Putting the Pioneer Laser disks into Hoster?

[kenng]

I did a search, but did not come up with what has probably been asked and answered many times. I want to put my entire 12" and 8" Pioneer karaoke laser disc collection into Hoster if possible - They are getting old and I do not want to carry them around, but I still love the graphics.

How do I get them into the Hoster hard drive? Is there a way to save these old masters? I would appreciate any help in this matter.

Thank you,

Kenng

You would need a program to convert them to a usable Hoster format, because Hoster can't read them. They would need to be converted to something like a VCD or AVI file.

We are working on the hardware/software to digitize your LD tracks to the hard drive as video files.

Hoster 4.000 already has the means to "import" video files as HDVID KMA files indexed in the Songs Database.

We are working with a new customer right now to select the compression quality so we know how much hard drive will be needed. We now offer 500GB and soon a 1TB drive.

We hope to have something ready during April.

I was referring to an optional video/audio capture hardware and software to digitize the Laser Disc tracks as video files, then convert them to KMA files in the Songs Database.

Yes.

We're testing Beta 17 right now. We expect Beta 18 next week, then Beta 19 the following week. Hopefully 19 is the last major coding release. Target release is April 30, but that is NOT, repeat NOT a promise. If you know MTU, we don't let it out until it is ready.
