YOUR QUESTION:
Hi. I’m aiming to use One Library but can’t find an answer to this: I do Silent Discos and want to organise four different playlists on my main (Mac) laptop then transfer them to 3 other (windows) laptops. I understand that One Library will transfer the files, playlists, cue points etc but my question is: If I already have some of those songs on my other machines will it duplicate them? Likewise if I make small additions to my music library in my main laptop and then transfer via One Library will it move the whole library again or just the changes?
Notes:
If you changed any metatags (title, artist, genre, comments, etc.), you must use Copy files to internal storage to update the library in My Collection.
Copy files to internal storage copies ALL files in a USB playlist → Macbook (it does not look for changes). If a file already exists on the Macbook, it will be overwritten with the USB file.
One Library only transfers files that aren’t already on the target computer. So it won’t duplicate your existing songs. If you add new tracks or make changes on your primary laptop, it only transfers new or updated files and playlists, not your entire library again.
