Oh yes that doesn't look right at all! Unless I've woken up 47 years in the future :)


We'll get that fixed ASAP. Thanks for letting us know!

Hi there,

MIXO v1.34 is now live with a fix for Date Added imported from EngineDJ.

Let me know your feedback!

Just tried version 1.35 and issue still exists.....it happens when consistency is checked, which is required to recover album art..... I have a video

We've fixed the Date Added imported from Engine DJ.

It looks like you're using Traktor now, so it's possible you exported before re-importing from Engine DJ with the correct values.

You'll need to re-import from Engine DJ before exporting to Traktor NML. Once you've done that (and the Date Added looks good in MIXO), the Traktor NML 'Import date' will also be correct so when you import that into Traktor it will look correct.

Please let me know if that works.

I did a re import, then exported to Traktor. The dates were correct upon reimporting, but gets changed when the consistency is checked in Trakror......

Please check your exported NML. If those dates do not exist in the NML, it's a Traktor issue.

Attached is a screenshot of my tests.

It appears that if you choose import tags from "file" then check consistency it alters the import date but allows album art to populate. If you choose import tags from "collection" the import date is correct but album art does not populate after consistency check.

When you select 'file' Traktor reads the track ID3 tags instead of the metadata in the NML collection so you should always choose collection.

Unfortunately when collection is chosen no cover art shows up....is there a solution to this? This seems to be a common Traktor issue....

You're absolutely right, it's a weird and common Traktor issue.


There is actually a setting in Traktor that automatically writes tags to the files, so when you import an NML it updates the track ID3 tags. It's possible this will save the correct import date to the track. Then you can Import another Collection but this time choose 'file'.


Just a theory but might work!

I already have "write all tags to files" checked...unfortunately that setting does not make a difference in my case.
