Re: Windows 8
Every time you open Hoster, you see the screen that states you need to turn off UAC. Other than that, on the beta version I ran it on, it worked. I will be building up a Windows 8 system later in the week, and testing again. At the moment I do not have one to test on.

Re: Windows 8
I have win 8 and have some issues that are weird, songs get more out of sync as they play usually ending up 1 to 2 sec out of sync by end of song playback. Solution is indeterminate at this time, All songs are on a local drive so no UAC problems that I know of. I am using an SSD drive for main operation. HDD's as secondaries. Win8 does not have a basic theme to choose from for visualization changes. Plz let me know when solutions are found, TY

Installed 508.11 on Windows 8. Other than the UAC issue (mentioned above), everything seems ok.

That UAC is a pain in the proverbial

Re: Windows 8
Yes, I get the UAC message too. However, I installed Auslogics Boostspeed and Performed System tweaks on System Security\UAC and checked the box for DISABLE User Account Control and that fixed the issue.
See screen shot of Auslogics Boostspeed System Tweak screen below Not sure If Windows 8 is really turning it off or if control is in a new place, hopefully MTU can determine the issue and fix it.

I don't know why you should get the overwrite existing files issue but they have been working on some rebuild database issues.

Re: Windows 8
Seawolf,
I am going to shoot you an email with the link to the latest Beta to let you test. I have tried this on my Windows 8 systems, and not run into the same issues as yourself, but this does not mean they are not there.

Re: Windows 8
This may be random, but I experienced random shut downs during singers, skipping background music, and lyric screen not refreshing on my display (singer's display worked fine.) I discovered all my problems were resolved by running my HDMI through a splitter. I was able to reproduce the problems by connecting HDMI directly from laptop to TV and resolve them by using a splitter. I have no idea why it works, but it does.

Re: Windows 8
I've used 3ft, 6ft, 10ft and 50ft HDMI cables. Same result. I just ordered 2 HDMI splitters online so I always carry a spare and all is good. I just mentioned it in case someone else experiences the same issue. It took a lot of trial and error to figure it out and hopefully I can save someone else the effort.

Re: Windows 8
I've been having problems with hoster shutting down right from the begining with Windows 8.
I'm using Hoster 4.32. When I first started Hoster a sign came up and said I did not have enough RAM. I dismissed the sign and check the box to not show it again. Toshiba Qosmio 12 gb of ram 450 gb hard drive free space Using and external hd 3tb and 1.2 tb free I did all the recommeneded changes and computer updates. I even found a resource to fix the UAC problem with regedit. When the songs I use are on the external hard drive, Hoster crashes. Those that I use that are stored on the computer keep playing without crashing. Once Hoster gets to a external hard drive stored songs, crash. All my songs are zip format and work fine from the computer hard drive. And work fine from the Windows 7 machine. I tried swapping to a smaller external hard drive that I use for my Windows 7 machine and it still crashes when the songs are on the external hard drive. When I use my Windows 7 with an external hard drive, like others mentioned, when that one crashes, somehow the "Performance Setting" got changed back to a default setting. I change that back to the recommeneded setting and things run smoothly again. My wife is giving the evil eye for spending the money on a new computer that crashes. I can't send it back, help! * Upon further research; I find that the creashes happen at the end of the song and while in auto play. The songs were imported from zip to kmh files. Those files are the ones that cause the crash. I brought songs into the play list using the K-oke button at the top and they are on the external hard drive. But they keep playing as I can see without crashing. Last edited by nfountai; March 10th, 2013 at 01:39 AM. |

Re: Windows 8
After my last post I downloaded the newest version of Hoster Demo.
I could not replicate the same issue as the demo only allows a 90 second play. As long as I pick a song with the K-oke button the songs play fine. But if I use my search and data base I created, Hoster shuts down after playing a song. I installed Hoster upgrade to 4.32 and made it compatible with XP, unistalled and re installed with compatible with Windows 7. |
