Question on Build Songs Database

When I download songs, they all go to C:\MTU|Hoster. Before, they would all go to F:\Songs (External HD). When I open Build Songs Database, in the Song source folders, I have F:\Songs.... At the bottom under Songs database destination folder, I have, C:\MTU\Hoster. How do I change the destination to F:\Songs, like it was before? Do I click the button, Build Songs Database?? It seems like things are changing around since MTU seems to keep changing it's location.

Thanks in advance!!

MTU has been moving folders around to accomodate Vista.

When you import your tracks into Hoster be sure to use the "Save To Folder" button to select the folder you want them imoprted to. In your case select F:\Songs.

I would go to the C:\MTU\Hoster folder an move all of the KMA's in that folder to your F:\Songs folder then rebuild your database (be sure to select the F:\Songs folder in the Build Database window). This should get you back on track.

I Hope This Helps!

Jim

I am having a problem while building the song database. Every once in awhile, a box opens and says.... Field 'Songs.mfgName' cannot be a zero length string (3315) Would you like to see help? When I click YES another box opens and says Cannot find the jeterr 40.chm file. Do you want to try and find this file yourself? I click NO, because I don't even know what it's talking about. I'm halfway to 25256 songs, and it's done this maybe 30 times. Any Ideas?

I've never seen that error message and I don't want to send you on a "wild goose chase". One of the other board members will get to your question soon I'm sure. We'll both learn something new!


Hang in there!

This was my falut, I shoud have told you to OPEN the songs folder. I had come in from a gig when I posted my response and wasn't editing myself well.

Please Forgive Me.

Madjim,
Sorry, but I'm confused???? In the Build Songs Database, right under the Add folder and the Delete folder, there is F:\Songs in the window. I also have a Songs in Explore... in F:\Songs (the external drive) where all my kma files are

You don't change the KMA destination folder in the database rebuild screen. That is only for telling Hoster where they are, not where you want them. If you want to change the destination for imported songs to go, you need to change that in the actual import screen. Nothing has changed in this department, it's always been this way.
