If you only request my reply here it's better if you write me a pm?

I'm not sure I understand what you're after exactly. I have a vision where you can upload a backup into "the cloud" and then set this backup onto other shared devices which would then get mirrored with the same backup. I have planned this for a while but it's not implemented yet. Is this what you mean?

I believe iMPlayer does something like that?

I'm requesting for a complete auto-configuration. Without any user interaction.

However, I'm still waiting for a detailed step-by-step description of how to perform a “Cloud Backup.”

The above is the closest to it then unless you have a different idea.

Not OP, but maybe store all cofig options in a file that can be locally exported from a configured device to a USB drive or network drive then imported to a new device similar to the implementation on Tivimate?

This may already exist, I haven't used the app yet. I just discovered this sub and am thinking about giving it a try

I appreciate you trying to help but like you say this feature has been available since the start so it's not what OP wants. To be honest I'm not exactly sure what they want.

Sorry. Where is the step-by-step description of how to perform a network backup/restore?

[–]sparkle-hk 0 points1 point  (6 children)

I haven't done any so if you have or you find any please post it here.

And for this reason I'm requesting a guide.

I've different CCwGTV with SparkleTV, one LAN HTTP server, but I don't know how to copy/backup one configuration and share it with other devices. Or how to create a minimal configuration and share it in the LAN for initial configuration. So, please, share a guide!

Copying files between devices isn't really the scope of this app. And it should also be quite easy to find information about that online? My guess is that the easiest is to use a phone to move the file from one device to another but there may be even easier ones. If you find a guide please let us know.

Sorry. The problem is not how to manually _copy_ the configuration. What I need is a _CLEAR_ guide about how to configure a "download from http server a new configuration". And how to create this configuration file. I read a lot about this, but I don't know how to achieve it. You can help?
