Help Restoring Data - comfox1 - 2014-12-05

I just did a fresh in stall of Kodi from Gotham but I want to restore my movie and tv show "viewing history" from my old XBMC install. What files do I need to copy over from the old install to the new install?

Thanks!

do you still have the gotham version installed? the best way would be (from gotham) go into settings -> videos -> export video library -> separate files.... and then in helix just add your sources... everything should be intact.. If you dont have the gotham version installed, the helix installation would have asked you if you wanted to transfer over your profile..

I do still have the Gotham version backed up...not really installed. I was hoping I could just copy over files from the back up.

If I need to install Gotham and do the export I can do that. How do I install the separate files in to helix?
