Question Question For VCD users only

My question is for anyone who uses Karaoke Videos and has installed 4.05.

I put 4.05 on my XP and it plays videos the same way as 4.04 did - they come up with the Vocals playing (so 3.4 is needed to turn off Vocals).

I put 4.03 on my Vista, and the Videos come up without the vocals playing (which is what is needed for singers to sing with) so 3.4 is not needed during a show to turn off the vocals.

1 question for Admin - Why do the different versions play videos differently?

This says to me that I should continue to run my Shows with 4.03 on Visata so that I can still play videos without having to revert to 3.4 to do so.

Like I said: on XP videos play with vocals; on Vista videos play without vocals. What system do you have 4.05 on?

By importing, if you mean how I transferred them to the HD from the Disk - I simply copied & pasted the files using Windows Explorer (some .dat & some .mpg). Also, they are on the same ext. drive that I keep my kmas on, so both XP & Vista read the same file when adding them to the Playlist. (It's beginning to look like a computer quirk)

Videos on XP - I do have SP3, but am still using WMP-9. Are you using WMP-11? (maybe that's the difference)

Hey Sky,
I'm sure Admin will answer you, this is what I know.

MTU is working on a way to make the MUX buttons work with video which should be in the next release. They are on it I promise you.

You do what you have to do until the MUX buttons are fixed. Sounds like Hoster 3.4 is doing it's job. (3.40 will be gone one day. )

I know you know I don't have any MUX videos, I just want to share what I know.

Thanks

Jim
