Smile Importing CDG+mp3 files from hard drive

Hi Everyone. Greetings from New Zealand.

Firstly, thank you MTU for this awesome program Hoster. I've been running Karaoke full time now for nearly 15yrs, but only with Hoster for the last 3yrs. What a God send!! Thank you guys!

When I started backing up all my disc's prior to Hoster, I was using a software program called CDRwin. It saved my files as .bin. I kept every disc in its own folder. Disc 01, Disc 02 etc etc

I saw a friend using WinAmp but I had to convert my .bin files to CDG+mp3 first. I kept them all in their individual Disc folders. Reason being, all my books were under the disc number format.

Well, I had renamed every file according to its numbered disc folder as follows:
Eg: Folder Disc 001:

Disc/Trk Title Artist

01 - 01 Hot hot hot - Buster Poindexter.cdg
01 - 01 Hot hot hot - Buster Poindexter.mp3
01 - 02 I'm so excited - The Pointer Sisters.cdg
01 - 02 I'm so excited - The Pointer Sisters.mp3
01 - 03 Strokin' - Clarence Carter.cdg
01 - 03 Strokin' - Clarence Carter.mp3
01 - 04 Come on ride the train - Quad City Dj's.cdg
01 - 04 Come on ride the train - Quad City Dj's.mp3

etc
etc As you can appreciate, this took so many many hrs to do.

I have tried to import these files into Hoster but without success. How I've been using hoster is loading the .mp3 file via the MP3G button, going to the particular folder and loading the song thru "Add MP3+G Song to SongList."

It works but man I would love to be able to search and load with Hoster the proper way.

Can anyone help me out here? I would appreciate your suggestions
