One possible route to fixing your hostname problem would be to install<br>
mythexport/mythimport and export all the new recordings. You could<br>
then restore from the old backup and change the hostname, then use<br>
mythimport to restore the new recordings. <br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I will add that to the list of options I need to consider. My problem is that I have also made other changes to the database since the upgrade, because I dropped cable service and went back to OTA only with Sling, then decided there were serious limitations to Sling's DVR; primarily, I can't watch a recording until it is completed, and Hulu shares the same issue so it's not just one streaming service. This one is a show stopper for me because one of my main uses of the DVR is to time-shift games so that I can start watching an hour late and be able to skip or FF commercials. So now I'm back with Comcast (mysteriously I am now getting a much better price :-) So I have deleted and added channels and capture cards, as well as making a few other tweaks (like upping the channel recpriority on some HD channels that have SD equivalents). Redoing all this is a pretty big task too, so "restoring from an old backup" is not quite that simple in my case.</div><div><br></div><div>--Greg</div><div><br></div></div></div>
