does anyone know why edna earth doesnt work with kontakt 6 ?

 

That happened to me also. K6 couldn't find "Earth.nicnt". I had originally used "Spitfire Earth.nicnt" as the nicnt file, but after that error, I renamed it to Earth.nicnt, and it started working again.

 

i think you need to add the library to the kontakt browser list.

 

Same here with Kontakt 6 Portable. eDNA did work but I switched to Kontakt Portable some months ago and did not check eDNA, but after I read this post, I did and found out it is not working anymore.
Error massage when trying to load an instrument:
"This instrument belongs to a library that is currently not installed"

Of course it is installed and shows up just normal in the library tab, but...

 

ok thnx guys

 

Please let us know which was the problem in your case. Thanks

 

Hey Jazzzz !

Thank you very much for the tips. eDNA is working now!

First of all, I use the portable version of Kontakt 6.0.2 R050.
I removed eDNA from Kontakt with the Library Manager.

Searched in my registry, but I think because I use the portable version there was nothing found to be removed.
I checked the .nicnt File and i said exactly what you posted here.

My NativeAccess file also did not have anything inside with regard to eDNA, BUT
in c:\Program Files\Kontakt6Portable\UserData\Service Center\ I found a file named LibraryHints.xml.
After adding eDNA to Kontakt again, I found this:

<Library>
<Name>Spitfire eDNA Earth</Name>
<Company>(Self-made)</Company>
<SNPID>A0C</SNPID>
<Relevance>
<Application nativeContent="true">Kontakt</Application>
</Relevance>
<RegKey>5F752C43-C7B9-48B6-AFFB-E5527011ADA5</RegKey>
</Library>

Then I changed the <SNPID from A0C to 519 in LibraryHints.xml and all of a sudden - the library worked ;)

So the SNPID code was the problem, as you said. Thanks man!

Hope others can make eDNA workable again too.

 

works fine here..... I have OLD version.... still w8ting for Santa for little update ;p

 

awesome, so thankful for this info guys! finally got this great lib to work in my portable kontakt 5.8. i had to delete the xml code from within the earth.nicnt that came originally with the earth library - replacing that with this xml from jazzz's comment above:

<Product version="2">
<UPID>4648f8ea-76ed-4b91-9854-0459c8b429e1</UPID>
<Name>Earth</Name>
<Type>Content</Type>
<RegKey>Earth</RegKey>
<SNPID>519</SNPID>
<AuthSystem>RAS2</AuthSystem>
<Relevance>
<Application nativeContent="true">Kontakt</Application>
</Relevance>
<PoweredBy>Kontakt</PoweredBy>
<Visibility>0x01</Visibility>
<ProductSpecific>
<HU>A3C6AF392BC42283713EE4E29818B001</HU>
<JDX>EE22CB97130A83F10E3C8D345BEC6A9C1C384FF969F281EE500013D26B185397</JDX>
<Visibility type="Number">3</Visibility>
</ProductSpecific>
<Company>Spitfire Audio</Company>
<NKSEnabled>false</NKSEnabled>
<Icon>spitfire</Icon>
</Product>

then edit the LibraryHints.xml file inside my portable kontakt folder and manually add in the xml below and when i went to add the library and load some instruments, everything magically worked. no more annoying errors in kontakt; i can use this amazing library again; cheers!:

<Library>
<Name>Spitfire eDNA Earth</Name>
<Company>(Self-made)</Company>
<SNPID>519</SNPID>
<Relevance>
<Application nativeContent="true">Kontakt</Application>
</Relevance>
<RegKey>5F752C43-C7B9-48B6-AFFB-E5527011ADA5</RegKey>
</Library>


note - i did also delete any entries for edna earth in my registry(on win7) but i'm not sure if that actually did anything since kontakt portable works inside it's own sandbox environment.

WTF is this?
RegKey should be the name of the library. And this code doesn't even match with any of the codes in the .xml
Where did you get this from?

Edit:
I realized that it was in Andreas' post. Hmm, very strange, why is it in the LibraryHints.xml this way.

Quick way to solve this problem without modify .nicnt file:
After you added eDNA to library it does not show up because for some reason the name that register in Registry (Spitfire Earth) and NativeAccess.xml (Earth) is not match, so to solve this is just change the registry name from "Spitfire Earth"to "Earth" .
[Computer/Software/Native Instrument/Spitfire Earth] (Right click on this folder and rename it to "Earth) .

Hope this help.

 

Was wondering if someone could help me. My eDNA doesnt work because I have either corrupted or lost a file called Spitfire Earth_info.nkx

Hope someone can share this file to me.
