[mythtv-users] Moving mythbackend, how to copy important tables?

[TJ Harris]

I am moving my mythbackend over to new hardware, in part because my
old backend had some unexplained flakiness.   So, I don't want to copy
the entire DB over and potentially bring the flakiness along.   But, I
would like to keep a few things, such as the record of the programs I
have previously recorded/viewed so that they are not recorded again.
Maybe my recording schedule too, but that would not be too hard to
re-create.

Anyone have guidance on which tables to copy in this scenario, or any
gotchas to watch out for?    Or, am I better off not trying to do
partial copies?
