The volume on analysed tracks goes from quiet to very loud to quiet and so-on suddenly, exactly the same as this post.
The issue only affects Rekordbox on Windows 11. I can analyse the track on Windows 10 no problem. This is preventing me from upgrading my laptop and I live in fear that the problem will happen when I'm playing.

It's a known issue with the 22H2 update for Windows 11 that is causing problems with the AAC codec (used by M4A files). This is not within our control and I encourage you to either report your complaint to Microsoft or consider cross-converting your file to another format.
Thank you for your understanding.

Just to be sure,
Are you running the latest version of RekordBox? Latest drivers for you computer?
Yes - RB 6.6.10 (Problem also existed in RB 6.6.9). All latest versions of drivers. Does not affect RB on Win10.
Searching around, seems like there might be a codec issue affecting RB on Win11 for M4A files, but one would think there would be some info from AlphaTheta (Pioneer) on this - and specifically, a realistic workaround (i.e. It's not realistic to have to convert all my M4A's to another format).
This issue basically makes RB unusable on Win11 for these file types.
Oh, Now I got the point.
I'm not sure how RB uses its codecs, but I would try something k-lite codec pack just to try. If not, maybe converting would be a unrealistic workaround
I don't want to install 3rd party codecs to resolve an issue that should be fixed in product. Let's see what information these guys come up with.
Totaly agree, but they take forever to answer
