I have reinstalled Oblivion and modded out with FCOM and a few other mods, however, that doesnt really have anything to do with my problem, which is why its so odd... I wanted to change up the music for oblivion and found some really good pieces that came from my XRAY DOG collection but only like 1 or 2 of them play... specifically the Battle music wont play at all.... The only pattern i can see with which songs play and which dont is the ones that dont play are from one specific album... other than that everything is the same. Any ideas on what the problem is? or better yet, how to fix it?

Perhaps it could be with the encoding of the audio files, they may be in the same format but ive found that certain encoders dont always leave a working file. I havent added oblivion music myself but have had a similar issue with audio encoding before.

Hmmm well that would mean that it was the original file encoder, not me... I haven't altered these files in any way... so im assuming you dont know a workaround?

I tried it once and found that only 192kbps files worked.

You could try using a free encoder to change the files to this bit rate, that may work, and reencoding them into the same file type, or into another and then back. Just a thought. :)
