Did this just start after updating Hoster or some other program or after installing any new software. ?
In other words has something changed on your computer ?

Someone else who had this problem found that if you hold the mouse button on the header bar of the import screen it goes like lightning.
Might be worth a try.

WOW holding the mouse button makes it go like lightning. No I haven't installed any software or made any changes.
Thanks for the help.

I'm having slow importing using singers discs. It's taking from a minute to a minute and a half. Any suggestions? Also if I'm importing the singers clock stops durning that time, and if the song ends it won't change to the next song. I have to cancel the importing, to get things moving agian.

From my own exsperience 1 min is about average if importing while a song is playing. If I import only while the background audio is playing I find it greatly speeds it up to 30 seconds or less. So in the time it takes the next singer to be ready it's done.

Something is wrong with the software. I changed out my cd drive with a brand new one and it didn't make any difference.

Jon,

This is typical when loading singer's disc on the fly... all of your noted functions will hold during playing of song and downloading of singer's disc simultaneously... Some use a separate player to play singer's discs so the source computer is not over taxed, which has caused glitches and out of sync issues... Like Roy, I usually wait for the longer songs to load a singer's disc request... my computer takes a little under a minute to download a typical lengthed song!

Yea, I figured that out, it's just a pain. What really sucks is when someone gives you a not so good disc and your hoping it imports in time, and there's no clock to show you how much time is left for the singer...
