To revert, go to step 5 and rename datafile.edb to datafile.edb.test and rename datafile.edb.original to datafile.edb
Hello!
I asked how to create a blank database because after a lot of "Googling" I found someone who was having the same issue I was having:
Rekordbox not analyzing files.
After creating this blank database and re-opening Rekordbox, I added just a hand full of songs to test if Rekordbox would analyze the files and it did!!!
So part 1 of my little experiment is complete.
Now here lies the problem. I can afford as I don't have the time to re-analyze all of my files as I have close to 2TB of music and videos on my hard drives.
Now that we know how to fix the problem, is there a way where I can get my old collection back in Rekordbox and only have to analyze the new tracks moving forward??
I gave you instructions on reverting back to your original database in the previous post.
If you don't want to analyze the existing tracks, keep your auto-analysis disabled and select the new tracks, right-click and choose "Analyze" from the menu.
