which operating system do you use? What means "My downloaded itunes library"?

Decokiko commented 1 year ago

I use windows, i mean ive downloaded songs on the cloud onto my library on itunes and onto my hard drive

Decokiko commented 1 year ago

The downloaded songs on my library show up as ive scanned itunes to be the library i want to use but they wont play

ronso0 commented 1 year ago

Can you play the songs when you drag and drop them onto a deck in Mixxx?

Decokiko commented 1 year ago

No i cant, its very strange how they wont play

Swiftb0y commented 1 year ago

If you bought the tracks on the iTunes store, there is a good chance they have DRM. What kind of files are you trying to play exactly?

Decokiko commented 1 year ago

I have apple music as my streaming service so its just songs on that, it gives you the option of using it as a library yet wont work, just mp3 as far as i know

Swiftb0y commented 1 year ago

As far as I know songs from apple music have DRM on them and you can't play them outside apple-only/licensed software. Mixxx can only play files you have locally which are DRM-free, which is not the case with your apple music files.

I guess these are YouTube Rips that claim to be MP3 but actually contain AAC data in a DASH container.
