I've got several hunderd working in mine. All I do is put the files into the grammophone directory and away it plays. What sort of encoding are you using?

Have you put anything in there? It only comes with one piece of music. There are many downloads, and GWX comes with a bunch, but stock only has one.

Try playing them with Realplayer.

If they are compatible with it, they are compatible with SH3. Have you named them in their numerical order (i.e.: 001, 002, 003, etc.)? Problems have arisin from that. Finally, you might consider updating SH3 to the 1.4 patch (best one of them all; I use it and I have no gramophone problems, compared to what I once did).

I tried this but I can't find the gramophone file where is it?

C:/Program Files/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter III/ Data/ Sound/ Gramophone

place MP3 files inside the Gramophone folder and they will play on the gramophone in the game

The most stable format for music files is ogg.vorbis, they can be compressed into smaller size files without any resultant loss in quality.

To convert files, go to: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm don't forget to d/l the codecs from further down the page
