date added empty

Hi there,

I'm not sure how that's possible! When importing new tracks, if the track already has dateAdded (from RB/Engine imports etc) we save it, otherwise we save the current time/date. There are no problems with this logic so I'm a little confused about how this could have happened.

Here's a quick test after importing a track from Serato and exporting the XML to Rekordbox:

Could you provide a screenshot or perhaps your exported XML?

Thanks!

Right, I’m pretty new to this and never used rekordbox so I’m finding my way round it.

If I click on collection, the dates are shown as today in everything.

If I click on rekordbox.xml all my crates are there, info all good, but no date added.

Also, no cue pints etc added unless I load a track to play, then it finds them.

As far as I'm aware Serato does not save date added to the track's tags and since MIXO extracts all the metadata and cues from the track tags, date added will be set to the date you import.

Once you've parsed your XML you need to drag your tracks/playlists into your collection to load all the info.

Here's the recommended approach:

Step 1 - Export your XML from MIXO and load it in Rekordbox, following the guide.

Step 2 - Right-click your playlist in the XML section and choose "Import to Collection".

Step 3 - Select all the tracks in the playlist (also in the XML section) and right-click "Import to Collection".

This is the only way to load changes to existing tracks in Rekordbox.

I hope that helps!

Yep, all there now and in crates/playlists under collection.

Now the disappointing part.

When trying to export to a usb I am unable to load no more than 1000 tracks to each folder and it won’t allow me to transfer my high quality AIFF or MP4 files.

So what a waste of time that was.

No wonder serato is so good.
