I have successfully imported normal CDG files, but it was a trying journey. I ended up getting a Plextor drive from MTU, but had a lot of problems getting the aspii driver to work (I need that driver as I run XP, which does not include aspii). Of course, I had to get XP service pack 2 in the first place, plus virus and firewall programs (Symatec 360), and deal with the general horror of the Microsoft universe. But there is no good Mac alternative. I tried the demo of KJams (kjams.com), but it does not play video back smoothly. I think Hoster is a much more mature program. I'll let you know how the SCDG conversions go tonight (these files are in a proprietary format used by Nutech).

Keep one thing in mind that you can still only have 99 songs per bookID in Hoster. Several have tried to work with those but it isn't possible yet. The next release is supposed to be fixing this, but no date has been set for that release yet.
