What files do I need to save from the gbpvr directory if i'm copying all my recordings onto another drive, then swapping out the original and copying everything back over and keeping the same drive letter? I know that when i swap out the drive and come back up gbpvr's gonna forget about what recordings i had since they're not where it expects them to be.

Use the export recordings function in the config app, then import again once your new drive is up and running

Do as Elite said just to make sure.

I did it in the past too and set the autoremovemissingrecordings setting in config.xml to false before starting the process. GBPVR will not flush the database this way and keep not only the recordings themselves but also the playback positions and so on. Once the process is complete set autormovemissingrecordings back to true.

You will have to make sure the drive letter does not change.

If you did want to change the drive letter a simple find and replace on the file generated by export recordings should do the trick
