I had an old install of NextPVR, which, for various reasons, I had to uninstall before installing the latest version. Under my previous version, I had dozens of recordings of several different TV shows, none of which show up as recordings in the new install. I tried uploading the .ts files using the "import recordings" button on the web interface, but nothing happened. I also tried doing an export of the current recordings, and editing the .xml files to match one of the old recordings (as a test), and it failed to upload anything (I assume I didn't edit things correctly).

Across the forum and the wiki, I have found a few references to using VidImport to bulk add files to the recordings, but I can't figure out how to get it to work. Trying the various commands on the wiki just produces a bunch of errors/exceptions and does nothing. I assume I'm getting the syntax wrong but there are not examples on the wiki for me to be sure.

Any advice on how to add my old recordings back to NextPVR would be greatly appreciated.

Are there any XML files in the NextPVR data folder that were created by the previous install? ... https://github.com/sub3/NextPVR/wiki/components

Hah! That did it. I had assumed that the old files got removed when I uninstalled, but they didn't.

Thank you so much.
