Converted files causing hoster not to respond

Has anyone had any problems with nikkodo cdg kma files playing correctly on the new 4.05?
I used the new 4.05 for the first time on the job last night.
And right away I noticed that any of my sav series or co series on nikkodo cdgs brand kma's were all garbeled up on the initial song title but once the song continued to the words they popped up fine and sounded fine but when the song ended the ending titles were all garbeled up again.
I tried the same thing on 3.40 and all the other versions of hoster and no problems.
These are kma files that i have been using every since I've been using hoster and never had a problem until 4.05.
I even did a song database rebuild but it didn't help.
I have a message in to bryan at mtu but I thought i would see if anyone else had a problem like this.
And it only occurs on the nikkodo brand not any others like soundchoice or chartbuster or pop hits etc.

Hey Doug,
What you are seeing is a known bug. If it freaks your singers out seeing garbage instead of what they normally see, use 3.40 to run these tracks.

4.05 and 3.40 will run side by side. The way I would do it is put a link to 3.40 on my desktop. Run the show with 4.05. When I see one of the trouble tracks is coming up, I'd open 3.40, park (minimize) 4.05 (after it stoped) and run the track in 3.40 then switch back to 4.05.

I have never had to use 3.40 so you may want to work with the two at the house to get a good feel of how they work together. I do know they run side by side, I tested that when 3.40 was added.

Where do you do your shows in J-ville? I'll swing up if I get a free weekend.

would this known bug be fixed on 4.06..

[Doug Bracey]

Thanks Jim I tried running both of them and it works o.k.
I will put up with this until they get a fix for this bug but Thanks again Jim.
It sounds like you're pretty much of a guru on Hoster.
I have been using it for about 3.5 yrs now and really love it and haven't had many problems at all until 4.05

Doug,
It's vista.

Thank you for your nice words. I'm just a guy who is honored to be a pro entertainer. I too have used Hoster for years and just want to help others who are of like mind.

(I think we're in the wrong thread here Doug.)

Admin or Beta Testers,

Is this "known bug" going to be addressed in 4.06?

I seem to have more Nikkodo/Sav Series requests than I thought!!!
