I don't know if I am interpretting this wrong or not but it seems the originator of this thread is asking about sharing songfiles between computers- my understanding of the hoster program is that the songs loaded onto one computer are not transferable to a second as that would allow a karaoke hosting company to utilize one set of discs in multiple machines which is a violation of copyright laws if I understand them at all. From what I understand one original disc- one copy with the original disc stored somewhere so it can't used in another system. Please MTUSUPPORT correct me if I am wrong. but I don't think I am as I have a buddy of mine who went through the ASCAP inspection to make sure he wasn't using more than one copy in all his systems.
ADMIN NOTE: Hoster does not prevent recording songs under one Hoster and copying those songs to another disc. We made the decision not to play Karaoke Kops as everyone else in the world seems to try to be doing that. Yes, it is illegal to run more shows at the same time than you have disc copies. Thus, you should always make sure you have the same number of discs as copies of Hoster running their imported songs.
MikeD is talking about (FYI impeging = importing) importing half a disc set on one computer with Hoster, and the other half on a second. Then copying the songs from both to the alternate discs. THIS WILL WORK!!! All it takes is spend about 10 seconds to say the first import person uses BookID from 1 to 1000 and the second person use 1001 to 2000 (or anything but 1 to 1000!!!). Then, when you run the "Rebuild Song Database" function it will locate all .kma files and there will not be any duplicate BookIDs.
This is not a bug, but a user request that we could make a bit more automated, but right now is not worth the time investment. It only takes a user 10 seconds to prevent this problem. Sorry we did not think of this earlier, but you guys are very creative!!!
