VDJ stores a database on each external drive, they should all be read at the same time. There needs to be a Documents/VirtualDJ/database.xml file, which is the main VDJ database.
Is that file there? Starting VDJ once should create it.
You didn’t change the database location in some VDJ setting?
Can you try adding 1 track from your internal drive into VDJ, then see if that creates the database.xml
The sync should work now. Normally there is always that database file. For me it even creates it without adding a track so I’m not sure why we needed to do that in your case.
Ok. Now I have been able to sync perfectly. It is curious yes, that VDJ created the file for you in that location as soon as you start the program, but it does not happen to me.
By the way, somehow, VDJ has read from a track 8 cue points that it had memorized, which neither Engine nor Traktor did.
Is there a “standard” for storing this information?
What is the best way to assign these cues, so that they are compatible or can be imported and exported between different applications?
It’s probably that it read Serato cues from the music file. I highly recommend you turn that option off, it’s in the VDJ settings somewhere (search for Serato)
Imagine for a moment using Serato as the main application for saving cues… These must be stored somehow embedded in the file, but LXC doesn’t seem to read them directly. VDJ yes.
Let’s see if I explain myself, just asking you as there are some standards for rating the tracks, if is there an appropriate way or best application (Traktor, VDJ, Serato…) to save the cues?
There is no standard. Serato does its own thing, but VDJ also reads those. So if you have a track without VDJ cues, but it does have Serato cues, then VDJ will load those Serato cues.
