Music will not play. At all. Everything is set for it to play.

EDIT: The same night I posted this, two nights before this edit, I restarted my comptuer, and it's worked fine since. Here's the original thread:

 

 

Let's go down the list of all the things set for music to play:

 

Better Music System checked off in OBMM? Check.

Music Enabled in the .ini? Check.

The volume adjusted above zero? Check.

 

 

I can't think of anything else that's going wrong. I haven't touched the game in days. It was playing fine before.

 

I had to reinstall everything from the ground up a while ago because of a virus. Windows. Oblivion. FCOM. Better Cities. Everything.

 

I got it all working.

 

I figured out a weird bug with another mod that was bugging me. Everything was fine.

 

But now, no music is playing when I start the game. The mp3 files themselves play fine in winamp.

 

 

This game refuses to cooperate. After all the standard problems are fixed, it comes up with something like this.

Have you adjusted the music volume level in your audio settings in the options menu?

Yes I did. That's what I meant with:

Thanks for replying though. I appreciate it.

 

Ironically the issue fixed itself after I restarted my computer. So it was Windows somehow. (Yes I had the volume up in the windows menu.)

You may have a codec conflict. Try resetting your codecs. Certain codecs interfere with Oblivion.

 

K-Lite Codec Pack - http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm <-- Use this to reset your codecs.

I'll try that if it happens again. Why would the codec conflict only happen once? I haven't done any new codec installs in a long time.

 

Thanks though. :thumbsup:

Maybe it has to do with a process using it or something. It should not be a one-time issue, but codec problems affect all sorts of things. The most recent string of issues for which I have suggested that fix (and it worked) were stuttering and lag issues, but codec interference can also cause crashes and different sound issues. Just FYI...

[Megatarius]

Sounds good. Thanks!
