I have never used SyncLibrary and tried it, using a Hanspree tablet as the server, copying to the RCA tablet. It took over two hours to compare 1458 pieces, but ended successfully. I'm rather surprised and disappointed that it went so slowly, as they started >99% the same. A second SyncLibrary (they are now 100% identical) did not go much faster, and found a bunch of duplicates, each of which I had to select manually. I had hoped this would be an efficient way to add a few songs -- add them to one tablet and SyncLibrary to the others.
My HP Chromebook had a thousand duplicate songs, due to problems connecting to the Companion app. So I cleared its library and did SyncLibrary from the same Hanspree. It succeeded, going almost twice as fast.
That's pretty slow just to add a handful of songs, so I'll probably use an SD card and the USB adapter. (That's better than the Companion app, as I must run it in a Windows Virtual Machine on my Mac.)
I didn't sync up my second Hanspree tablet, because it just died some more -- its touch screen stops responding a minute or so after waking it up
. This one is noticeably slower than the others, it cannot connect to the Google Play Store (for updates), and its battery now lasts less than a half hour. Since I now have three other tablets I'll probably give up on it and recycle it.
