Transfer All Song Files To external Drive

[ddouglass]

Joe are they ZIP files or have they been converted to MP3+G type?
Edit Songs doesn't show what type they are but if you add one to the playlist then it will show the TYPE. It will be either HDZIP or HDMP3G.

If they are ZIP files your best bet would be to convert them to MP3+G. If you own Songverter it can do them in mass for you. The required space for them is slightly larger than what it is now, but will work faster too.

Yes, I meant to say to use "Songverter" (instead of MicroStudio) to convert. Although I always open MicroStudio first & go to Songverter from there...... thinking anyone who owns Songverter probably owns MS also

I found out why it didn't work, my external usb drive was not securely pluged in to the port.

Thanks Again,

Question

How do you find out which KMA files are HDZIP and which are MP3+G, I want to check all my files using Songverter program.


Thanks

I know you are fond of using Access. One of the fields in each record shows the TYPE of file.

Hi ddouglass

Thanks for the reply

Thank you, but access will only tell me what files are HDZIP, not convert them.

Will Songverter do this or can Hoster do this, what do I have to do to make this conversion process happen.

Any idea?

Thanks

Yes Songverter will convert them, but you will need to know which ones to convert because Songverter only knows they are KMA files, not what type they were when imported.

Thanks ddouglass

That's a lot of work to sort out in access then breakout the files and process through Songverter.

Can Hoster due this automatically?

What do I have to do to start this process within Hoster?


Thank You

Joe...
