Something I didn't notice: The Mel05 files all had the same track number except for one. Mel05-01 - XXX - XXXXX.zip.

Additionally, there were some files that didn't have any artist or track because they were the vocal tracks and when imported didn't get an artist or track.

What I see has happened is Hoster is getting confused and creating these wild book IDs after trying to import the same file more than once, then certain files are either ignored or imported in this high range of book IDs.

Some of them show in the data base, some don't.

I've relabeled the Mel05's and am reimporting the WHOLE data base from scratch.

When I fixed and tried rebuilding, I got a realistic number, but the database didn't reflect what Hoster was saying. Hoster said it found 25721 tracks and that is closer to the 25737 that are there, but like I said, when I looked at the songs database, it was less than 25000.

When I'm done I'll have some notes for installing hoster in replacement of other software, some quirks I notice to save people from getting frustrated.

Thanks again for your help, I'll report back what happens after this import, in 3 hours or so.
