Do you have a computer that you could set up Hoster 5.02 on and copy all his files over to it so we can continue working on this during the week? You should be able to use the second copy of his license to do this if it hasn't been used.
I am almost to the point of making a trip up to where you are as we are not that far apart. I am about 75 miles north of Houston.

The bar has a main PC and a laptop that they use as a backup in case one system goes down (happened once). I've installed Hoster on the main PC and I think I installed it on the laptop, but I could get the laptop when I drop off the PC today and remove the license.

I was planning on making a copy of the music to fix here then copy it back to the HDD of the PC and the Backup Laptop, that way all the files are the same.

I don't know if they are willing to pay me to fix the files, but there are a lot that need fixing just for the Artist/Title switch.

I'm still importing and will report back.

A couple of other things that I noticed, Hoster will kick out files that have a tilde over a letter, like Buble vs Bublẽ. The later will get kicked out.

Also, if you have an extra space before the dash as in SC8000-01 - Artist - Title, after the 01 are two spaces, this gets kicked out

Also, if you are copying files and accidentally copy a zip folder into another zip file, this file will get kicked out (found several of those).
