Operation Manual

The database management system comes with additional tools as part of the VirtualDJ

Configuration Browser tab.

Save ‘On the Fly’ during each session use

Automatic check of database integrity at launch

Manually check the database integrity

Fix database error(s)

Clean out database entries for missing/moved files

VirtualDJ now saves the database immediately when additions or updates are required.

VirtualDJ also validates the integrity of all database files at the launch of the application. If a

problem is detected a message box will be displayed identifying which database has the

problem and what to do to correct the problem.

To correct the problem - here are the steps:

1. Open the configuration dialog

2. Go to the Browser tab

3. Select the Drive from the drop-down

4. Click the ‘FIX’ button

The other options for managing the databases are -

CHECK – this runs a validation of the database to ensure that all database file references are

still valid and existing stored files on that drive. The process simply re-labels the FilePath entry

for the file if it can not be found. Data about that file is not lost.

CLEAN – this process will REMOVE any database information about files that are no longer

valid. This is necessary for cleaning up the Global Search capabilities.
