Can i do "Create System and Kodi Backup" with a SSH Command?

  • Hey, my box is only a tvh server and sits there fixed installed behind a closet without any keyboard/mouse/display.

    For me hard to reach it. :)

    Now i want to backup all.

    Can i do "Create System and Kodi Backup" via ssh?

  • There's no shortcut/script for it, but the backup process we use in the LE settings add-on is just a 'tar' command. If the box is only hosting Tvheadend you only need to stop Kodi and then tar the contents of /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data and any other dirs that you've used in your TVH configuration as the rest of the OS and Kodi should be using default settings.

    NB: If you are thinking to update to LE 12.2 (or LE13 nightlies) Tvheadend 4.2 is no longer supported and only Tvheadend 4.3 exists in the 12.2/13.0 addon repo you are updating to.
