Library export from Xbian/XBMC 1.0RC2 to Latest Xbian Kodi
Hi,
I've had a Pi B running Xbian/XBMC 1.0RC2 for years. Undisturbed and not updated (I had a bad experience updating once, and it was doing what I needed it to do so it was left alone). I've decided to replace it with a Pi 3 B+ running an up to date xbian/Kodi build and need a few pointers on my options for bringing my media library across. I've got a lot of tv shows and films on an external usb with details scraped from the tvdb and movie db using the add-in's on the old XBMC pi and it's primarily that data that I want to get across as the tvdb has a habit of changing episode numbers around and I don't want to re-scrape them all. I've tried a "backup /home" from xbian-config on the xbmc pi, with a restore of the .gz on the new Kodi pi, but the service is left un-startable. Not a surprise given the years between them. I'm also vaguely aware I can do an export of the library from xbmc that will create thumbnails and xml details alongside the episodes on the external media, then presumably I could import that on the new pi. Is there any other options I'm missing for moving the library info across? Any tips or tricks would be gratefully received. Thanks, Hal. |

That's what I would try. Exporting existing library database on your old installation and reimporting it on your new one Maybe it works, but there is still a chance to fail due to so many XBMC/Kodi versions between. Another possibility could be saving XBMC's profile probably /home/xbian/.xbmc and restore it on new system as /home/xbian/.kodi and see what happens. But I would assume that Kodi can't convert database because database is too old. |
