HLDJ playing microphone

Post by steve »

When ever i try to play songs on hldj it plays my mic. My OS is Win7 64bit, hldj version 1.6.0a7 64bit

1) Does HLDJ launch the game correctly for you?
Yes

2) Does "HLDJ Loaded Successfully" appear in console on starting the game (with no errors)?
Yes

3) What is the console output after selecting a song, or issuing other HLDJ commands such as "hldj_next"?

Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_k.cfg
Loaded : sample_src

4) After loading one of the sample audio files, perform a search of your Steam directory (without stopping HLDJ) for the file "voice_input.wav" - does it show up, and if so, where?
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\(steamname)\garrysmod

I can listen to the voice_input.wav when its one of your sample files but when i load my own file, voice_input wont open. It disappears when i stop playing the song.

5) Does voice normally work for you? If not, or you do not have a mic, have you remembered to set up any applicable options in your operating system and/or the game?
Yes

Any ideas?

So hldj dosent play any of the songs, not even the sample files.

Although I'm not certain why the other files will not open (check that you are not stopping HLDJ while playing them), if the sample files load and play fine in an external player but not in-game, then the problem is likely with the game; more specifically ensure that you are testing on a server (i.e. your own) that allows audio playing via sv_allow_voice_input_from_file (as explained in the sticky).
