Transferring get_iPlayer

user-617

My old PC is on it's last legs. get_iPlayer installed from source on the new one.

Is there a file containing my PVR list I can copy over, or is it a matter of adding everything manually on the new machine?

Yes.

Depending on your system the exact path will be different but within your 'Home' or 'User' folder there should be a 'hidden'
Code:
.get_iplayer
directory and within that there are various things. One of those is the PVR data. Another is the history file of downloaded programmes.

Both might be useful to transfer across. I haven't done this for a long time and I'm not in front of my main system at the mo so I can't be more specific but if you have a look in that general area you should find what you are after.
