i have downloaded a movie (cloned-Last.Of.The.Mohicans-DivX-DVDrip) but when i play it in WMP... no sound (video is ok). My sound chip is AC97. My OS is XP SP2. I downloaded divX 3.11alpha, divx audio 402, AC3 filter 1_11, Ac3 filter 1_30b, coreACC, DivX Player. but no improvement. anyone help me to play it perfectly. thanks
Find out which audio codec is in use by the video file. Use gspot (http://www.headbands.com/gspot) or avicodec (http://avicodec.duby.info)
I’ve install GSpot and it shows Video Codecs are installed, Audio codec(0x0055 MPEG-1 Layer 3 (CBR)) installed. But in “Proposed Codec Solution and Test” section it shows :
Faild to connect Output pin 0x00942bdc (“Stream 00”
on AVI Splitter to input pin 0x04b2216c (“In” on filter 0x031272e1 (“ffdshow raw vido filter”, ConnectDirec() faild. Error : 0x80040207; [unknown]
now what can i do ??
any way ... thanks for your help.
I’m having the exact same prob. (Except with Layer 2 audio). I have installed four gajillionbillion codecs. None seem to work. The ACE Mega Dashboard thingy shows I have mpeg audio layer 2 installed. The “AVI CoDeCs” program shows that I *DO NOT* have mpeg audio layer 2 installed.
Half of my files play sound, the other half don’t. And YES, they are all reporting that they are mpeg audio layer 2.

I can’t seem to find any real solutions. I’ve tried tons and tons different video files, and can’t seem to find a commonality between the ones that don’t have sound. Has anyone else ever heard of this? Thanks in advance!

Ahhh, I just noticed that the two programs I used to list the installed codecs, both report different versions (You can see Layer 3 is 1.9.305 in AVICodec, but it’s 1.9.0.0311 in the Dashboard).
Who in the f came up with this god awful ridiculously convoluted way to view movies? With video and audio all seperated?!? Why would you ever NOT want sound? And if you don’t want video, it’s called an .MP3! Frustrating as hell! I bet it was the same guy who made video and audio cables seperate for your TV. Only took, what, 15 years to finally make HDMI cables?
I’m gonna go cry now.
