Vista has taken much longer to get working. There are a few problems we are still ironing out, but we are getting down to the final release for testing.

Current target for release is Monday June 9th.

What version are you using? When and how is it locking up?

2.) I Will Be Doing A 50 Aniversary In A Couple Of Weeks And The Man As A Video Slide Show That He Wants Me To See If I Can Run It Through My Computer On Hoster So The Music Will Play As Well
1.) With 4.0 you can add (import) audio song files into it giving them BookIDs so all you have to do is select them and play. Can't be any simpler than that.
2.) What type of video file is it? Is the music imbedded in it? What program was it created with?

Smile Vista

I have Vista and I hate it only because I love Hoster so much and it has Vista problems. It is worth the wait to let MTU correct the problems. It's only a little over a week late.

Better to have it right than release on time and fix it after like Microsoft does.

Windows Media Player does not interfere with Hoster. You can also use Windows Explorer to view pictures from a disk, while playing Hoster.
If you have Vista, it has a new feature that makes it easy to run a slide show while playing music from "Hoster".
The main thing to consider is that you have an ample processor & plenty of RAM (depending on the number of pictures you want to show). When it locks up..... then you know you have run out of memory!!

Well said Skybird74 and SO true!!! If you don't have at least 1GB RAM, forget it on Vista. Personally I'd have 2GB minimum, but then I have no intentions of using Vista this year. I'm solid with XP and it works great.

For those of you who are thinking maybe you should go back to XP from Vista, I'd recommend it, and you better do it ASAP. Microsoft will REMOVE XP retail packages from the market June 18th.... you have 8 days from now to get it.

That's one reason we're working so hard to get Hoster behaving on Vista. What a bear... never in my 40 years as a product developer have I or my engineers ever had to deal with such a mess!

We hope Beta 35 that went out 30 minutes ago for testing will solve the Vista problems. Thirty-five beta versions!!!!!!!!!! Never before have we had that much testing on any development, and our testers are STILL NOT in seeing the same results. We take each report and nail the problem. We made some major breakthroughs today. Keep your fingers crossed!!!

just keeps getting better

I wish there was a way we could show our appreciation for all the hard work they do. I know we already pay for the product and to me that is about all I can do.( I am not doing near as many shows as before for vasrious reason that I hope to correct soon...) But everytime I think wow this cant get any better...im like wow they can do that?

GREAT JOB to ALL OF YOU at MTU...Thanks for all you do!!!!

ADMIN - Are you really "recommending" replacing Vista with XP? First of all, my new laptop came with Vista pre-installed. Plus it would be an extra cost, not counting all the hours in time. Do you really think this is necessary?????

they would run both versions incase 4.0 was having major problems on their system, they could instantly revert to 3.321 to keep the show rolling !
