Re-new songs database
I have been an MTU Hoster user/customer for many years and because it is full of extraneous songs, files, folders etc, I want to rebuild the songs/singers database within Hoster by first deleting the old database and re-entering a completely over-hauled one. What is the best way to do this please?

Re: Re-new songs database
Hi Walt. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my inquiry. Yes, I think you have afairly accurately summarised my problem. Over the years, I\'ve added new songs and deleted others for various reasons and consequently there is quite a sequential disparity in my song index. All of my songs are .kma files and I have in excess of 7000. I want to update my song/singers lists by reducing the number of folders and streamlining the index reference numbers.
Kind regards, Lloyd Te Kani |

I would print this out and go over it a few times to make sure it is clear before you start. Also before you start you may want to take the time to organize your song files by making the define order the same for all. There are several programs you can use for this but if you choose to do this, WARNING, make a backup of your songs first in case you mess up while doing the renaming. You dont have to do this but if all your songs are the same DEFINE ORDER the indexing will be much faster. Other wise you need to be aware that different companies use different define orders and you will have to change your setting for each company to make sure you have everything in its proper place,i.e, title, singer, disk i.d. etc. There are other ways to do some of these steps but this is the way I have done it. If anything is not clear, please post any questions. GOOD LUCK! |

OMG Walt! You weren\'t kidding about the enormity of the task but I will read through your latest reply to my post a number of times if necessary and ensure I understand the steps required before I go any further. Again, thanks for your help.
Kind regards Lloyd Te Kani |
