Hi Darren,
I posted the following message in one of the thread in the Genos General forum. I re-post this here just in case you did not catch it.
Hi Darren,
Don't worry. The process of importing Tyros 5 Music Finder database file to Genos Playlist file is quite straight forward.
I downloaded a sample Tyros 5 Music Finder database file "Tyros5MF.mfd" and copied it to the USB stick to be used as USB1 port underneath the Genos.
To make it simple, unplug all USB drive sticks from the Genos, just plug in your USB drive stick with your backed up Tyros5MF into the USB port underneath the Genos. Then power on Genos, the USB stick underneath your Genos will be USB1.
After I inserted the USB stick to USB1 port, I did the following to import the Tyros5MF.mfd file into a songlist with the same name:
1. Press the white "Playlist" button to get the this screen, then press the Playlist name, in my case "User_Example":

2. You will be presented with this screen for Music Finder source, choose USB1, then press on the MFD file, in my case "Tyros5MD" MFD file:

3. You will be prompted for confirmation of Music Finder importing your Tyros Music Finder file to a new Playlist file with the same name, choose "Yes" and the system will execute the importing, which will take quite a while, depending on the number of records in your Music Finder database. Just be patient and maybe take some time to drink a cup of tea or coffee.

4. Finally, the system will complete the Music Finder importing process and will present you this screen. Press "OK" to continue:

5. You will then be presented the following screen, in which you will find both the "Tyros5MF" MFD file, and the newly generated "Tyros5MF" Playlist file. Now press "Exit" button, or the cross at the upper corner of the screen:

6. Now you are back to the Playlist screen with the new playlist "Tyros5MF":

The above process was very straight forward, but time-consuming.
Due to time constraint, I did not try importing the Music Finder database file from USB2 (front USB port).
Please remember to turn on the OTS Link. I tested several songs and verified that the registrations recalled were properly performed.
I did not own Tyros 5, but I own PSR-S970. Genos to me is much more friendlier and versatile than the PSR-S970. Give it some time and you will love Genos.
Thanks,
Paul

I just found this thread after failing to get the bonus playlists to work.
I'm amazed the included instructions could be so wrong. It makes no sense.

The instruction included with the Genos bonus playlists from step no. 5 on was wrong, did not provide any correct procedure for the Genos owners to follow. I had to do some trial and error to figure it out.
Thanks,
Paul
