Not using itunes either.</p></div>djabraxotag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/429650402017-07-17T07:45:59Z2017-07-17T07:45:59ZPlaylist export error<div><p>The error might indicate a character encoding issue. I.e. umlauts or other fancy characters in the file names.</p>
<p>Regarding the order: beaTunes exports in <em>natural</em> order, i.e. not the <em>sort</em> order.</p>
<p>Sort order is what you get when you click on a column header.<br>
Natural order what you get when you click on the <em>empty</em> column header.</p></div>hendriktag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/429650402017-07-17T15:18:36Z2017-07-17T15:18:36ZPlaylist export error<div><p>So if I wanted to export the playlist with it sorted by key, how would I go<br>
about that?</p></div>djabraxotag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/429650402017-07-17T16:21:53Z2017-07-17T16:21:53ZPlaylist export error<div><p>You'd have to first change the natural order of the playlist. You can do so by selecting a start song, right-click, then "Reorder Playlist by...", select "Property", then "Key".</p>

No it should not depend on your Japanese characters.</p></div>hendriktag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/429650402017-07-22T12:03:40Z2017-07-22T12:03:40ZPlaylist export error<div><p>I'm getting the same error even after reinstalling and following the<br>
instructions you gave.</p></div>djabraxotag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/429650402017-07-24T13:42:57Z2017-07-24T13:42:57ZPlaylist export error<div><p>The order issue is not dependent on the Japanese characters.</p>
<p>However, <code>m3u</code> is not a suitable format for any file or playlist that contains non-ISO 8859-1 characters (like Japanese characters). The playlist format that understands those kinds of characters is called <code>m3u8</code>. But as far as I know, Traktor does not support it. You could try to export as <code>m3u8</code> and then change the file extension to <code>m3u</code>.</p></div>hendrik
