Corrupt collection

[Plaatjesdraaier]

Hello,

I tried your program and it finds 528 duplicates.
After I clean them up, everything seems normal but when I start Traktor it seems that the collection is corrupt.
As I always backup before I do anything, I can restore my collection but it would be nice if the clean up would work :-)
I use version 2.11.0.23(traktor) on a Windows computer

Hey, I have never run into a corrupted collection before. It actually make a collection backup before making changes. It can be found in the Traktor data folder. What operating system are you using? Can you send me your original and modified collection.nml? Cheers, Roman

Hello Roman,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

After cleaning TL displays a red box without text...

and when I start Traktor :

The produced collection.nml is truncated. No wonder Traktor tags it as invalid.
It seems like Python's default XML parser has problems with working with such big files. A different way to parse collection.html should solve the issue.

I know it's a big collection and I'm trying to reduce it. (I already removed about 30.000 songs) ;-)

Hi Roman,

Perhaps it would be handy if one could choose between cleaning up the library or creating a playlist with all the duplicates (or 2 playlists, one with the selected duplicates to remove and one with the tracks to keep)
This way one can clean up not only the library but also the duplicate files themselves in traktor manually
