Newbie - converting songs

[trelynda]

I ran the scan and convert last night and had several convert and several have errors. Wasnt sure if I needed the lame file so I installed that just now. Converting from kma to ZIP CDG-mp3. Now when I go to the KMA file that i selected last night no kmas show. Does that mean it already converted all it could? Why aren't the kma's showing up? Thanks

If you pressed the button to delete original then that's what it has done.
A bit late now but I usually don't select that button and only delete them when I know they converted OK.

After it's finished it creates a log file with all the converted files in and also a log file with any bad files in.

If you open the bad files log and compare it with the converted files log, I should think that if the same files that appeared in the bad files log are in the converted files log then they have been converted.

Another test would be to try playing one of the titles from the bad files log.

I did not select to delete. The KMA files are all in the folder. But I don't think all of them went thru the conversion process but when I select the KMA folder nothing shows in song converter list. Make sense?

My original KMA file is not empty it just doesn't show any songs in the song converter when I select the folder. I wasn't sure if it kept track of what it converted and maybe didn't load them because the process had run?

Right gotcha now, I misunderstood what you were saying

The .kma's should still show up after the conversion.

In the top left hand payne underneath Brows selection is a window "2 format" with a drop down arrow. Each time you open Songverter that reverts back to "< Select>"
Use the drop down from that window to re select "kma karaoke files" it should then rescan that folder and re-list them all.

So I should check which songs were listed in your Bad file log then just select those to try again.

ok yes they showed up again, but now as it scans I get an error message that stops it, perimator is incorrect.
