Automatic update of playlists + batch playlist import

Hi:

Since my questions are not of a technical problem per se, I decided to not copy/paste all the required stuff for a rekordbox post.

I have 2 questions:

  1. Can rekordbox automatically update playlists created in iTunes that were imported into rekordbox?

Say I create a deep house playlist in iTunes, import it into rekordbox and it has 20 tracks. I then add 5 more tracks to the playlist in iTunes but this doesn't get updated in the playlist in rekordbox. Is there a way around this?

  1. If not, is there a way to import all playlists from iTunes into rekordbox as a batch instead of importing one by one?

I could live with this - keep updating all my stuff in iTunes and then everytime I open rekordbox just import all playlists as a batch, but doing it one by one is a lot of work, especially when you have many playlists.

Maybe I'm missing something here and that's why I decided to just ask.

Thanks,

F

So I assume I should just add this to the list of things rekordbox cannot do?

I do all my playlist work in iTunes collected in a folder called "Rekordbox" that I import in to Rekordbox via bridge. Every time I add a tune or change something I simply delete the whole folder in Rekordbox and re-imort it. Takes a few seconds, easy work around since there's no automagic functionality between the applications.

I think it would be great if recordbox could "read" itunes just as Serato can. In serato you dont have to import anything it, simply open the software and POOF, your entire itunes library is mirrored right there. works perfect.
