Ok, here's a new one. I got a file encoded with Xvid, and can play the video, but I have no sound. If I load the file in WMP 10 and look at the properties it says "Nero Digital Audio Decoder" for the Audio codec. What is that?
Edit:
Found this ... http://download.divxmovies.com/divx_audio_402.zip . But that didn't seem to help either.
Edit 2:
Did better this time ... http://www.free-codecs.com/download/AC3_Filter.htm
use that it works
Use the K-Lite codec pack here it covers most requirements and should give you correct audio and video playback.
I now have a new problem. It is supposed to be subtitled but they appear to be in .srt format. The latest MaximumPC mentions them as being used with VOBSub. But looking at the program, it only allows the removal of the subs to seperate files. But WMP won't play them back. Any thoughts?
I recomend Media Player Classic from these guys as it loads just about any subtitle file format and displays them over just about any media file. SRT files are a text file with timing and color info, looks kinda like HTML or XML and isn't handled by Windows Media Player (last time I looked). You can use VobSub to encode the movie with the subs, I think, but I believe that would require totally reencoding the movie, losing you some quality and a good chunk of time.
