You may have credit card statements but they don't itemize what songs that you purchased and cannot verify what you downloaded was not pirated music. Anyway you look at it, the songs you download cannot be verified, period. Since you're spending the dollars, why not just buy CDG's online so you have physical proof of the purchase along with the receipts?

i dont buy cdg's on line, i'd rather have the original disc, i only buy music on itunes,that way i just get the new releases and i dont have to buy the whole cd where you can only play 1 or 2 songs out of it.and i don't think they will carry pirated songs,

One thing about having the original CDG is if you were to decide to pack it all in, you can sell your collection legitimately and get a reasonable return, I don't think you can do that with downloaded tracks and be legal.

Ginamon,

Thanks for the Web Site information (Tricerasoft). I went there and downloaded an mp3+g song I need for tomorrow night. Very good and very easy...

I previously downloaded some songs from The Karaoke Channel (beautiful graphics) and they are in WMV format.

Does any one know how to get them into Hoster?

I have to load them through the Video button and cannot save them in a Singers file...

You import them through the Import from Hard Drive.

Dale,

I tried all nine buttons on the Import Hard Drive Files screen and none of them will let me import the WMV files that I have in a folder on my desktop...

Where do I go from here?

[Roy Dennis]

From the import hard drive files use the Kmh video tab, from the window that opens navigate to your folder with the video's in, at the bottom where it reads "File Types" click the drop down arrow and select all Files. You should then see your videos listed, now press select. The next part depends on the naming order of your files to be set correct then they should import, alternatively select the easy button.

Roy,

Thanks a lot! That worked... However, the button reads just "Video" vs. Kmh. But bottom line, IT WORKED! The key to it was selecting "all files." Thank you again...

That's what I love about the MTU forum, the help you can get here! Everyone is so willing to help.

Another question I have is, can you put songs from Hoster on a CD (make a CDG). I love to carry my own songs with me when I go out to sing, in case they're not available or the version I like is not available from the KJ. I hate having to carry a whole CDG for one song...
