After your show if all goes well with 5.07 I would first create a restore point.
Then re-download Hoster 5.08.11 just in case there was something wrong with the download.
If your music files are on an external drive be sure to have it connected then install as normal as an upgrade, do not uninstall anything, then it should use all your existing settings from 5.07 when installed.
If you are still getting the error on play open the C\MTU\Hoster folder and inspect the quarantine folder to see if the songs in the playlist are listed there. If the file in the quarantine folder is a KMA then see if it will play from the K-oke button by browsing the quarantine folder to load it to the playlist, you won't be able to do this if it's a kmh.
If it's a kmh it would only move the header file here, you could only test that by browsing to the original folder containing the file.
If none of your playlist files are showing in the quarantine folder delete the songs.mdb and re start Hoster, again if your song files are on an external drive be sure to have it connected before restarting, Hoster should rebuild the database before opening.
If you find a lot of the files are in the quarantine folder let us know, see how you get on with the info so far
When you say "This has always worked until yesterday when suddenly no files would play" Was 5.08 running correctly before this happened ?
When you tried playing from the edit dialog, what happens there ?
