You don't *have* to deal with the "correct" path to the backup xml file yourself. Just use the *browse* button on the right to *select the RL backup file* and LMS will fill in the path to your backup file. The actual location of the backup file is irrelevant to the restore process. RL/LMS only needs the information from that file, no matter where it's located.

Yes, that's what I was referring to with -file paths-. It's a simple replace keeping in mind that the file paths are escaped. Just to confirm, you are moving your LMS from a Synology to a Pi (piCorePlayer), right? So let's say the -parent- folder of your music is a folder called "-music-" in both cases. On the *Synology* its path was "*OLDPATH%2Fmusic*" (in escaped form a slash */* becomes "*%2F*" - without the double quotes). Now you need to know the *path to "music" on your new Pi LMS*. Pick a random track in LMS and you should find the complete path in its -song information-. Take note of the path up to where it's identical, i.e. the -music- folder in your case. Then just use a plain text editor to replace "OLDPATH%2Fmusic" with "NEWPATH%2Fmusic". Save and restore. Should work if the paths are correct. *Plugin repositories:* 'Ratings Light' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-ratingslight) 'Visual Statistics' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-visualstatistics) 'Use Comment Tag Info' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-usecommenttaginfo) 'Dynamic Playlists 3 FAQ' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-dynamicplaylists#faq) 'Custom Skip 3 FAQ' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-customskip#faq) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ AF1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39306 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113344
