Thank you for the speedy reply,I'm in dire need of this as only a week ago I found that my gramaphone was only playing 10 of the available tracks stuck on a loop,needless to say I now know these tracks off by heart and they are driving me nuts this will help loads

It wouldn't hurt my feelings if you still put up that link you mentioned.

I am in the process of changing all above mentioned files into OGG files and by changing the names(editing out the singers name and adding a letter or 2 here and there) It will sound like you are listening to some tunes and then a radio broadcast will kick in. Its all in german but it helps with the immersion factor.

Can you use your own music in this gramaphone ingame?

yup but stick to OGG format seems to be less problematic from what I understand but I may be corrected.

There is no limit as each track is played one at a time and the list isn't stored anywhere other than as the file list in your folder.

I've got over 5000 tracks in mine.

Use SH3CMDR to randomize your gramophone tracts. If the volume of the files is too low, use MP3Gain to balance them. If the files are ogg, convert them to mp3, balance them and then reconvert them to ogg if you want. I have found that mp3 work just as well, and that a mixture of ogg and mp3 work fine.
U boat sim has a whole section of music for SH3.

Irish, what exactly is mp3gain, never heard of it. My gramaphone volume is so low it's barely audible and I've given up even attempting to listen anymore, this would surely help...I think.

Another option is Windows Sound Recorder on your PC in accessories/entertainment.
Go to EFFECTS/INCREASE VOLUME then FILE/SAVE

Hemisent,
It is a wonderful program to ballance the volume of mp3 files. You can set them to any volume you want.
