Codec i'm using above is also the latest shark codec for my system. I am home now and upgraded home system to 12.41 and no change here. My old labtop has 12.24 on it and I booted it up and runs fine.

12.41 installed no change. Thinking about Tom's idea on the codec. The one thing all machines have in common is they both have the same shark codec installed. They were all fresh downloaded on each machine. Can someone post a link to the codec they are using. I'll uninstall the one i'm using, install the one from the link and try it agin. Using VistaCodecs_v600.exe

downloading 12.41. lready reunstall codeu after fresh install.

Work pc is a seperate install and runs vista home pc is a seperate install and runs xp nothing transfered from one computer to another. Both works fine and did fine with karaoke until 12.33. Then karaoke quit working. Same for friends new install and he has windows 7. Whne he upgraded to a paid membership and added karaoke, the karaoke didn't work from day one. His first install was 12.35. He upgraded to early this week to get karaoke. His system only has karaoke. Going to change the name of my work Gameex to gameex old and do a new install and only try karaoke.

On the computer at home, it still does what it did in 12.39 Previews show. Zip files no sound in previews and in karaoke. unzipped files play sound in previews and in karaoke

Updated to 12.40. Now when I click a song zip or unzipped then the screen goes black and then it goes back to the Gamex.

Sounds great, gonna call it a night here, I sure Tom will figure out the karaoke problem. I'll update my laptop at work in the morning. I use it for testing before I transfer anything to my cab or HTPC. My cab here has 217 emu on it. Lots of MESS stuff. A good place to pick what systems to do is Circo and Toms download service. If they have the media then emulation of those systems are good. For personal use sound would be fine. But for example,my friend is a pastor and wants to use Gameex in his church to que songs for the choir. Doens't want the previews to play while he's loading the songs in the que.or while he's wanting to load a song at a time.

No don't mute those. Helps keep me awake

Put the cold ones away for abit, only killed half the bugs, still swarming. Did you get that zip I attached earlier.And did they help ya any. And have you got the rest of the backgrounds done yet

Ok downloaded and installed 12.39. Previews now show and songs play. If they are zipped, the sound doesn't play in the preview or when you play the song. If unzipped , the sound plays in the preview and when you play the song. In both cases, the words are huge on the scrren and you can't see all of them. Just a thought, you may want to add a option to mute the sound in the previews. People using it in a club setting want to see the words when selecting the song, but you don't want to play it for the whole audience. Only sound when you hit play and they perform the song.

YAY thanks Tom and Adultery I'll download the update later and try it. Any chance, Tom in the future to adding folders like in videos for Karaoke. Would help in keeping my songs organized.

Ok just got home, I tried a different set of songs on my home computer and I get the same results, Its also a XP.It is on 12.37 My friend who just registered yesterday has a different set of files then either of my setups. He is getting the same results on windows 7. My HTPC is on 12.24 and it works fine using either zip or unzipped files. Just doesn't have previews in that version.

No has not been working since update. Last time it worked was this morning and I was on 12.33. deleted KaraokeData.dat and KaraokeFiles.dat When I ran Gameex it created the two files again as it should and they were the same as the ones I deleted Reinstalled the codec still not working. Think I'm going to call iot a night Tom, This machine we use at work and I've need to call it a night and go home. THanks for your help. I'm test tommorow and try again.

checked that first thing after the update. Whats crazy is I played karaoke this morning. Installed update, changed nothing else and no sound. Log says failed opening file

Yes sir, I click on a song. In the bottom left hand size its says playing for just a few seconds and then word playing goes away. Nothing ever plays, no sound nothing. As you scroll thru the songs there is no video preview.

The scrolling thread says make sure you have a microphone. We don't use a mike. could that be the problem.

You already have select a game.bak that shows up if the emu doesn't have a bak. Would like the Snes.bak underneither the SNES to say select a game.

running windows xp . Friend i just had sign up has windows 7. Both working same way

When you have a background for a emulator and you pick the system it goes and shows a top ribbion that shows the system name. If you don't have a background it says select a game. Would like the statement select a game somewhere on the ribbon when you have a background. So my stupid friends won't ask me what do i do next. I've also attached a set of ribbions I got awhile back that has a lot of systems that you don't have backgrounds for. Maybe you can use them, maybe not.

Thank you Tom
