Hey.
I got a little problem on Windows 7 64Bit. I use Attractmode with Rocketlauncher together. My main Emulator is Retroarch, but i use a few others also. It dosnt matter what Emulator i pick, or if i use Rocketlauncher or not, if i come back after i play a game the music stops playing. Sometimes it works from Time to Time, but like every thrid or fourth time it stucks. On start everything is working fine and if i skip the next track it works also. Could someone help me to make it working, maybe with a simple Script for the .nut file, so that it skipped the next track than? Maybe should the maker of this plugin look over it, for a simple and fast bugfixing.
I am on the end of my ideas now. Testet everything. I hope you can help.

If ou need more informations, let me know. Noone any idea how to fix ist? The Ambient Music was the only reason, why i switch AM over all others.

That forum dont work :/

patience and humility!
people spend their time for free.
-test another emulator starting your games.
that is always the fastest and simplest way to check that AM is really the problem.
-do you use correct sound settings, depending on event/action in AM (ambient soundtrack, startup sound, game return sound an so on...)?
//EDIT:
another note:
you can upgrade your windows 7 to windows 10 for free (Windows 7 supports ends at 14.01.2020).
use windows 10 update assistent tool / upgrade advisor / MediaCreationTool1909.exe
maybe your problem is an OS problem..

Sound Settings: There are no sound settings. You can activate it, you can deactivate it. Yu can set a button to the Next track and grab infos for the track. Wierd is, if i skipping to the next track (after the default picked one loop like crazy) all works with normal again. So i guess i need one simple script that skip the preselected track to the next one.
Test others Emulators: Its onehundert percent a problem of Attract mode or atleast from this Audio Mode plugin. I tryed Dolphin (ofcurse i got my own wii here and rip th game legaly) I tryed epcsx (ript legaly the E-Tekken 3 cd) and i tryed BeetleHW from Retroarch... no change. If i quit the game and land on the Attract mode frontend the Music Loops. This Music sits here in One folder and 128KBit/s as MP3.
Upgrate to 10: Even if every Hair on my Arm went upways cause i hate Microsoft for Bugfixing my Windows 7 to dead, i upgradet to windows 10 now. I hate it with every breath of my Life. No Aero Glass )=. But i switched just to found out that in the last years my I3 530 FINALY get supported. I will stay Windows 10 now, its realy faster now than my 7 Before. But the main problem with AM still appears.
It dont happend each time. Its like random. Sometimes up to 5 times in a row, than sometimes never. I am still up to a "autoskip next track bugfix" or something.

@ GrizzlyTnT
-sound settings in AM:
start AM > press TAB key > Sound
there are no files set/list is empty. correct?
-start attract-console.exe > if your problem occurs, check commandline window whats the problem/error message.

( I got it in German and gues the english words)
First: Sound Volume is set to 100
Second: Ambient Volume is on 100 either
Third: Movie Volume is set to Zero.
All others art blank. What should i edit, to make this Music work if i come back after i play a game?

Greetings GrizzlyTnT!
I had the same issue and here is the workaround for me:
Edit plugins/AudioMode.nut in notepad:
Near the bottom, in row 214 exclude/disable change_track( 1 ); (with //) as shown below:
if ( ttype == Transition.FromGame )
//change_track( 1 );
Best regards, Cheers.
/Edit: Note that you'll have to re-do this when updating your AttractMode to newer versions/daily builds etc. since that also overwrites the AudioMode.nut file
