Also after I load a song that djay gives a missing error it does not keep it highlighted as missing .

The files that are giving me problems are local files that djay has the source listed as Apple Music.

Hi @Five-0,

Your video seems to be gone. I’m not experiencing any issues with local files or Apple Music local files myself. But I can imagine this could be a frustrating issue.

Could you elaborate a bit more on what’s happening and/or share the video publicly again?

Hello, same trouble on my ipad pro, some local files appear missing.

Are you by any chance using Lexicon? Just a thought, since it manipulates the database directly.

If you notice …..I played a track that was missing but djay didn’t keep it highlighted as missing. I figured out a work around for my system.

So, you’re saying that the files really are missing? Ok, maybe edit your original post because it isn’t clear. :slight_smile:

Yes the files are missing. But I can’t visually tell because Djay does not mark it as missing. I only find out when I try to load in the deck…. Just like the video shows..

No just iOS and djay

Did you watch the video? It clearly shows my problem

Hi @Five-0, thanks for the details about your setup and the issue. I was not able to replicate this on my end and have passed it onto engineering to see if they can. I’ll report back soon.

Hi @Five-0 and @stef971, engineering is still trying to replicate this issue. Can you please confirm the file formats you are having issues with and where they are stored (internal drive, external drive, iCloud, etc.)? Thanks!
