1. I am unable to listen to the audio track of a song that is selected in the search window. I have TWO sound cards; one assigned to the main play list and the other to search audio card. Both sound cards are working.

I click the search button on the main hoster play/control screen, this opens the search song database screen shown on page 10 of the manual (bottom half of page). I highlight the buttons title, artist, karaoke and type in a search string e.g. bon jovi. When I press enter or hit tab I get a list of matching songs that show up in the results list. So far all good. If I highlight ANY one song then click the preview play button to listen to the song via the second sound card I get the error 'cannot open zip file' in a popup window. If I click add to add the song to the main playlist I can return to the main control screen and play that same song with no problem. The song files are all CDG and MP3 file pairs zipped as .zip files. Note I do not used brand or book id's. These are system defaulted to unknown and XYZ... etc. Any ideas?

Yesterday we found and fixed a bug that prevented ZIP files from preview playing in the Search dialog. It is in Hoster 5.02, which we expect to begin beta testing today.
