demo version?

Hoster won't import cdg tracks from the hard drive, which is what I gather you're trying to do from the wording of your post. You should have no problem importing from your cdg discs, if your drive is cdg compliant, and you have the discs..

who would store all their cdg files on there computer ???


it almost a gig per cdg.

I thought that was the whole point of Hoster to be able to store cdg's on the hard drive, instead of loading and working from discs. Clearly, I am misunderstanding something or missing a step.

[Beavis]

it is, they are stored as .kma files. the size of about an mp3.

not a .bin file

[Part On!]

if you have a minute (or a few), can you give me a brief summary as to what happens from the time you put the cdg in to cdrom, then, making it a kma file? why are my cdg's not turning into kma files in order for me to import them into hoster demo? I know I'm a pain in the butt.....please help....

Hi Part On,

Hoster is designed to be a stand alone system which means you need to import from the Hoster Program. Previously downloaded cdg's are not eligible for use on the Hoster program at this time. It is to my knowledge that it is intended to be added in the future. I assure you as an avid user of Hoster that it will fit your needs. As bevis was saying it saves you files to harddrive as a .kma file. The way that Hoster has the program set up they are maximizing your harddrive space by compressing the cdg file just enough that it doesn't lower the quality of your sound.
Believe me I've been here for a long time with Hoster being developed and I can truly say now that it is worth the money. Heck I bought back when it was $500.
Compare:

CDG player worth using---maybe a referb $250-$500
Hoster---$You get the picture

Good Luck,

Tim

Here's the instructions:

Click on the import selection at the top of Hoster. You will see a box. Insert your original CDG into your drive that will read CDG's. Click on "Read CD Tracks". Now choose what cdg it is from the database feature. If chosen correctly this should fill in the CDG titles and artists. Click on the tracks that you want to import and then click on import tracks. This automatically adds this track to Hoster playlist and database. That simple. Just do one song off of your list for now so that you can see what it's doing.

If you have any more problems let me know. It's early for me.

As Tnrsound stated, did you get it to work?
