Rekordbox XML Import BUG from Mixed in Key

I have exactly the same problem using the same versions. Somebody can help me? I don't know what else to do. 

Hi Carlos,

The last time I successfully exported the cue points to rekordbox was September 2021. I tried today, and it didn't work for me. So I did the same process as the MIK tutorial says, but I got nowhere. I started looking at the files and realised that when I exported the rekordbox XML file, it was 53K kb in size, and when I linked and exported the cue points from MIK, it changed the XML file to a smaller size like 42K kb. 

I am not sure which software is causing this issue at this stage.

make sure un MIK you dont write tempo or beat grid. rekordbox is for beatgrid and bpm. MIK is for key and adding cue points.

my extended list is:
import songs to rekordbox
select files and import to collection, for it to analyze
fix beatgrid for all (this is important since MIK will mark cue points based on that).
backup the work on beat grid (File > Library -> Backup library). only the DB not the songs themselves.
export the XML file from rekordbox (File > Export Collection in XML format)
close rekordbox.

open MiK and import the same songs into MIK, allow them to analyze
select relevant files. re-tag songs
click the Edit tags tab -  remove spaces
click Personalize tab - Export Cue Points for Existing Files. if it takes too long for update the xml it means the rekordbox locking it. close both and retry.
close MIK, go back to rekordbox

click the refresh button beside the rekordbox.xml tree item
right-click on the MIK Cue Points playlist, select all files. import to collection - if prompted to overwrite, click yes
changing all key to camelot type: in rekordbox: collection-> reload tag

Hello

When you are using the Crate functionality from BPM Supreme to download a entire set of mp3 files, then Mixed in Key will not work properly, and no XML files will be imported into Rekordbox.

To make it work, you need to download mp3 files individually, without using the Crate Zip option from BPM website. At least, this worked for me.

Hello All,

I also faced a similar problem MIK vs. RekodBox Cue import issue. I have already contacted the MIK support team but no favorable answer from them.

Anyhow, I worked on my side and finally fixed the issues after spending almost 06 hours. It looks like it is the Bug from the MIK end. Let me explain how I set it, and I hope that will help others.

Root Cause

The file name has special characters, URL links, or accent characters that cannot read my MIK and includes the Title of the Song.

How to Fix:

• Rename the file removing all the above characteristics, and get the nice file name before adding it to the MIK.
• Then Import to Rekodbox for those files.
• Then add those files into MIK and make sure Song Title also not having the above characteristics.
• If all are OK in MIK, Open the RekordBox and Reload the Tags.
• Now delete rekordbox.xml and MIK.xlm if they are already there.
• Reopen the RekordBox and recreate the rekordbox.xlm and ensure it is pointing to the correct XML in advance.
• Close the RekordBox, open the MIK, and click the Export Cue point option.
• After that is over, reopen the Rekordbox software, and under the rekordbox.xml navigation - MIK Cue points will appear.
• Then import to Collection.

This is how I fixed the issue.

Hi, i believe in the end it was a bug in rb 6.6. Been struggeling for few hrs too, watching over and over the instructions of MIK, no luck.

I updated recordbox to version 6.7, did the reload recordbox.xml and imported all songs in my playlist. ALL oke now, everything including cuepoints are present 🥳
