Backing UP to move to a new CPU
If I am going to movie my Ceton 6 PCI-E to a new (Custom Built) Computer,
Where do I find the list of TV shows & channels to move to the new machine?
Anything else I should watch out for?

Your old copy-protected recordings won't play on the new computer.

You are more than likely looking at doing a clean setup,including repairing the tuners with your TV provider.

I don't really understand the question. Are you talking about transferring the guide data and scheduled recordings to the new machine?RDI wrote:Where do I find the list of TV shows & channels to move to the new machine?
The CableCARD is paired with the tuner, not the PC.leroys1000 wrote:You are more than likely looking at doing a clean setup,including repairing the tuners with your TV provider.

This is handy info:

Recording history is a big one, and will prevent your new HTPC recording all of the shows you have already been recorded that are in your recordings list.

I have used WMC Backup with great results:

However it doesn't back up recording history. Anyone know how to do that? STC's link above discusses it but I didn't see a solution.

Oh, OK. I assumed that was just the manual method for recording schedule back-up. Didn't realize that did recording history too, thanks!
