1) I find the following very confusing. Can someone explain this in more simpler terms for me?
NEW Options... "Include Songs Database" In Auto Complete Lists - This check box enables using your imported Songs Database Title and Artist names. When disabled, only the Import Local Database is used to create the Title and Artist lists for the Edit Songs, Import CD Tracks and Import HD Files screens. When disabled, this will present the MTU standard Artist and Title names, and build MUCH FASTER. You still have unique "Auto-Complete" options in the 3 screens to disable building and using the lists at all.

AUTO COMPLETE IS ADDED SO WE DON'T HAVE TO TYPE AS MUCH.

2) Import Video - I thought this would be in 4.02 for sure I have been waiting all year for this to be able to re-do my songbooks. I know there have been other issues, but this was promised to be included with 4.0 when it was first supposed to be released in May


MTU WANTED 4.0 TO BE ABLE TO IMPORT VIDEO BUT VISTA IS TURNNING OUT TO BE A PAIN IN THE BUTT TO WORK WITH. THEY HAD TO STOP HOSTER FROM HANGING UP OR CRASHING FIRST. IMPORTED VIDEOS ARE NO USE IF THE PROGRAM WON'T RUN RIGHT.



3) 4.02 says we can now export & print the Singers Database. But what about the ability to Print a Playlist. This is how we saved our Singers' songs for the past couple years while waiting on a Singers' Database!!!!! I feel these requests were more important than some of the "fancy" upgrades to the Show Display screen!!!!

MTU CHOOSES THE ORDER IN WHICH FEATURES GET WRITTEN INTO HOSTER. (PERSONALLY I HAVE NO REASON TO PRINT A PLAYLIST.) ANY REQUEST MADE BY A HOSTER USER IS IMORTANTNT AND WILL BE ADDED TO THE PROGRAM AS DEVLELOPMENT ALLOWS. MOST OF THESE FEATURES WERE INTENDED TO BE IN THE PROGRAM BY NOW BUT VISTA HAS BEEN TAKING ALL OF MTU'S TIME, THANK YOU MICROSOFT! PLEASE CONTINUE TO BE PATIENT.

I hope this helps.
