That's great news. I thought it was only for Traktor & iTunes.
Thanks for that!!

No offense and generally speaking: Why not trying something upfront guys? You can't break anything ;)

No offense, but your comment doesn't help this thread at all.
I actually did try this with Traktor, which continuously crashes CrossDj. I tried this before with Serato, but couldn't find / didn't know which file to import. That's the whole reason for me starting this thread. I thought I was doing something wrong, but the fact is I still don't know which Serato file I'm supposed to select. If you have any useful info pertaining to the actual title of this thread for us, I'm all ears ;)

I'm afraid to my knowledge you can't import your Serato Database

From the online Cross PDF manual (page 83)

http://www.mixvibes.com/sites/default/f ... manual.pdf

Cross makes it easy to import collections and tracks from Traktor, Rekordbox, and from Virtual DJ. During the import not only the audio files are imported, but also any playlists that you have created in the supported third party applications.

I guess Jim B is right.
Moreover, I'm not sure Serato gives a safe access to its database.

I imported databases from traktor 3-4 times and never had problems. Only problems that had to do with stored cues and loops and the Team solved them.
Did you check the key letter from you hard disc to be same as it was in traktor collection?
I'll check it again now.

It all comes down to the point of being less precise
