Thanks, all. I don't necessarily have need for CC (the only time I ever have a caption on the screen is "forced" captions in BD rip movies). I don't use placeshifter. My only client usage is HD300s in the house and now using the miniclient here and there, where I don't have an extender. My reason for going to 64-bit is exactly what is mentioned, I want a larger heap to not overwhelm my server.
My biggest lament is that I can't play my unconverted MPEG2 recordings (or live TV, OTA via HDHR) on the miniclient on my Fire Sticks or Android TV (I've had some discussion about this in other subforums but there doesn't seem to be much resolution) How does Plex do this with their Live TV option? I don't believe it transcodes on the fly (it can do that but I have it disabled and OTA plays fine in Plex on my Fire Stick). And the comment about me not being in a rush is true, I've lived with it this long... but my RAM upgrade arrived and I installed it last night, so....

So I'm finally found time to attempt the leap to 64 bit and realized that there used to be instructions for how to move a Sage installation, somewhere on this forum. Like, you had to change some line in properties or something, then change it back after the move? But then I saw this in the 64-bit instructions:

Then install Sage 64bit - don’t install over the top of your old 32-bit Sage, make sure it gets installed to its own separate directory (the default location should be ok). Then make sure it starts up OK. If everything looks ok, go ahead and setup your recording directories, get your remote control, tuners and your EPG setup, and make sure you are able to play back recordings. Once everything is working, shut it down and copy over your wiz.bin. Then restart and make sure everything is still ok. It may take longer than normal the first time because I think Sage will need to update wiz.bin. At this point, Sage should be functional, I would make another backup, before installing plugins or doing any customizations. If you are comfortable editing the .properties files, you may want to copy and paste some stuff from your old properties file to the new to save time. For example, I use the Malore menus and have done a lot of customizations (naming views and setting filtering and sorting) - you can copy over all the lines from the properties file related to that and save a lot of time reconfiguring everything. It’s much safer to go line by line through the properties files and only copy the stuff you understand and want to keep. If you copy the whole file, you will probably end up with a lot of junk you don’t need, and you will probably have some incorrect paths and settings that will cause things not to work correctly. And of course always remember to shut down Sage and stop the Sage service before editing the properties files.
