I have decided it's time to upgrade.
Can I backup my BI3 settings and import it in to BI4, or do I need to start from scratch and setup all cameras and motion again ?

If I remember correctly, I just installed 4 over 3 and didn't need to import settings.

What gordo said...note there have been significant changes in the program so you will have to make changes to motion detection adjustments among others...

So I decided to install BI 4,
Exported all cameras, and system.
Uninstalled BI 3,
Did a defreg.
Installed BI 4.
Running it in demo over the weekend.
Imported all cameras.
Did have to do as fenderman said about the motion.
But all seems working.
Going to leave it running over the weekend and have a look at it later.
Did notice that it was using less cpu than BI 3.
Like the look too.
Hopefully purchase licence after the weekend.

Fingers X

Thanks for the advice all.
