Sam

Robster, Sam is absolutely accurate. We worked many long hours to keep the lyrics/graphics in sync with the audio with Remove Silence. When you "Edit Song", whatever you do "should" keep the lyrics and audio in sync.

I can only agree with Sam's assessment... changing when the song starts playing could only adjust the time to compute the lyrics/graphics... if your computer is borderline (CPU & RAM).

What processor type do you have, and what is its speed (GHz)?

How much system RAM do you have?

What video card/port do you have?

These answers may shed some light on what is happening.

Given you ARE seeing this difference on this song, we'd like to get to the bottom of WHY it is happening.

Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 2.0 GHz (processor bus 667 MHz) 2 MB processor cache.
3072 MB of RAM
Intel GMA X3100 256 MB
Storage (hard drive): 160 GB internal , 500 GB external USB2.0 Freecom Hard drive

Given that it is only the one track out of the hundreds i have tried i am more likely to think it is something with the one track than my computer

it is an imported mp3+g track

I agree with your thought as your computer is ideal for running Hoster.

If you want to zip it up and email support@mtu.com, we could take a look at it to see what is different.

QUESTION: Does it play correctly without Remove Silence processing?

[Robster]

yep it plays fine , thats why i altered the mark in point i thought if it plays ok at the full start , how much can i take off before it acts up ...I will zip it and send it tomorrow
