[quote=105808]That’s good news!
We are keeping our fingers crossed for the next versions..
Another question that came to my mind: Is there any way to only update the retropie image – when a new update of yours is going to be released?
I have setup my openelec build as i want – and it was a pain in the ass (as i had to manually add some favorites etc). So i dont want to re-install both images from the beggining.I am using the usb installation method though..

Yes I realise it is not feasible to do a full install *every* time, however I look upon 7.2 as the first build to not contain bugs, hence why I am holding back on releasing it until its all tested, as I don’t expect to be releasing a new build for a while in the future (until the next milestone is reached in RetroPie for example). That being said – there is a backup option inside OpenELEC which will save your current setup as-is to a tar file. You can then copy this tar file over into a fresh build of OpenELEC and it should theoretically become an exact copy, addons favourites everything.
You can do it by copying the actual files off the SD card as well, if you have linux, but I would recommend going down the backup route instead.
