Importing .CDG Files

[TimResar]

I have been patiently waiting for the import function to easily allow me to import my .CDG library. I spent two years importing them and I don't want to do it over. I don't care about the original disk numbers as I have assigned them sequential numbers for my own book and my file names reference those numbers.

I was pleased to see the new version allows me to specify field names and deliniators, but it is all useless if it can't accept my disk ID's as valid. I don't want to add my Disk ID's into MTU's library, just into my own.

Am I missing something? This seems like the most obvious and fundamental functionality necessary to allow many MTU customers to begin using Hoster. I have thousands of songs in .CDG format that need converting, and I don't want to reload them. I should be able to point Hoster at my current library, define the field names and deliniators of my file naming convention, and it should convert them all without me needing to do anything else. If I'm missing something, please let me know.

Thanks

I moved this to the Hoster Help Forum.

Hoster's Songs Database REQUIRES 5 fields:

1. Brand
2. DiscID
3. Track#
4. Song Title
5. Artist

If any of the 5 items above are missing, then some part of Hoster won't function correctly... Add Tracks by BookID or by Brand-DiscID or by Search... or Song Book.

In 3.109, we are providing a way to automatically assign SOMETHING... basically meaningless... but it will fulfill our error checking to allow importing.

We are trying to allow unattended importing. However, if there are errors while importing a track, we must document them in a separate file that you can go back and review why they didn't import.

I think 3.109 will solve your problem. 3.108 was build on the premise that the DiscID and Track# were REQUIRED.... 3.109 does not require them.

We hope to release it this month....
