New EPG trying to find where it is stored

[shaneric1972]

Just updated to BeyondTV. Awesome as always. I have been manually downloading the epg (ss_pvs_db) and copying it over to my HTPC because I currently have no internet access hooked up to my HTPC. With the new 3.4 update, the ss_pvs_db is still there, but it is only 292k (after downloading EPG). It used to be around 12,000k. It seems that SS has changed the setup.

does anyone know what files I need to copy from to grab my EPG off of my other computer. I am not a beta tester so this is all new to me in 3.4. Thanks again

they moved all the data files from:
c:\documents and settings\all users\application data\snapstream\personal video station
to \snapstream\beyond tv

you are going to have to update to 3.4 on the machine you want to download with as the DB's are no longer compatible with one another. Another problem you might run into is that it has to re-download the lineup from ss.net and if the computer your using to download doesnt have a tuner in it the lineup may not work

what you should do is temporarily move the computer with 3.4 and the tuner to a place where it can get internet access then have it get downloaded and running, then install 3.4 to the machine you want to download with, then copy the entire snapstream\beyond tv data directory from the one with the tuner to the one that will be downloading (making sure beyondtv is not running on either when you do this) and then the download machine should be able to perform downloads without caring about stuff.

thanx robert

i wondered if that was it. I have been downloading on my laptop (no tuner card). I cant get into the fullscreen, but I just used it to download.

I will try what you said.

thanx again
