Is there any way to import an MC16 library into MC15?  I've tried restoring a library backup made in MC16, but it doesn't work.  I've also tried exporting to XML in MC16 and them importing this as a playlist in MC15.  All this does is load the XML file into the "recently imported" playlist, and does nothing else.

Fiddled around and came up with a method that worked... In MC16, I went to audio -> files and selected the root folder containing my music files.  I then exported this as an mpl playlist.  I then went to MC15, created an empty library, and imported the playlist.  This imported the files and playback stats into MC15, the way I was expecting xml to do.  I had to update the info from tags to get the artwork, but it seemed to work great.  I've still got some cleanup involving playlists and podcasts, but all appears to be well.

Not sure if this was the best way, but it worked.  Maybe this info will help others who are trying to do something similar.
