Ok this is drivin me nuts.
I got a movie just recently and its in a killer format its just the audio will not work. Media Player requests a codec from god knows where, and of course, there's no log of WHAT its attempting to download so I have no clue where to start. I've tried reinstalling 5.02 and still nothing. The file ext is .avi by the way.
ideas?
ok... what codecs do you already have installed?
You may want to look at nimo pack... www.vcdhelp.com
with stuff like this, I tend to find it's some kind of hybrid mp3 / wma format, as NooNoo suggested, try the nimo codec patches, if that doesn't work try here DivX Digest and hopefully you will get what you need.
tried the nimo pack -- been playin with it
even installed PowerDVD for kicks
no help so far
oh btw, installed the entire decoder pack on the nimo (still nothin')

plenty of codecs here, how big is the file anyhow, maybe ac3 audio?
file's huge, 700mb a piece
heh which codec should I start with on that site??
she was right -- elecard did it :-)
cool... elecard plays all kinds of stuff that nothing else plays.. however it does tend to quit for no good reason on my 98 box every 20 mins or so...
workin great -- I just uninstalled the divx codec that came with it (it's terrible) and the movie looks great and !!! I got sound
