There needs to be a better way to import Serato Crates, need proper documentation on the process.
Hi @Junior_Pops, thanks for the input. I’ve changed this topic from a General Discussion to a Suggestion and have passed this onto the dev team.
Hi @Junior_Pops, I spoke with the dev team, we don’t currently have documentation on this. However, the import can be started from the configuration assistant available from the “djay Pro” menu.
Thanks but that don’t work properly when you have crates on external drive, this process needs work. Other than that love the improvement on the App.
As i mention that don’t work, i have tried it.
Hi @Junior_Pops, can you please explain in more detail how it’s not working? E.g. are you getting an error or running into another issue?
Hi, when i go home i would send you a video on the process and what’s happening
My music is on an external hard drive with my serato crates,
I use the import crate function and it works for me,
I only use the import crate function so my whole library is imported onto DJay and it shows in the “Playlist Section”
when I DJay, I use the “My Files” Section, The newer files I add will always be updated in this section.
when I DJ at events and I need to search for a track I can easily do this through the “My Playlist” section,
simply because I can search files through Sub folders/ Sub crates,
I can not search Sub folders in the “My Files” section. you only have 2 search options, “Folder search” or “whole library search”
“Whole Library” search takes a long time cause it wants to include every word that includes your search text, this causes DJay to freeze momentarily.
I dont know why it does this
@eecy_cee are your subcrates located on the external or internal Serato folder?
My music is located all on an external, the subcrates folder is also on the Serato Subcrates folder located on the External HDD. When I use the import crate function, I select my external HDD - I waited hours and all it did was import all the music but no crates…
