Augh! Help! Reinstall of songs (Hoster version 3.321)

[madjim- with the Lord]

Hey Dave,
Are all of your KMA files in one folder? If not you have to select each folder that contains KMA files when you rebuild the dayabase.

(Thanks hwheeler43 for helping out, you snuck in on me. )

Yep, I selected all of the folders that have karaoke songs in them. I have both KMA and MP3g files. It built it - 15, 000 plus songs. It made a .txt file showing this:

.....it goes on and on and on like this.

Could this be the problem?

Do you not have to import your mp3g files into hoster for them to be converted into Kma files before the data base will pick them up? I think all the files must named kma. You can play mp3g using add track.

Dave,
When you rebuilt the database, Did you hit "Add" or "Rebuild"?

With Hoster closed go to C:\MTU\Hoster and delete the songs.mdb and the songs_backup.mdb then Rebuild (not Add) your database.

This should fix the Dupilcate Book Id issue.

Jim

[dave2851]

I clicked "ADD" folders...and "BUILD" database. I will try your suggestion right now.

[dave2851]

No luck. I deleted the files, did the rebuild. Still missing a ton of songs in my search.

And I get the duplicate file .txt file :

.....and so on and so on....

Now you need to run the Add and see if it will pick up the duplicate BookIDs and reassign them to another BookID for each disk.

[Singsation]

Are they your mp3g files that are missing?

[dave2851]

How do I run the ADD ?


And yes, it appears my MP3G one's are the ones that are missing.

That's what I was thinking.
