Small problem I'm having just trying to change the startup sound on my 20GB VW DMS.
following the instructions, I had this accomplished for some time, just by placing a .wav file in the tts folder, and adding the line 'startup_sound=/dos/tts/sound.wav' at the top of the phatbox.ini file, just under the line [Phatbox]
I was trying to change this to a selection of random files, per the instructions, and have not suceeded. Where am I going wrong, this is what I tried...
placed a folder (starts) of .wav files in the tts folder. Then typed the command: Startup_sound=rand:/dos/tts/starts at the top of the phatbox.ini file.
nothing plays at startup.

I think this got moved to the profiles.ini on the phtdta profiles directory. Not sure 100 percent though...
QuoteStartup_sound=rand:/dos/tts/starts
You might need a trailing forward slash:
Startup_sound=rand:/dos/tts/starts/
Ok, I'll try these thing out, thanks.
Should the command be put at the biginning of the file, or under the specific VW headunit model I am using?
It needs to be under the [Phatbox] section in phatbox.ini.
Ok i just found this thread (I am reading the whole forum).
So let me ask the obvious question. It is possible to change the start up sound? I see there is a "Welcome to PhatNoise.mp3" and a text file labled "WelcomeFileName.txt" and another "WelcomeFileText.txt"
I don't need random, i just want to change the start up sound to the Mazda Zoom Zoom Zoom song clip. Can i just change the text files to match the song file?
I suppose, i could just record a new file to the same specs, label it the same, and replace the stock phatnoise sound. i Imagine it wouldnt know the difference???
I guess i answered my own question....

Yes you can change the file name in the ini or make a new file with that file name.
