Self Radio not showing up

[Portside]

Before you ask, I've found absolutely nothing on the internet to my problem. So here's the details

*The songs are in .MP3 format
*There's more than 5 songs (12 to be exact)
*The songs have a name, title and author (if that matters)
*They're in the correct placement (C:\Users\MYUSER\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\User Music)
*No, they're not shortcuts, they're a copy of the originals (I've also tried shortcuts too!!)
*They're in a folder (also tried out of a folder)
*Yes, I quick scanned and full scanned it stays greyed for a few seconds then returns to normal
*I've restarted, shutdown and ran the game normally but yet nothing shows up.

Please help .-.

There's a community guide here on self radio. There may be something there.

Sounds like you did everything right. You should be able to hear your music on Self Radio. The only thing I can think of to prevent this is that your songs have the .mp3 extension but they are .wma format (or some other format). If you didn't rip the music yourself, verify they are .mp3 with a program like G-Spot or another codec information tool.

Hi thanks for your reply, I don't think it's that... have a look: http://prntscr.com/8c9dsq

My radio is working with shortcuts that are not in a folder. Are you in Online when you are trying to scan for tracks? Try in single player if so.

Have you made sure that music volume is turned up in Options? It affects the radio as well as the game music.

[Portside]

Yes, I'm in singleplayer when I scan for tracks. The volume is at its highest but still it ceases to show... I honestly have no idea what to do. I went to the R* Support Center but they're clueless over there with their Support Team. I made a very detailed ticket and he just rewrote what to do yet I mentioned in my ticket I had done what he mentioned...

Is your music inside an iTunes folder? I saw someone who had to move their music out of the iTunes folder, and then make shortcuts from those. I've never tried putting my music directly into the self radio folder, so I'm not sure if that's any different.

Try this as a test.
Get yourself a good CD. Rip ONE song off it in 256bit MP3 format. Put that song in a folder outside of your user folder ie: C:\music\song.mp3. Make a shortcut to that song and place the shortcut in your GTA user track folder. Make sure nothing else is there. Start GTA in single player and complete scan then quick scan.
See what that does.

do you have more than 4 songs in your file ?

[BlazeD]

The number of songs isn't a factor, Wance. I have 180 songs and no problems.

[Portside]

No they're not in an iTunes folder.
Yes, there's more than four songs.
And I tried the CD thing, still nothing.
