Bad Discs?

[bobcox- with the Lord]

could you tell us the disc numbers.
and what version of hoster.

[Steve Bauer]

Bob, I did list the version and disc numbers a couple of posts ago.

Debbie, you may want to explore playing "in between" music from Hoster.....works real good!

[Debbi]

Maybe Bobcat was asking which of my Sound Choice disc's didn't work (I'm not sure)? Anyways, if you were...they are # 8710, 8713 & 8732.
As far as the in-between music, I've never upgraded to the 4's as I had so many complications with my first Vista and the Hoster, I've stayed safe with the 3.21 in my new computer. A few friends have switched over and they don't like how the face was re-arranged and things were labeled differently. Anyways...at some point I will switch over.
Question...How do you get the in-between music from the Hoster program? Thank you!

SC Mediacloq'd 8700-8735 & a few scattered discs before they pulled it & re-released the discs without it. This would be the reason you can't import these discs. If they are still available (and I just checked & only 8713 is available) you should be able to exchange the disc for the cost of shipping - usually $5.99. You do need to call them first to get an RA code - or at least you do for damaged discs.

Debbi, First, I use 4.6......not sure what version the audio was added. I click on "audio" at the top right of the songlist page. Then I choose music files from my jukebox file on drive C (you can use an external drive if you want). When you open the music file, it imports it onto your Hoster songlist page as an "audio only" file that you can play. I guess you can put as many as you want onto the list You can click and drag the audio files and place them between karaoke performances where you need them. I started at 4.04 and am acustomed to looking at this page. Had some problems with 4.5 but 4.6 I really like so far. A lot of great people here will help you if you have problems. I think you will like the ability to play everything from one page!

Look in the inside ring of those disks and see if it has mediacloq written there. I am pretty sure this is the problem. Some drives are able to get around this and some are not.
Version 4.06 has the capability of importing Audio files and adding them to your database. That is how you get your audio songs to play through Hoster.
The early versions of 4.xx Hoster did have a lot of bugs in them, but most people using XP or Vista are not having problems now with 4.06. And 4.10 will be out early 2009 with additional features that were asked for.

Debbie,
I have SC8732 mine is multi session, but is not mediacloq.

Hey....Thanks to all of you for your input, I really appreciate it!
I actually have doubles of the ones that won't copy and the
duplicates won't copy, either....and I believe I did contact
Sound Choice about it...and I can't remember now what they
told me, but I never exchanged it, so I think maybe they didn't
have them...it's been a while and I had so much aggrivation
with the whole Vista 'thing' that I can't even remember much
about that...I just solved it, by buying the one-space karaoke
player! When I finally get around to upgrading to the 4.6, then
I'm hoping they will import! I'm dragging my feet, though, because
I'm not ready for 'change' in my Karaoke! I've finally (after one whole
year) got to a point of things working pretty well...So I'm not anxious
about switching just yet!
Hey....HAPPY NEW YEAR, Everyone!!!!!!

Hey Debbie,
I paid to have a media clogged disc replaced by sound choice and they sent me ANOTHER MEDIA CLOGGED DISC! You made the right decision not to deal with then on this point IMHO.
