in Traktor Software & Hardware

Scenario:
I have 2 tracks in my own beatport playlist, and I add some comments in the Key Text field on track 1.

I then delete the text of the from the Key Text field and something odd happens, the name of the 1st track get copied into the the name of the following track in the playlist.

I am on mac Sequoia 15.5 running Traktor 4.11.23

It sounds like a bug!

    I am going to guess. I think this is because the Beatport Playlists are not really controlled by Traktor.

    To use editing you probably have to import the Beatport Playlist into Traktor as a new "Traktor Playlist".

    Try right clicking in the browser tree on the Playlist you want from Beatport to be edited. Or if you added to your Favorites right click from the Favorites Bar. Then select Import to Playlists. Then you can change the name, add\remove tracks, and upload back to Beatport.

    Use of the Beatport Playlist section is limited because it is not saved to your computer.

    This may not be your issue, but in general i usually Import and edit my Beatport Playlists and download to the Offline Folder. Then from the imported new "Traktor Playlist" i analyze. Then most Importantly Right click and Save Collection from the Collection within the Favorites or Browser Tree . Then use the Preferences area to export the Favorites as well.

    Thanks for your response, Zephry. Unfortunately, none of your suggestions address the issue I'm experiencing.

    If I type "test" into the Key text field on Track 1 and then delete it, the name of Track 1 is incorrectly used to overwrite the name of Track 2—leaving Track 2 with the wrong name. This appears to be a bug.
