o.k i did two hours on the vdj radio last night ..all was o.k.
then whe trying to get on radio this morning i got a connection error.so i restarted vdj and to my surprise "internal database corrupted"!!!
now am i able to use the databasefixer for this? reason i ask is cause when i go to my xml file it only shows 1 song !! so will it bring my songs back or do i have to do a reinstall of vdj and scan all my files again? any help is appeciated
on the plus side , i did my set and some of my friends text me saying it was a nice set.even though i had no bpm's ,no virtual folders,no playlists,etc...(kinda sucks when i only 1 1/2 mins to go on the air "live" .. but as they say "the show must go on" heheh
thanks

What program did you open the XML file in ?
If you opened it in say Internet Explorer, it will only show about 1-2 entries, although there are plenty more...
Try open it in Notepad.. to see the whole XML content
If there is lots there, use the Database fix tool

Just back up the Database(User).xml file anytime you add or analyze to a safe spot and this wont be a nightmare. I am assuming you had a backup but wanted to see why this happened. Happy Spinnin

If you read the readme of my tool and set the right options it will back up your database after every use of VDJ -- Or, run the tool after every use and it will do the same.

Hey guys,
I made a tricky thing. I first moved my VirtualDJdatabase from Virtual DJ directory out. Saved it. Then I let Virtual DJ to create a new database. That took him a little time. I mean it was after few restarts, track scan and so on.... And at last I tried to copy the previous stuff, everything what was in the former database using notepad program and copied everything, and happily everything works :-D
Maybe will help some individuals here ;-)
