Migrate from 18.9 to 20.1 - bd.azerty.p - 2023-06-27

Hi everybody,

I have a Kodi v18.9 I've been using for a long time. I have some customization : 
- Aeon Nox : Silvo with custom menu and sub-menus (and backgrounds for each of them)
- Custom playlists
- Improve sorts of lists with renaming some movies
- Some extensions (subtitles, manual installation of Youtube, Twitch)
...

I'll have to do a full reinstall of the PC, and I'll install last version of Kodi. Because I don't want to do all this setup again, I wanted to know what I could do to keep the maximum of customisation I did

Thanks

If you're updating the o/s & Kodi at the same time with a full re-install, I would recommend you consider a full re-installation. {Aeon Nox : Silvo, and Kodi have changed considerably}

install Kodi stable in Portable mode (wiki) grab 'Aeon Nox : Silvo' and set that up, ensure proper functionality (this shouldn't take long at all), you could copy the sources.xml and advancedsettings.xml from the Userdata (wiki) folder along with playlists and some of your customization's. A fresh scrape, along with the re-creation of your library will have Kodi in spiffy order and bring in those changes you want.
