Converting from another software manuf to you?

[nreel]

Get Winrar 3.42

This program has, in the TOOLS Menu, a CONVERT ARCHIVES option.

Upon opening the CONVERT ARCHIVES Window, select the COMPRESSION Button.

This will open a SET DEFAULT COMPRESSION OPTION Window. Under the GENERAL Tab, you will see ARCHIVE FORMAT with two choices that are RAR and ZIP. Click the Radio button for ZIP (you don't want to convert all your ZIPs to RARs). Click OK and this will take you back to the CONVERT ARCHIVES Window.

Now, you can select a DRIVE or a FOLDER or an individual File to convert.

With the above settings, you will not alter the functionality of your ZIPs. But, now, they will all Play in Hoster.

I think it took about 6 hours to Convert all my ZIPs. But try a few and see how you like it.

Occasionally, during the conversion process, Winrar will FLAG a few ZIPs that it cannot Convert. In this case, unzip the FLAGGED ZIPs and use WINRAR to ZIP them. Again, be sure to select the ZIP format and not RAR when adding files for archiving. Also, it is best to use a separate Folder for these FLAGGED ZIPs and use WINRAR on them one PAIR at a time.

This means that you can still use Mp3toolz 3.0...I hate 4.0...to compress and rename the files within and then, just add an extra step of using Winrar to Convert.
