This is great. I started running mine and it was going to take over two days. I had a gig that evening and had to cancel it. Slow system..... I am realizing that I might need to get a new laptop soon.

I have two weeks before my next gig. I have time to run it now.

Great job on Hoster MTU!!!!!!!

If you can identify what is causing the crash and post it here, we'll all try to duplicate the problem. However, it may be the computer isn't powerful enough.

Please post your computer specs so we can understand what you have: Windows type and SR#, processor type and speed, and System RAM, Video RAM (is it shared system RAM or dedicated?).

ALSO... download Hoster 4.11 that we just finished uploading. It's at the Download Page.

You can see the changes from 4.10 at the Hoster Versions Upgrade Page.

There are many un-documented upgrades that we did to prior code as we found any memory leaks, old bugs no one had ever "directly" reported (often it's not clear why a crash happens), etc. We have really beat on 4.11 so I hope it is stable.

If there are any problems reported we can duplicate, we'll fix them ASAP.

Remove Silence and the new Audio Fades take a LOT of compute power to perform live.

The manual has been massively rewritten, and a new INDEX added at the end. If you use the new "clickable images" (with image maps) above the text Table of Contents, you can click directly on any item and go directly to its manual topic.

Tis' music to our ears!

There was a "crash bug" in 4.10 that I suspect was triggering after about 30-40 seconds AFTER you stopped playing. It would happen if the Intermission View of the Show Display screen was DISABLED (i.e. the "Always On" checkbox was not clicked). We had added code to auto-update the TIME for each singer in the Singers Names Display, while in Intermission View and a song in the Playlist is not playing. When the code went to increment the TIME fields for each displayed singer in the SND window, the TIME fields to update where shut down. The program would crash.

Forgive me for even suggesting your computer may not have been powerful enough. However, Remove Silence does add a lot more compute power, especially when we are drawing the Title page at an accelerated rate. That... takes many times the CPU power than normal "rendering" of the graphic Title page.

I'm exceedingly glad to hear everything is running fine now. You are a prime example User who we wrote Remove Silence for. We too have been blown away by the major change in how shows sound now.

BTW: Can you translate your British "chuffed" meaning in English on this side of the Pond?

I'd like to use this as a Testimonial on Hoster 4.11 if that's OK with you. Thus, I need a parenthetical (definition) after it so others will understand your true excitement meaning!
