new version of xbmc, so check that you are using the right one. Both for when you export and import.
I looked at a way to get this information from xbmc directly but had no luck so atm you have to change that manually. :-(

What I tried, was exporting from the 10.1 XBMC using the "unmodified" export - which did create the *.XML file and looked to have worked.

I then made the modifications to the script on the new XBMC box to use the new DB name and changed the ET statements to ElementTree. When I try to run the import, it doesn't work.

In my opinion, the watched list is more important than any of the other import/export that is built into XBMC. I can always re-scan everything. I only care about the watched list and have been fighting with trying to figure a way to move that data over.

I'll double check things again so see if I can find out the exact error or issue that is happening. Not that it should matter, but I'm also going to XBMC Live 9.11 and 10.1 to XBMC on Windows (pre-Eden).

Thanks.

- Mark
