I assume that 99.12 is later than 99.5, but it's confusing - you probably should have used 2 digit versions before, i.e. 99.05 - then it would be obvious.

Will I lose the Reoccurring Recordings I currently have setup when I upgrade?

lol - you and you dvb radio.

I've already had access to DVB, including DVB radio for quite a while, but its only ever had teletext subtitles. I'll now be getting DVB subtitles too, which is something I didnt get in the past.

12 is higher than 5 in my book. I didnt call it 99.1.2.

Its same number scheme I've used in the every past release. We had v0.98.8 followed by v0.98.13. We had v0.97.7 followed by v0.97.13. We had v0.96.8 followed by v0.96.12 etc...

It should retain them during an upgrade.

I have a whole lot of Reoccurring Recordings setup that I don't want to lose at the moment. So, I want to be clear that when upgrading I won't lose them. Is that understanding correct?

If they will be lost, then I'll wait on the upgrade for a while.

Sorry to beat a dead hourse, but I'm having a mental block.

It will normally retain any recordings during upgrade. I recommend people backup their gbpvr.db3 in case of problems, but usually you wouldnt need this.

(sorry distracted today)

Since this is an upgrade issue, I think this is the correct place to post. In the future, would it be possible for the upgrade to backup the user's bda.ini file? Once again I upgraded and forgot about this dumb file, and it wasn't until I realized my two recordings were showing in-progress but doing no more than taunting me and my stupidity that I realized it.

Maybe it's too uncommon an issue to deal with (certainly the HDHomeRun's requirements for this file are peculiar ), but I know occasionally others add items to their BDA.INI too and may not have yet shared the settings for you to add standardly.

Thankfully we both know I have a copy posted on the net somewhere. Smile

I'm such a duffous.
