GTA 4 - RADIO VOLUME TOO LOW

[craige]

Guyz,

 

i know there an option under "Audio"... But i have Max. Audio and only 25% SFX.. but still i find the Radio not at all loud, also my Mp3's plays with low output..... But when i play the same file without the game in my media player the Mp3 sounds normal with full rich volume...

 

Whts wrong here?

 

PS: Personal Mp3 Files working great with san andreas as well.

In the audio options turn the setting to radio and not shuffle or repeat...this will set the volume for your mp3 louder...make sure you do a complete scan and not a quick one.

Do you have the latest drivers for your sound card?

I have to do the same thing. I'm not sure why it's like this. If in shuffle or sequential it plays SOME tunes in a lower db. All ripped with the exact settings. If I play them out of the game they're all the same. The game must scan it in a way that muffs them up. I'm not sure why...

 

But it does state in the readme...

 

"Complete Scan - Reads the audio files within your folder, performs additional analysis to enhance user experience."

 

lol I just read this as well...I'll have to give it a shot...

 

"Quick Scan - Reads the audio files within your folder, plays back exactly as they are

in the folder."

 

Try quick scan see if that helps. I'll do that now.

 

EDIT: I tired complete scan, and quick scan, as well as, auto scan. Same results. Deleting the shortcut in the User Music folder each time, exiting reloaded the game each time. Still no difference. Also tried without the shortcut. With the music folders being directly in the User Music folder, no difference. Did this with one album. Changing from shuffle, sequential, or radio did not change anything (for me) either.
