Is there an explanation why the same songs keep disappearing?

What specific CDs are you talking about. I have a whole closet full of CDGs to draw from and will try to replicate your issue. Now that you made the problem interesting, I will take the time to investigate and see if I can come up with a solution or at least a workaround. If not, I may be able to find something in common between us that will help narrow it down.

It happens with different brands. They are the regular cd+g's that you buy at any store. They are not multiplex or have any security. I recall that one of the is from a latin producer that is called discosjade.com. Another one is from Soundchoice. It happens with the same songs so it is not a random bug.

Which one? I have every SC disk ever produced and will try it to see if I can make it not work.

Soundchoice Spotlight SC 8951

The song that keeps disappearing is the track 12
Makin' It by David Naughton

Since it is a classic disco song I have it requested all the time and have to use the one from Legends Series that is inferior. I put them both in the playlist in case that SC doesn't work.

I've seen some posts suggesting there might be cases where Hoster is trying to access an old songs.mdb, which might be part of the problem. It might be worthwile to do a search for songs.mdb. and delete any you find EXCEPT the one at C/MTU/Hoster.
The location C/program files/Micro Technology Unlimited/Hoster/Databases is where you are most likely to find an old one.

Did not had that file under the old Hoster directory

So I still don't know what's happening

I just used my main external hard drive with Hoster 3.21 that is installed on another computer and can not find the file either. This never happened to me before 4. Perhaps, Hoster 4 may have a bug that corrupts my KMA's???

I can see the file but Hoster 3 or 4 can not find it
