cannot find any reference to what version of ets projectfile can be imported.

[koenbroumels]

i have a ets3 project file (a *.pr5) but it seems that that doesn't work. But on the infoscreen in Homeassistant i don't see any reference to what versions are supported.

Hi 👋! ETS 4, 5 and 6 .knxproj files are supported.

[koenbroumels]

I’m gonna try to use this exporter.. will report if succes, you could add this info to readme or faq for future users?

[farmio]

I did think it says "knxproj file" somewhere... but maybe that got missing in an update or translation. Anyway, ETS 3 is EOL since almost 14 years; I wouldn't expect this to be supported in any recent software, let alone non-commercial 😬

[koenbroumels]

It still works for me.. and ets had some really fast follow-up releases imho..

[farmio]

4 and 7 years for the major versions... yeah for Knx standards that's quite fast 🤣

Did the exporter app work for you?

[koenbroumels]

no time yet.. i'll let you know in 2 to 4 years.. lol

--edit booting my windows95 vmware takes time too... :-)

[koenbroumels]

Should I backup my own added knx parts from the “yaml"?

will this import overwrite the current :knx ?

[farmio]

No, your yaml isn't touched in any way.

[koenbroumels]

nope.. but i had errors with converting too.. so that might be related.

[farmio]

There should be more detailed error messages in your HA logs. But yes, converting without errors probably helps.

I tried again with exports without any export errors but it keeps getting stuck on the same item..

i opened the knxproj without trouble in ets6.. going outside for a swim.

[farmio]

Hm.. I've never seen such a conversion result, so can't really say what schema version this is / why the Project.xml isn't found there. But when you can import it to ETS 5 / 6, you should be able to export it again and get a supported format.
