Comment 1 for bug 1653285

I don't particularly have answers for you - I have been using me-tv for several years on ubuntu 14.04 by way fo linux mint (not my first choice, just easier for multi-media).

The version in ubuntu's default repository probably isn't the most current from the ppa here: https://launchpad.net/~me-tv-development/+archive/ubuntu/ppa Although there isn't one explicitly for the latest release of 16.04, I'd speculate the one for 14.04 should work... but I'm not a developer.

The configuration files are stored in ~/.local/share/me-tv (at least for the 1.4 series) It's an SQlite format.

I hope you get your issues fixed!
