Cannot play tracks in Rekordbox

Hi,

I ran an import from TRAKTOR into Mixo, had an issue with missing artwork which I fixed using the refresh. I can play the tracks ok in Mix, and have cue points etc ok.


I export to Rekordbox format, and follow the instructions to point Rekordbox to the xml path. All the tracks appear in Rekordbox, but I cannot play anything, as it cannot locate the files, and format not supported.

Hi Piers,


Please enable the filePath column in Rekordbox and look at the paths to the files.


If you compare the filePaths in MIXO, does this give some indication to what's happened?


Please let me know and I'll investigate this for you.


Thanks!

That's for such as quick reply! Fixed that problem now.

When the tracks are imported into Rekordbox, it seems I have to 'Analyse' the tracks to be able to load and play.

Once the Analysis is done, I can load into a deck, and ONLY then does the track play, Artwork appear, and all Cue point etc. Is that normal? I'm concerned it will be overwriting all my metadata as in RB the warning states pre Analysis - BPM, Grid and Key will be overwritten.

Glad you got it working, although that doesn't sound right to me.


I'll have a play around with RB myself and see what happens but usually you just refresh the xml and the tracks appear and work.

Hi Piers,

I could not replicate this issue.

Could you possibly send me a screenshot of the 'Location' and 'File Type' columns in Rekordbox for any tracks where you encounter this problem?

See example attached.

Thanks in advance! I'll try to figure this out for you.

Ok. Will do.

I will also run a fresh import from Traktor into MIXO, and output into Rekordbox. Just to test out the end to end again.

Hi Piers,


Just following up to see how your fresh import went?


Please let me know if you have any questions or require any further support.
