4.6 Managing Show Data
All show data is stored on the internal hard disk of the console. Show files and folders are
stored in the Shows folder while libraries are stored in the Libraries folder.
As you edit your show file all of your changes are immediately saved to the console's internal
hard disk. In the event of power failure the Hog 4 OS will have already saved the show data to
disk so that none of your work is lost.
You can use the Sho w Manage r to backup your current show file, check the integrity of
your current show file's data, or to move, copy, and delete existing shows files. Please note
that the currently loaded show file cannot be deleted or renamed.
To open the Show Manager:
