Virtual DJ Database

Christopher started this chat 3 months ago

Hi

My VDL music and database.xml is located on an external drive e: and I am trying to import. However, when I edit the location for the xml files I can select the folder but the import window doesn't reflect this and it tries using my documents folder.

Help!

MIXO should automatically locate the XML file if it's contained within a "VirtualDJ" folder (which is created by VDJ). You can then uncheck the others and Reparse.

See example attached.

Thanks, it was odd as it never set the folder. I unticked the boxes and restarted Mixo and this time it has located my correct XML file.

Next issue (sorry)

It imported but is missing loads - see attached. That folder should contain a full A-Z sub list. Is there a limit?

also this count is wrong as I've 10 times that many. Have I missed a step somewhere?

If you've only imported from one XML, then maybe your other tracks are located on another drive and therefore they will be in the other XML.

Same goes for the playlists - they are scattered across drives, depending on the tracks within them. Pretty messy setup to be honest!

No all music is on the e: drive as it is the master location I use for radio and DJ'ing. The files are not on the laptop drive.

I'll open up the XML file and see if that is the cause

Thanks

You can search for "<Song" to see how many matches there are.
