Posts: 127 		I would like to see "Backwards compatibility maintained on Sets" so that a set created now will always be able to be loaded by a future version of Muvizu. Or at least a Set upgrade tool.

I realise this is something that the team may not be able to promise to do, but a desire to do this would be cool.

You'll be pleased to hear that we already support backward compatibility with old .set files. There's a huge amount of code in Muvizu that supports loading in 7 major file versions and 30 minor file versions. Every time you load a .set file it gets passed through a series of converters that upgrade it to the latest file format. The next time you save, it writes the file in the latest format. In fact, if you load a set and go to "About / System Info / Muvizu" and scroll down, you can see every version of the application that has saved that .set file.

Unfortunately things do very occasionally go wrong for whatever reason, usually with really old sets. If you're having problems loading an old set, feel free to send it to us at bugs@muvizu.com with an explanation and we'll do our best to salvage it for you.
