Hoster 4.02 problems

[slingshot]

I loaded the new 4.02 today and still having some of the same problems and more since the files have been converted. Still locking up on cue and lyrics behind music. Had to rebuild data base the second time I opened hoster because it said file was not there. Went back to 3.40 and it want play some of the songs the it did play before. I thought these problems were solved but seams to have more. I need a quick fix fast or I can't do shows.

These problems were solved for most of us. In most cases it turns out to be something not up-to-date or not working correctly on the individual computer.
When 4.02 ran the conversion did you get any error messages for bad zip files? Is it the converted files that won't play? Are they listed in the playlist as HDMP3 or HDZIP?

Please answer Dales questions to help MTU.

Make a shortcut to this link and put it on your desktop:

C:\Program Files\Micro Tecnologies Ulimited\Hoster\Hoster34.exe

This is Hoster 3.40, a copy of Hoster 3.321 that runs on Hoster 4's data. It is included with Hoster 4.XX If Hoster 4 gives you fits, just click on the shortcut to open 3.40 and carry on. They will run side by side.

I hope this helps.

I have all updates for XP so that shouldn't have been the problem. All files were converted with no errors.
I messed with it for 2 hours at a show last night and it finally started working right. Checked it this morning and it still seems to be ok. Still don't understand why I had to rebuild the data base when the files were there when I first down loaded the 4.02 and it played them when it first opened. I guess I'll see what happens at tonights show. I pray there is know problems because it looks bad when you can't get your show started.

Well I guess I shouldn't have said anything. Checked it again to make sure all was good and it locked up right to start with. Shut it down and restarted and it did it again. Can't have this at tonights show. What can be done?

Try the 3.4 and if it works ok (should) then use it for your show tonight.

3.4 seems to be ok for now. I don't know how many songs it will play because last night I was getting an error on some of the songs and it wouldn't play them. Don't know why it was doing that when it did fine before.

Do not use an old playlist for now. Bring up a new playlist and put your selection on that and play your song and see what happen.
