[QUOTE="Manikm909, post: 1139493, member: 415764"] hey boys - i know this an old thread...but something should be cleared up (apologies if i have missed something) but this [B]WILL NOT WORK [/B]if Enigma2 is still "awake" when you do the pasting \ copying the new "settings" file over. this is what you have to do using TELNET or an APP such as VU+ control centre (by Lee Hudson) : Kill Engima (on new image \ box) by running: [B]INIT 4 (stops E2 allowing file editing / copying)[/B] now copy your [B]good [/B]settings into your new current blank settings file - or simply copy over your old settings file (if same box and compatible image) once this is done, restart your box by running: [B]INIT 6 (full reboot)[/B] Your tuner settings will now be there, failing to do it this way, you wont have your settings available. (i know i tried following above, then it dawned on me why it wasnt working) PS the same is true for TIMERS.XML (your timers if you want to copy them over) FYI some useful TELNET Commands for E2: [B]init 1 =stops E2 and network init 3 =wakes E2 from a sleeping state / GUI restart init 4 =kills E2 / puts enigma into sleep mode allowing you to edit or modify files init 6 =full E2reboot[/B] [/QUOTE]
