Hey there, bought a Prime 2 and as a mobile DJ i want to change from using Notebook and Virtual DJ on a MCX 8000 + Daslight on another Notebook to that All In One solution on the Prime 2 with Engine Lighting. But before even starting i can’t be more frustrated.
First i updated that Prime 2 to the latest version 2.0.2. and installed Engine DJ 2.0.2. on my Windows Notebook (i5/ 16GB RAM). As a next step i want to bring my library from the notebook into the Desktop Software. It starts working fine via Drag & Drop into Collection and Playlists. At some point the software crashes randomly. First i thought it only happens when a folder has more than 1000 files (it turned out to happen randomly). Sometimes it happens early, sometimes it happens after 25.000 tracks have already been read into the software.
After crashing the only way out is a cold reset of the notebook. Afterwards the playlist folders are still into the Engine DJ software but there are no tracks in the collection anymore. I can try to restore the latest backup. after loading the backup there are still no songs in the collection.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Engine DJ plenty times. I erased all leftover folders by hand.
How can i fix the problem? Is there any other (even better) way to bring the music from my notebook to the Prime 2?
I want to work with the Prime 2 standalone in the end using Engine Lighting by Soundswitch too. It all sounds too amazing to be true. But all that i experienced so far is the same frustrating moments that i remember trying to use the MCX 8000 standalone with the Engine software back in 2016/2017
Thankful for your answers, Chris
