latest audio codecs ...

[rh71]

Have an XVID (not a movie) encode but WMP6.4 nor WMP9 can process the audio portion. Any ideas what I should install to help this along ?

Could be an AC3 stream

I recall some codec pack names being thrown around. I know Nimo is probably too bulky. What were some of the better ones (most important) packs to install ?

GSpot .. it will tell you what you need.


codec packs = evil

ffdshow & ac3filter : anything else is simply unnecessary.

Damnit... used GSpot on it and said the file is 100% complete (not truncated) and the audio stream was AC3 (already installed)... tried to test-render and it says:

0x00040242: VFW_S_PARTIAL_RENDER - some of the streams in this movie are in an unsupported format

So it's a source file (audio-encode) problem that they let us download... great.

The file in question: friends.the.one.that.goes.behind.the.scenes.xvid-zirk.avi ... anyone else grab this and get sound ?
