Post subject:  Ripping to MP3+G labling issues

Hi - I am moving to a PC based Karaoke system. But when I try to rip CDgs to Mp3+G I have some pronblems with the labeling. Artist, Title etc. In the ripping software the tracks to not show up with names, just unknown artist etc. I am using PCDJ KJ. And PCDJ FX. The KJ part does not have a ripper even though thte guys at Visiosonic claim it does but for some reason my version will not update, so I use the FX ripper but there are no names for artist, and title. Am I going to have to enter all this info by hand. I tried a different demo ripper from terasoft but same problem. Also tried the Hoster demo but same problem. I know there must be a way around this. Some of my disks do get the info in terasoft but sound choice and my DK disks just give me unknown artists. Is there some software with a decent data base on the info. I was told the info is encapsulated in the CDGs but it does not show up. Help - save me from days of data entry. I'd rather be singing.

just shaddup and type it. Once it's done, you're all happy. :) All of us did! :P

In all seriousness, do you have your list available in any format such as Excel or word? Try cutting and pasting, or converting your excel list to .txt... then it's a simple matter of copying that.

Matt,
Yeah I know the the feeling, :reddevil: I'm too busy after doing the Priddis CDG's on PCKJ to wanna do that crap again. Glad I sold most of the systems reciently. :D :rotflmao: I'm going to enjoy the summer before all the work begins in a few months again. :bawling:

Post subject:  Tried MS Access??

If you have MS Access, I'd suggest using it rather than a word processing or even spreadsheet application.

If you have Access and are interested, I know where you can get a database, configured for easy data entry. It has reports that create song lists/books by artist or song. There's one report that will create cd labels, if you choose to make backups for everyday use.

It does not, however, type for you - unfortunately.

I use CDG Ripper to compress to mp3+g and it has a good database.

Just a suggestion...

webrabbit,
The demo version of MTU Hoster states on it that it has a limited database. It is meant as a demo only to see if your existing equipment will work with the software. I have loaded over 1500 cdg's into my hoster system, and it DOES have the a Database in the program that automaticaly puts in the artist name, title, brand and cdg #. It also now has a search feature, and are adding support for multiplex, and mp3 +G.

I agree that hoster is a great software but it's not cheap! I would also recommend an excellent software that not many people know about that does EVERYTHING Karawin Pro.
