Saving settings

by merlinicorpus » Fri Jan 22, 2016 7:06 pm

Is there a way to save the settings from an install of Sighthound and move them? I need to reformat and install a new copy of Windows but I would like keep my previously recorded videos intact (they're saved on a separate drive). Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

There currently isn't an officially supported migration method but you should be able to copy a few items from the data folder to the new computer to preserve your configurations and rules. Namely you'll want the "camdb" file and the "rules" directory. This article will help you locate the Sighthound Video data directory: https://www.sighthound.com/support/wher ... store-data

If you need help transferring your license please see this article: https://www.sighthound.com/support/can- ... r-computer
