Songs that have been indexed not showing up

[kjk04]

Greetings Roy,
No used batch with folder. Wouldn't work at all. Then used single, songs in folder came up. Select all and program tells me they are found and entered. Wrong, they are not there. Tried all the methods suggested to no avail. I am importing them as KMH files. the extra kmh file is not there. Using Win Explorer the KMH files don't show on any of the songs.
Double clicking on the search field of songs. The KMH file is shown however the song cannot be found on the hard drive. So it seems that the initial loading of the songs, especially the ones that I copied from my other drive never got loaded.

Also Roy, I have the 5.40 version previous to the latest and greatest and have had it shut off in the middle of a random song. There was something running in the background. Funny though, the 5.3 version that I have been running for over a year never had these problems. Just trying to get it to recognize a different drive was the major problem.

When you say "the KMH file does not show on any of the songs" are you referring to the ones that won't import or all of the songs ?
If you are not seeing any, do you have the folder options tick box ticked to hide Extensions for known file types ?

It sounds to me like a Database problem, as if your database already contains these files so wont let you re import them.
When you copied these files from your other drive, does the file path match the previous one. Example: If the drive you copied from was E drive does the new drive show as E ?
Or did you copy from an internal C drive to an external drive ?
Or have you just changed to a different computer and just copied your songs.mdb to the other computer ?

These are all new files that I was trying to add.
In the beginning I copied from external drive that was being used by MTU 5.40.1(?) on another computer to an internal drive on new computer with the latest upgrade. Will have to check the file extension box when I get home tonight.
The new files that I was trying to add were never attached to a Hoster program.

I am also having the problem of search not finding any videos. They were imported several versions of Hoster back and always worked. Now they show up in new songbook and will play if the book ID is entered. I tried deleted all of them and reloaded. Same thing. Was running the latest Hoster but went back to 5.40.01 to try. No luck running windows 10 64 bit

As you say they play when you enter Book Id, do you have the search filter options window on view ? in that you have to select the video button else it will skip videos.
If your not seeing the window below the search field with all the filter options right click the search button.
I attach a screen shot showing the extra search options.
