Music not playing

[Eorl666]

Hi there, I've got a problem with HLDJ where in DoD, the music isn't playing at all. It lists it in the la command, I'm sure I converted it properly, but it's just not doing anything at all

*edit*

It seems to not play anything in CSS either...shame

When you select a song, what is the console message displayed? And when you attempt to play it, do you hear anything?

[Eorl666]

It says it's loading the song when i select from my LA list. When i hit my k key to play music, no sound can be heard

[Eorl666]

Anyone know whats happening? Would be greatly appreciated

Does the mic symbol appear (speaker icon?). If not, voice may not be enabled, check that voice_modenable is set to 1 in console. Also, are you running Vista?

[Eorl666]

The mic symbol comes up when i hit my play button, and no, im not running vista

[Eorl666]

Anyone got any clues? Seems like no one knows whats happening or how to fix it bummer

For CSS, check that the Counter-Strike Source folder contains a "voice_input.wav" after selecting a song. If so, the problem probably lies in your game settings, you should re-configure your microphone/sound options to make sure voice is not muted or incredibly low.

I have the same problem, but music i have downloaded after i got HLDJ (eg Mortal Bonkbat or You are a pirate) works. I do have one old audio from the cstrike sounds that works though.

Edit: I just downloaded Rick Ashley - Never gonna give you up and it doesn't work on HLDJ. I guess that whipes that "Old music" theory away.
Edit 2: I just tried them with HLSS and the same results. same songs the work and don't work. Maybe it was a problem with converting.

Your problem is not the same; it lies in improper conversion:

please next time read the manual before posting and if so, make sure to do it in an appropriate or new topic.

Yeah, I have excatly the same problem. I've done EVERYTHING like in the manual, converted and such. The game where I try is Synergy. I have done this http://www.hldj.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=13 too, but the music doesn't hear at all. I have XP.


EDIT: I tried to play music on CS Source, but it's same problem like in Synergy, no music can be heard.

Did you try this:

For CSS, check that the Counter-Strike Source folder contains a "voice_input.wav" after selecting a song. If so, the problem probably lies in your game settings, you should re-configure your microphone/sound options to make sure voice is not muted or incredibly low.

I didn't find that file from anywhere, and theres nothing wrong with game settings.

in C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\*********\counter-strike source\cstrike i have a folder named "voice_ban.dt".. is this normal.. if not how do i fix it?

Please can anybody answer Yo's question i have the same file if its an problem

I doubt that file is the problem (probably keeps track of muted players), but you can delete it if you wish, should be harmless. First try the other suggestions I listed in your topic.
