I moved this to the Hoster Help Forum where it belongs.

If you edited the filenames BEFORE importing them as KMA files, that won't cause any problems.

If you used Hoster's Edit Songs... command (Tools menu) AFTER you imported as KMA files... AND... ran the Build Songs Database (Tools menu) after that, the bug would convert your HDZIP KMA files to CDCDG KMA file TYPEs, and they will show ERROR Status when you try to play these songs.

If you have not used Edit Songs... command, or Build Songs Database command, then your ERRORs are not from the bug. The only thing we are aware of that causes a HDZIP KMA files to error out when played is if they are compressed with a program that uses MAX Compression. This is a new, unsupported (i.e. no unzip for it is available in public domain) compression and Hoster can't unzip it. There are some Threads in the Hoster Help Forum how to fix these, versus deleting them. If you don't have the original CDG disc to import from, you MUST fix the zip compression, and the Threads here can tell you how to do that.
