about to migrate my mythtv backend from a machine running
2:0.27.6+fixes.20160417.aba485<wbr>8-0ubuntu0mythbuntu4 on
Ubuntu 12.04 to a different machine on Ubuntu 16.04. On
the new machine,<br>
<br>
$ apt-cache policy mythtv<br>
mythtv:<br>
Installed: (none)<br>
Candidate: 2:0.28.0+fixes.20160413.15cf42<wbr>1-0ubuntu2.16.04.1<br>
<br>
I will only need the backend to be able to see the
schedule information, more or less the way I can see it
with MythWeb on the old machine. I currently have no TV
hardware to connect. The schedule layout in MythWeb is far
superior to the way Comcast's Xfinity layout looks.<br>
<br>
So the question is, if I backup the database from version
27, will I be able to restore it in version 28? If not, am
I better off downgrading to version 27, or would it be
better to go through the setup of 28 to set up the
database with the Comcast channel line up?<br>
<br>

<div>Yes you can restore your 0.27 database backup into 0.28
(0.27 is not supported on 16.04) the database will be
upgraded from 0.27 to 0.28 when the backend comes online.<br>
