How to fix XDJ-RX own key analyis?

Yesterday I had a chance to try out XDJ-RX. Unfortunatelly, it seems to ignore key field entered in Recordbox and displays its own.

These can be really messy, for example A minor instead of A major.

Secondly, it messes up my own naming convention, for instance I mark keys only as sharp while XDJ-RX seems to prefer flat keys.

Is there a way to fix or disable this feature? I won't buy a thing that tries to outsmart me but fails.

I don't own this piece of gear.

How software update could improve that feature?
Changelog mentions some other issue I encountered are fixed, but doesn't say anything about key analysis.

Well, for starters, the RX doesn't analyse the keys itself, rekordbox does that. So if you had already used software to enter data in the initial-key meta field, rekordbox would read it, but it may not show / sort if it's not in a certain notation.

CDJ 900 at least shows exactly what I entered in the field and nothing else. Sorting works simply. In XDJ-RX displayed keys were different than what I entered in Recordbox.

Too bad I didn't take a picture.

Sorry, without additional information, I'm not entirely certain what happened as the RX receives data from the USB device / rekordbox, and does not create that information itself.
