Arrow still having problems

Bryan... I got your email about the registration number being bad. I retried installing Hoster with the reg number you sent me, and it still tells me that the floppy doesn't match the number of the hoster program. I'm getting near wit's end with this problem. Surely there's something I can do to get my laptop running. I need it bad!
Thanks... corson

I'm embarrassed

I really fill silly asking this question, but MTU tells me that they do not send manuels with the computers that they sell, that I can get the manuel from help in the Hoster progam, that only gives information pertaining to Hoster and I don't know how to hook up my computer to my mixing board. This unit does not have av\rca jacks, that I'm familiar with and I was told by Radio Shack that there is no adapter available. How do you get your audio from your computers to your amplifiers?

You need a cable to run from your sound card out to one of the channels on your mixer. If you mixer is stereo the there is an adapter at Radio Shack that has one male plug on one end and 2 female plugs on the other. I don't recall what it's called. Just tell them your trying to run from a computer sound card to a mixer and they will fix you up.

From the mixer you would run to the amp, assuming you don't have a powered mixer.

And what does everything from post #3 on down have to do with the original post by CORSON?

Should have been a new thread.

A possible cause can be typing in the reg. code. To avoid errors, use copy/paste to enter the reg. code in.

PS

Singer's window?

Thanks for the info.
Okay, got the adaptor, have sound. Now, I can't get the singer's names to the second monitor. Got the singer's names with the song title on the right, clicked the SND but still, just the graphics and no singer's names on the second monitor. What am I doing wrong?

Confused

How can I move the lyrics on a tv monitor? Isn't the singers names suppose to show up on a second monitor as well? So far, I have only been able to see them on my PC monitor.
Thanks, Jack.

Jack,
You need to have fitted a dual display card like the Radeon or GForce, if not you wont be able to display to TV. If you have one fitted it has to be enabled. Right click anywhere on your decktop, select properties, settings and check the box, Extend My Windows Desktop On ToThis Monitor. then ok. that should do the trick.

Still nothing

Thank you so much for your suggestionThis PC is from MTU and I assume that it has everything already installed.
I did check the box to include the second monitor, but it still just sends the lyrics without the singers names.

Singer's names

I have five monitors at my club that I send the graphics to and I was hoping that I would be able to use one of these monitors for the singer's names. This was an important feature that I thought Hoster provided. Am I wrong?

you can only send them to all the external monitors, not just one.

Jack,

Like Beavis said, the next singer screen may be "hiding" behind the singer's lyrics screen, or it may need to be placed in position.

Put your mouse pointer on the lyrics screen and double click it to unlock it.

You should now be able to go up to the top of the screen until you see a double arrow, click on it and drag the top of the lyrics screen down, say 2/3 of the way down.

If you see the next singer's screen, re-size it to fit across the top of the tv monitor.

If you don't see the next singer's screen on the t.v. then click on it on your pc monitor and drag it over the the tv. You can now grab the edges and size it across the top of the tv screen. Then grab the top of the lyrics screen and pull it back up to just below the next singer's screen.

Double click both screens to lock them in place.

George

HD monitor

Thanks George,
I did what you said to do with no avail. Do you think that the monitor being an LCD, HD might be why it's not showing the names? I changed the screen size from 16:9 to 4:3. Still no change.

Jack,
Have you double clicked on the button on the hoster screen SND, that enables the singers list. Just a thought.
If your seeing the lyrics screen you should see the singers list screen.

Yes, I did this and the SND button turns red and the names disappear. Still no names. But thanks for the suggestion.

Hoster

You know, I guess I just like to spend money. I already had been operating my karaoke out of CAVS JB-99 and now JB-199, but I was impressed with Hoster's program being able to have the singer's names on the monitors. So now I can't seem to do the one thing that I paid all this money for. I know that it has to be my fault, because no one else seems to be having this problem.
I do wan't to say that I very much appreciate all the intrest in trying to help me.

Make sure the SND Button is GREEN. If not, Click it until it turns, and STAYS GREEN.

You can't just CLICK on the SND (Singer's Name Display) and DRAG it...you have to:

1. Assuming the SND is NOW displaying on your KJ Monitor, place your MOUSE INSIDE the SND window.
2. Click and H O L D your L E F T MOUSE Button CONTINIOUSLY.
3. While HOLDING YOUR L E F T Mouse Button CONTINIOUSLY, DRAG your MOUSE to the RIGHT until it moves to your SINGER'S monitor.
4. R E L E A S E the L E F T Mouse Button.

Now resize the SND so that it displays how you want it to display.
