Importing mp3g zip files to hoster

hi...new to the forums. I have seen several threads that address issues concerning importing songs to hoster but not my specific question. I have a folder full of mp3g zip karaoke songs that I want to import into hoster. These were from a previous other karaoke program that I had been running. Now I will be running hoster and I need to import them and convert them to KMA files? At least I think that's what i'll be doing from my reading. My big question is this...when I first uploaded my songs into my harddrive using the other karaoke program I used the template they had so that I could label the files a cetain way to be able to search for them and also so they would come out a certain way in the books. I used this format.

"Artist"-"Title"-"SC7501"-"Tracknumber"

Now the reason I used "Sc7501" instead of "DiscID" is because I want to be able to use my own CD discID to be able to keep my books the same basic format using my KJPro. Of course in order to be able to import them into the other karaoke program and be able to search for them the way I wanted I had to disable the "internal database" on importing so it could use my descpripion and not pull up the pre-entered database info because that would always change my "SC7501" in the DiscID to "The Foundation 7501since it was called that in the internal database. So, I imported them in using the template only and not the "free database" naming. From what Im reading Im not sure Im able to do that with Hoster? Sounds like you can use the database for it to name your files with the pre-entered data already or otherwise it will use the title and artist information and leave the discID and Track# catagorized as "Unknown?" Or am I reading that incorrectly? Will I be able to import my files in and disable the "database" so that I can use my own DiscID instead of the one in the database? Hopefully, I have explained my requests properly. I also need to convert my mp3g zip files to KMA. Is that feature in the hoster or do I have to buy a separate program for that? Thanks!

Lance
