Where is that thread?
Desktop and OS Downloads + Manuals | Engine DJ scroll down (maybe expand some text)… al available previous versions can be found there
In this case, you may need to manually transfer the data or use a special tool to convert the database into a form of sustainability.
Just hoping for some direction by someone from Denon. This is too wide spread not to be addressed. And losing playlists is not an option that any of us should have to face.

Thx! i made backups so 'm up & running again.
gona take my time next week doin the upgrade. imo… upgradingprocess shouldn’t be such a hassle… probably it’ll work out fine.
It also says on the bottom of the release text to “update proper before getting into professional environment”
Solution ? Up to now?
Hey David, just to be sure…

Am i on the right path?
Thanks for taking the time to reply

You also have to delete the engine library on your pc/laptop. Folder C:/user/music Engine 3 will create a new one when opening. Be sure also before to have no errors in your files. Scan your collection with mp3 val
David i’ll give it a go and keep you posted.
Thanks for your promt reply
Happy mixin’

Didn’t work ? 
Sorry man! I’ve tried 10 different ways to fix this but no luck for me either.

That’s really weird. I wonder if it has something to do with database that have been imported from other universe, like rekordbox, serato, lexicon… My database is pure engine…May be there is something going wrong with informations that have been converted, who knows. Engine is so unstable. The fact that it’s perfecly working for some users and not for others is very strange.

Not a problem brother, just spoke this with a DJ I know from Ireland 
and he done the update before his set and all is working fine. So I have a new confidence 
hopefully 
thanks for even considering doing it.

It is a little odd I’ll admit. Again hopefully they’re trying to figure it out so they can crank out an update! Fingers crossed!

SOLUTION . . . Since I’m a geek I figured out how to undo this LONG pain bug!! Here are the steps that work perfectly for 15K tracks
- Make sure you have the old version of Engine DJ.
- Make a playlist called ‘All Tracks’ and drag all your files in that playlist ( this will catch any files not in a playlist )
- Export your playlists to a new FRESH drive using Sync Manager. ( takes a while )
- Take the FRESH drive to your Denon Hardware and it’ll convert it ( doesn’t take long)
