Hello

I've been trying to restore my database from a backup file, however whenever I do, it gets part way through and then brings up this error:

"Restore Aborted
The following error occured during the restore:
Stream read error"

Is there a way round, or am I doing something incorrectly?

Kind regards

What version of DVDProfiler are you using?
Is the backup file from the same version?
How many DVDs do you try to restore?
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

The backup is.. Disk?  Hardrive?  or memory stick?..  Also try to restore by turning off some features such as cast/ headshots.. or some other area.. as shown here circled..  It's worth a try as you may one of these areas corrupted.. and by closing off certain areas you may be able to pinpoint the problem.

Hi guys

I'm using 3.5.1 and as far as I know the backup was from the same version. Unfortunately the computer that created the database originally is broken so I cant check to see what version it had, however I'm pretty sure it was up to date. The collection is around 1500 profiles and is being restored from a file on the hard drive.

I've tried disabling all of the tick boxes bar "restore profiles" and the same error occurs. I've also tried restoring only a single profile from the list and the same error occurs.

It's not listed in the list of disabled features, but can you restore a 1500 DVD collection with the unregistered version?

I do get a message before restore stating "Features Will be limited" and stating that I have more than 50 DVDs yet am not registered and offering me the option of registering. No matter if I press, Yes, No or Cancel, I still get the error.

When I changed to 3.x from my old freeware account I couldn't restore my backup (far less than 1.500). I don't recall the error message exactly, but it was something about "collection size". All was fine after buying the premium license.
So probably Unicus has a point here.

If it's having an effect like that - would it help if Puhkipsy tried restoring only a few profiles at a time, or does the error occur regardless of how many profiles are being restored?

I very much doubt that a feature limitation would result in a generic error message such as "stream read error". A while ago, user Mithi had researched a backup/restore problem resulting in a "data error" message during restore. Maybe that's related to this case. Details see here.
