takes an hour to import a cdj WHY?
 

I just recieved my rack mount yesterday, It is taking approx. a hour to add each cdg disc. No one ever answers when i call mtu, (Is there a real person there) I need HELP my first show is in two weeks and the way this is going I will still be loading two months for now. right now i am loading sweet georgia brown cdg THANK YOU

have you tried importing different brands ??

are these original disc's ?

are they clean ?

If the disks are dirty or scratched, clean them real good before importing. Hoster tries to fix errors it finds while importing.

also sometimes it pays to copy a cdg disk before importing it. I have found disks that took an hour to import. First copy the disk, and it will import in a couple of minutes. This is because it is a clean copy.

burning slow
 

I have now started to clean each disc. than i remembered a kj who would use a hair dryer to warm up his discs. i did that the first one i put in did it in 13 minutes. Approx how long does it take on a average. now i am doing another one and again real slow. do different discs take longer? same brand just different disc. I am now on song #4 20 minutes. I KNOW i am
a beginer in this i do admit it. also the window media player always comes up saying unkown tracks if i "X " it out it asks me if i am sure so i just minamized it. At the start of doing this I kept on getting a screen saying updates are available or do you want to run what you allready have (something like that) i clicked run with what i allready have. Maybe I was wrong with that?? do not know.
i do not know how to make a copy of the disc, i do not have a cdg player just hoster. I did buy the second hard drive do you think i should buy a cdg palyer too. Like i said before i call and call mtu never get a real person leave messages with my home phone and cell phone # have not recieved any call backs. I have looked over the manual. could not find nothing there.
also i see there is a duet key. how do i use that? when i see a list that has duet songs on it i highlite it and click duet, but it is not coming up as a duet when i practice with search. nothing in manual (that i found) showing me how to put songs in different catagories, I think i should find someone in ne wisconsin who is running this and i can go there
thank you very much . ps i tried to put in a chartbuster but it started slow so i just want to try to put in all the swet georgia brown first

I dont recommend the hair dryer. That can damage a disk.

It sounds like you may need to disable the cd autoplay feature.

need to check that your cd player/ide controller is set to DMA mode rather than PIO.

another suggestion is Read the manual It is very well written, and informative.

Clean them
 

Make sure they are clean and scratch repaired I've been burning for four
days and am on disc #270:)

thanks everyone!

I disabled windows media player and it is going MUCH faster... about 1 minute for each track. I am using whatever is is the brand new hoster rack mount system. just delivered it yesterday 03/08/06. Just kinda bummed did not realize it would take so long. I have 250 or so discs to load. So much to do and so little time. thanks to all of you for the great advice.
I will print out the whole manual when i am done with this.

Join the club
 

I know what ur going through, I have 400 discs Im trying to burn since december.im on disc 260..............patients is a vertue...........whats a vertue?? :)

700
 

I've got 705 to load:e

Hands Full
 

Good Luck Goons..................

I wonder why it's taking so long per disc. I didn't have these problems and i had over 2,000 cdg's to import. It only took a few weeks to do it when i got in the groove.

Not having much trouble
 

Accept for a few Chartbuster I haven't been having much trouble
I've been running about ten minutes per disc.:):g

hi
 

Are you listening to each song after you get them uploaded? just because you have them on the computer doesnt mean there right!!!... i have been going back and redoing tons of songs, as a mater of fact there's songs i will not be able to use so i will have to replace them.... the ones that seem to take the longest to load are usually the ones i have been having to redo..not in all cases but generally the most case... another thing i have learned, the NEW CD+G's load the best..I been trying to load CD+G's that are 3 years old, geeze.... had to buy a buffer to fix scratches!!!! and that dont work alot of the times!! so all i can say is take your time and Good Luck!!!! it'll be worth it after all is said and done!!!
