Synch manager is inconsistent

When I synch PC and USBs I would like to make sure both playlists and collections are in sync. Here the example of what happens:

If I delete a tune from a playlist on the PC that same change is performed on the device at the time of synching.
If I delete a tune from the collection list on the PC, this tune also disappears from the related playlists on the PC. This change, however is not perfomed on the device when I synch. This is what I am missing

Any possibility to change this behavior?

Thanks!

This is normal behaviour - only playlists have songs removed from the device when removed from the playlist; when removing from the collection it will not remove it from the device's exported list, however it should remove it from the playlist as any playlists on the PC that did contain the song should have it removed and thus the export device would have it removed as well (from the playlist, but not the export collection).

Thanks for the answer.

So I cannot keep synched both collections on PC and devices.

That is a problem because when djing I often select a same BPM range on two identical USBs plugged to two decks (L/R). Then I alternate tunes filtered directly out of the collections (no playlist is here involved). And it is importnat to have the latest updated collection on the devices (i.e. synched with what I have on the PC).

Is ther any other way to perform the above steps without needing to manually update the collections on the devices every time?

Thanks!

The reason it is not removed from the device library (even though it will not appear in any playlists) is "just in case" you didn't want to delete the file from the collection, it doesn't remove it from the export device.
