export/import setup/settings

Added by Stephen Foged about 1 year ago

Is there a feature to import and export settings from one TVHeadend to another?

I have a Synology NAS running a nice setup (native app???) (channels sorted and scanned). And I want to migrate it to an Unraid server with TVHeadend running in Docker.

This is probably not a task for a normal user. However, if you have some IT skills, read on.

All of the settings are stores as JSON files within the TVH directory hierarchy. Backing up and restoring these files will get you most of the way with one exception.

If you are using different tuner hardware, then the adapter names will probably change. Once you have the adapters installed in your new system, you can find their JSON files and edit the “networks” so that they point to the UUIDs of your old settings.
