To keep the rotation I have created a dummy song file using an existing song I imported it as a custom assembly gave it a BookID of 9999 and changed the Title to ****Need Song**** That stands out on the playlist.
The external drive changing letters is unfortunately a Microsoft issue. If you plug in the external drive and turn it on before you start the computer it will usually not change. If that doesn't work then instead of rebuilding the database, go to Start\Control Panel then click on Computer Management. In there you will see a Disk Managment. Open that and find the external drive. Right click on it, select Change Drive Letter and set it back to the one in Hoster. There is no way I know of to make an external drive have a permanent letter.
