It would be extremely helpful if there was a way to export (and later re-import) the Media Server tuner and DVR configurations.
Here’s why:
-
I currently have things set up for OTA recording of local programming, so I’ve scanned channels and selected the ones of interest. In the DVR I’ve configured ongoing recording of a number of programs.
-
I want to test whether or not my cable provider (Comcast/Xfinity Portland, OR) is sending local channels unencrypted (Clear-QAM). This will involve changing the input feed and reconfiguring the input device, which will lose all the setup I’ve already done. I’d rather not lose that if possible.
I haven’t found a way to export the tuner/DVR configuration from within the Plex Desktop app.
Also I’ve looked in %LOCALAPPDATA%\{plex|Plex Media Server} but don’t see anything that looks like tuner or DVR configuration data; ditto for the registry.
So, is it possible in some way to move aside the current tuner/DVR configuration, try the ClearQAM test, and then restore the current setup in the case where ClearQAM isn’t provided?
