Computer CD drives/ programs are more picky about condition of CDs than karaoke players, but once you get a good copy onto the hard drive, you no longer have to worry about deterioration like you would have with a CD and player. You sometimes need to play with the compression ratio and drive speed settings to get the cleanest copy. I have one CD that we had replaced because it consistently gave us bad imports. In testing the recent versions of HOster I found that even that bad CD imported much cleaner than it used to. Hoster is getting better.

This is a known bug and has been found and fixed. MTU should be releasing the update soon. (According to News page 30 November but could be a a couple days either way, depending on any other problems found.

Look under Tools/ playback Offset you can advance or retard the audio to sync the audio and graphics up. Could be a delay in your audio or video settings.
