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..

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.

Sounds like your computer is shutting down the link to the database. I would suspect it is set to put the hard drive to sleep when not in use for a period of time. This is normal specially for laptops to conserve battery power. Check your power settings and see what they are set to for the hard drive. I would shutdown Hoster when band starts and re-open it after, then you shouldn't see this.
