| − | == Converting Old Libraries ==
| |
| − | You may chose to start fresh and let Media Center import your files. Performance may seem a little slow until this is completed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Media Center can also read and convert some older MC libraries. This is automatic for MC15 or newer versions. For older libraries, make a backup from the old version and restore it in Media Center. Backup and restore are under File/Library. MC makes automatic backups.
| |
| − | | |
| − | MC18 can also copy your settings from MC17 or MC16. This is automatic when MC18 first starts and can also be done when you restore an MC16 or MC17 library (under File/Library).
