The .kma files are files containing your ripped CD+G files.
Hoster writes a small file for Zips, mp3 and video files with a .kmh extension, this small file is just a header for Hoster to be able to store it's location and all the setting you choose for that file, Hoster uses the information in the header to load the file it is referring too. You must have both files in the same folder.

So yes if you have imported them then they are added to the database and searchable.

I agree on the import but that coverts them to kma files. I was wondering about just leaving them as they are and searching what ever format they are in.

The search won't work unless you import them. Zips, Video ,MP3, WMA, MP3G and WMAG Stay in their original folders Hoster doesn't convert them, It just adds a very small Header file into the same folder with the KMH extension not a KMA. Your original files are not moved or altered so that you can still access them easily in any other programs.

As Roy said they are left in the original format and the additional 256 byte KMH file is added to the folder where the original is. Essentially it is doing exactly what you want. The original file is still there and Hoster does use that file to play. The KMH is what tells Hoster the information required for it to be added to the database that you search with.

same msg. came up again, i played last night till 4am,together with a band to a full house of a 150 people, and some are still waiting at the door to get in , while the band was setting up, i did a sound check, played a few songs everything played fine, when the band stopped playing their first set, i started ( just me as a solo performer, no other singers ) but when i clicked on my first song, i got the same error msg. as before, not in song database...not a big deal, i closed and opened Hoster and it went fine, just wondering why this error comes up in random, when it played w/o a problem on sound checked...but anyway everything went great, didnt have any problem, had BA, singers , search screen and itunes( minimize) opened and didnt have any single problem..

Billy did you leave all of that setup and open while the band played?

no, just had Hoster opened, no songs on the playlist, i didnt open the rest till i started, closed when the band started the 2nd set, and opened the rest and itunes at the very end of the show for some people that wanted to sing and dance.
