You would not have to keep the BIN files after importing into Hoster since you have the CDG disks.

Not on my show machine, nope. It's on the PC in my studio. I would have to download all songs, write the file, copy the files, transfer the files to my 3 externals, rewrite them, keep them, redirect to that file if i wanted to play a song from that file.. Much harder and time consuming said then done. ummm...nope not gonna happen.
George,
I want to assure you that what Dale has proposed here as a work around, will be a simple fix for what you wish to do ( And that comes from me, who is also leary about adding anything else to my show machine, due to the lack of dedicated video memory on the video card ). and save you about 2 months of further waiting for the update to be released! You have already become efficient with the other MTU software, KH Pro, Microstudio... that you have used to compile your custom CDG's, so I would think you wouldn't have any problems going thru the process that Dale has suggested... I think most of the time consuming steps, that you previously mentioned, will be not that time consuming at all...( Plus you're going to have to do most of those steps, if you wait for the next upgrade, or if you try what Dale suggests now) You and I have spent more time writing on this thread, that what time it will take to try Dale's fix, and I know if it's the inability to overcome the anxiety of changing/adding something to your show machine, that by setting a restore point, and having the backup of your files on your external hardrives, that you can go back to where you are now... Plus you have all of us forum reader's that will help you along the way... None better that Dale when it comes to helping... and if you are wanting MTU to set up your computer like the Geeek Squad... then you are going to be taking time away from their further development of the new features that the other KJ's would like to see them working on... So you see, we have an ulterior motive to help you from this forum... and also because of your patience and tenacity, your further posts will be fruitful and educational to many new users of the MTU software, and also some of the ol' timers as well.
