do not have legible lyrics
 

i installed 4.01 on my hp Pavillion dx8000 laptop with xp pro and 1 gb ram and I only have the stationary small display.

My old eyes cannot see the smaller screen

where did it go after just one song?

Are you using two screens as in a show or just the computer screen?
Did the whole thing dissapear or just the lyrics part of it?
If you will look in the Tools Menu ther is a command to Reset Displays. That should bring it back into view on your computer.

that's funny i still have the old 3.317, and i used to be able to move my main screen & re-size it, , since i wear glasses, last night while i was doing my show, i tried to re-size my laptop screen,didnt do anything it stayed stationary, my viewer screen was fine, no problem,.. no big deal, i could still read the lyrics i just have to move back a bit., but i was just wondering what happened

Billyo, you can make the Preview screen floating and increase its size to make it easier to read. You can set the font size for the playlist as well if you are having trouble reading that.
I think his problem is he has lost the singers display and not the preview though.

[quote=ddouglass;77830]i did that too, but i got the prompt , something like, hoster display will be re-set after i re-start hoster.. didnt do it caused i had a full house last night, i didnt wanna have to stop , my playlist was full and i wanna keep the rotation going..but anyway i will do it in a bit as soon as get over my hang over:)

[quote=billyo;77844]You do not lose you playlist if you close and re-open Hoster. However, if you have imported any singers CD tracks those would be lost and have to be re-imported. That would be the only reason not to do it. It only takes a couple seconds between singers to do it.

I tried to reset
 

I hit the reset and , no luck.

I closed Hoster and re-entered, no luck. I rebooted and still no luck.

I made the preview float and resized so I can play with it.

I just installed this last night to test at home, so I did not have the external monitor set up.

It worked fine for a few songs and just blipped off the screen.

On my HP Pavillion dv 8000 laptop I run:
AMD Turion 64 Mobile Technology ML-40
2.19 Ghz
2 GB RAm
ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200 Series

I have never had problems previously.

I am making sure I learn the new program prior to deleting my desktop version and installing to my new Sony Laptop.

I decided to bring two computers to shows for my own comfort.

Love Hoster, sure it is just a small glitch.

forgot to mention
 

Yes, I have the preview screen and lost the singer's display

Reset Displays should have brought it back to computer screen. If that won't work then you will need to delete the Hoster setting in the registry. There is a FAQ in the Support section of the MTU web site that explains step by step how to do this.

REGEDIT Worked
 

Thanks so much.

I went to the support FAQ and followed te directions and it seems to work fine.

I do not have time to do a full test right now, but I have my singer's display again.

I am surpised I got help with this on a Saturday morning.

As always, you guys are the best.

Bill

I'm just a Karaoke Porofessional like all the rest of you in here. I am not an employee of MTU. Most of the advice/help you will get in here comes from people who have used the programs a while and usually have a good understanding of how computers work and are not MTU employees either.

Thanks even more!
 

I read VIP and saw VP

Thanks for your kindess.

sskydiverr, I'm sorry you had this problem. Thank you for posting it.

I'm shocked the Tools menu "Reset Displays" button didn't make your Show Display re-appear. That is EXACTLY what it's function was to do... make a disappeared Screen re-appear. :e :r

We'll re-address why it didn't work. It's supposed to emulate the FAQ instructions related to deleting Registry Keys, but save you from having to enter the Registry. :s

Thanks ADMIN
 

Thanks again
