Pull them up in the Edit Songs in Hoster then change something like Genre, then change it back and apply. This should resave the header.
I am not sure why you would want to convert them to MP3+G as the KMA is already compressed.

Thanks ddouglass for your input. I’ll try it.
We are offering karaoke since 1995. I love Hoster; it’s the best karaoke software I know.
It turns out that our DJ wants to try mp3+g on his DJ software in order to “speed-up” crowded nights. His claims he would manipulate these files, as he normally does with audio files, mixing them up by genre. This way we’d save up time allowing more clients to sing.
I’m still not quite sure about the idea… I’m aware of all odds… First of all, the imminent risk of all your media. Then, in order to implement this, you’d have to sort the playlist by bpm (altering your normal rotation)… We are not sure how our clients will respond to this medley-style, or to the rotation issue... We’ll see.
