3. Right now there's no way I could know what went wrong with what file or what I could do to fix it, this is not good.

Responce

Not So I didn't know there was an error till the entire process completed and then I saw that General Posible error message which was NOT Specific to the Cause and Origin of the problem.

I posted the message in my previous post.

Responce

Do you mean Audio files?

Or do you mean that all the files I had in my HD before I purchased Hoster will have to be ripped again using Hoster because they won't work properly in the Hoster program?

Responce

I have no choice in this you are force to change it if it is defferent from what you need.

And if you don't it will write it to the file wrong. (Genre & Language)

You may need to experiance this Dale to fully understand.

5. If you are updating 100 files with 3 Languages and 10 Genres you are forced to process that operation 10 times to get through that batch where as if you had the option then the process is one operation to complete times 1000's of files it will get very time consuming.

Responce

Yes your right.

But that is NOT the problem, if your working on a Brand that has multiple Genre and Languages and you Don't Need To Change them you are force to because Genre And Language are set to Always Write To File Even If It's Wrong.

Answer

Well In Access....YES There Is

In Hoster.......You Are Correct

But that is not the issue here.

The issue is that the program doesn't allow you the option of not using the Genre & Language it ALWAYS WRITE EVEN IF IT's WRONG.


I hope this clears it up?
