Field #2: Track
Delimiter #2:. (period)

That's all. It should work. You don't have to use "Ignore" anywhere unless I'm missing something here.

The only thing I can think of is your "DiscID" is a number only. We may currently require it to start with an alphabetic character. If that is the case, we'll take a look at it in Hoster 4.0.

What version of Hoster are you using? Some of the problems you are indicating we thought were fixed in recent versions.
I renamed some of my bins to try this and indeed with {diskid}-{track}. they would import however I could not utilize the database this way. If I selected Brand and Diskid before clicking add files, and then clicked add files, the brand would blank out and diskid would take the one from the file name, and then of course the title and artist fields would be "undefined".Reselecting brand and diskid at this point was of no use.

I tried every which way from Sunday to get them to import with artist and title names, and short of adding a DPT to the front of his diskid name I couldn't use the database.
