TraktorSync 1.0 released

TraktorSync is a simple application that copies the "date added" field from your iTunes music library into your Traktor library. It does this by reading both program's library files, and then saving a new, updated version of the Traktor library file.

Download it here: TraktorSync-1.0.zip (link fixed)

Usage

First, make sure that neither Traktor nor iTunes is running. Also, you should have at least Java 1.5 installed.

Unzip the TraktorSync-.zip file into it's own folder. Open a command prompt, and enter:

java -Xmx512M -jar TraktorSync.jar

Enter the correct paths to your iTunes music library (the XML file), and you Traktor collection.NML. To start the import process, press "Import".

A new collecion.nml file will be written to the current working directory (where you double-clicked the JAR file). You can use this file to replace your original traktor.nml (after making a backup).

The program will maintain a file ~/.traktorsync.properties, where the selected paths are remembered for future runs.
