Importing Zip files

[marklwood]

Way back when, Hoster removed the normalize function. I have since done this with my files:
Rip CDs to MP3+Cdg in a zip file
Run MP3 Gain to normalize the volume
I store the files in sub folders by Manufacturer
Import in to Hoster

I have been holding off importing since 4.0 was announced, but continued to rip CDs and fix the volume levels. Now I need to import 1300 zips and am having trouble. I go to import hard drive files, select zip and NADA. After that, when I close Hoster, I get an error from Windows about not closing properly, do you want to report to MS. Anyone else having the same issue?

I did get it to work once by going to the sub folder and selecting from there. I imported only one CD to test and haven't been able to get that far again even by repeating the previous actions.

Before you ask, yes I have done all updates.


Edit: While I was typing this question I had just hit the ZIP button and came to my other comp to type this message. It takes a LOOOOONG time, but they do eventually come up. For later reference, I am running a Core 2 Duo 2.2ghz with 3gb ram. Files I was importing were stored on a 2TB DROBO connected by USB. The size of the drive, or the USB may have been the issue.

Or the number of folders and files (1300) could have slowed it down especially when dealing with sub-folders.
