I got some video of using a fresh USB but considering what I’m seeing in the m.db file, I don’t think it really matters. Only soundcloud tracks seem to be affected as well

I’ll test the album art thing. Did you have the album art setting enabled on the Sync screen in Lexicon?

I’ll give it a test soon, but try the same sync without the “Add album art” setting to see if that helps

I went ahead and tried NOT checking ‘Add album art’ and I have not been able to reproduce the issue it with the option disabled. With this turned on, the issue still happens regularly. So the export issue appears to be related to the ‘Add album art’ checkbox

So I was able to export soundcloud tracks consistently in the beta version. I tried 3 times and no issues. But I immediately ran into two new issues when I tried a little more in the beta version of lexicon:
1. In the beta version of lexicon app, I can’t play any of my soundcloud tracks, whether I re-import them from engineDJ or what. Image shown below of the error.
2. In NON-beta versions of lexiconDJ only the first 30 seconds of soundcloud tracks are playing now. This affects all soundcloud tracks. When I load the tracks the wave-forms get replaced with the 30-second versions, though luckily the beatgrids seem to remain unaffected

Next beta should fix that
