cinemas.xml to sqlite3

Post by Guddu »

The version Version 2.18.0 of DCP-o-matic brought about a change wherein the cinemas database is stored in a sqllite3 database instead of the regular cinemas.xml file.

Is there a proper way of loading an existing cinemas.xml to the sqlite3 database?

It should be done automatically the first time you load a 2.18.x version of DCP-o-matic - did that not work for you?

Dear Carl,

You mean upon installation of the 2.18.X version, it will automatically try to find a cinemas.xml and if found will load it's contents to the sqlite3 DB?
