It's probably DivX Audio. Fix it by installing DivX 3.11 or install DivX Audio codec from Nimo Codec Pack.

Another potential culprit is AC3 audio, in which case you need to get the AC3 filters... I've gotten them from Doom9.net or they are in Nimo as well.

also, you could try finding the subtitled version, so you don't need sound, it sure adds alot to the movie, but you don't NEED it, hhe. good luck, i don't get sound in any of my divx's cause stupid windows media player can't see my sound card, even though windows can play startup sounds, and UT plays 'em, and winamp plays 'em.....ARGAH!

Like Morph sez, 'tis prolly DivX audio (old school WMA hack). The codec can be "installed" by moving it to the "system" folder once extracted from whatever package you get it in.

For AC3, you can register what you have installed such as Cyberlink's from PowerDVD which is better than ye olde Intervideo codec included in most packages floating around. You still need the mpeg one from those though.
