Re: ERROR when playing protected WMA files in Hoster

I think I figured the problem out, but, I am not crazy about the solution.

I think the problem is the length of the PATH to the song. When I imported my music using Windows Media Player, I put the music in a folder in a folder :/My Music/Wma Files/.

Media player put in 2 more folders - 1 for the Artist & 1 for the Album. So now we have C:My Music/WMA Files/Blood Sweat and Tears/Blood Sweat And Tears Greatest Hits/Lacretia Macevil.wma

The songs that play have short names & a short artist name. So far every song I have copied to the My Music Folder with just the Song Name will play. I have over 15,000 songs on my drive and wouldn't want to do this for all of them, but, we don't play alot of Dance Songs during our Karaoke shows (If I can just figure out which ones to copy in a simple directory).

Of course resolving the problem would be great, if MTU can verify that this is actually what is causing the problem.
