BTV Settings Path

[bradpvr]

Hey,

I have some XML files I need to save but can't seem to figure out where the BTV settings files are stored?

What's the method or property I'd use to get this?

Mutli-user in the WebUI is almost done!

Thanks!
Brad

Try here:

\documents and settings\all users\application data\snapstream\beyond tv\

Hey,

I know *what* it is, but I want to know how to programatically figure that out, or should I just *shudder* hardcode it?

Thanks!
Brad

I Think I get what you mean.... you want to make sure that no matter how it's installed -- by OS -- the file location can get polled -- and used...? as it can differ with the OS and whatnot... correct?

Bingo.

I was thinking BTVSettingsPropertyNames would have it, but it only has the BufferPath.

If there's no such field, then I'll just save it in the Buffer Path I guess.

Thanks!

Basically, you should query out the common application data directory from the system and append the rest of our directory structure to it. That should always be the correct directory.
