MCE volume dip on ATIS

[julian46 21]

Has anyone experience the volume of MCE drop to almost below audible (cockpit noise etc) when ATIS automatically comes up on the screen ?

(P3D V4.3)

It still works but hard to hear - looking for a way to disable ATIS displaying and playing automatically.

Also is there a list of the WorkFlow order (for PMDG 737NGX)

 

thanks - great app - Julian

There is a little known Windows feature whereby the latter would automatically reduce the volume of applications it deems as background tasks (like MCE).

It can affect any other app running outside the simulator process (PFE, Radar Contact, ProAtcX, VoxAtc)

To disable that behaviour, go to Windows Control Panel and run <audio> applet.

When the "Audio properties" window appears, go to <Communications> tab and select option "Do Nothing" (which means don't auto-attenuate audio level)

Should be all good after that.

Thanks Kindly - I just discovered that too - correct it does fix the problem

Also the File "PMDG NGX MCE.PDF" contains the flow list I was interested in for a complete flight cold and dark to take off landing and shutdown / secure - nice work
