Consolidating Music for a back up system & KMA Vs. KMH

Good day -
My wife and I, KJ locally and use the Hoster program with the recommendation of a very good KJ Friend.

My problem is that in our first set up over a year ago, we did not pay too much attention to detail on where KMA/KMH were stored and now that I am getting ready to install Hoster on a back up Laptop, I am running into many inconstencies that are driving me batty.

In our first setup:
  1. Disks that were originally imported into Hoster had been saved as KMA files in the C:/MTU/KMA directory.
  2. All of the KMH files were imported from many different file folders from a User directory and reside along with the original HD/Zip files in those folders.
As you are probably aware, KMA files run in Hoster without the need of the MP3-CDG file. In contrast, KMH files are really only a short cut to the original HD/Zip file that must reside in the same folder as the KMH files for Hoster to find and play.

For space, but mostly simplicity, I would like to:
  • Remove all of the original music files off Laptop A & B and store them only on our back up HD.
  • Have all of our Hoster music saved a single folder in the C: directory and preferrably as KMA files to ease duplication from laptop A to laptop B.
Is there an "easy" fix for turning our current KMH files into KMA files??

Is there a reason that HD/Zip files can not be imported as KMA files without having to convert to a BIN file first?

Thanks in advance for your time to read and any assistance you may be able to offfer.
