Vista Gods - No Sound When I Play Windows Media Movies
 

Hey guys, once again my favorite operating system is causing me issues. When I go to break.com to watch some funny vids I can see the movies but can't hear any sound?

I am playing in Windows Media Ultimate I believe?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? If I have one more stupid issue with Vista i think i am going to freak out.

Thanks again!

Can you hear any sound period, say from a MP3 file? Is it JUST online, or is it all sound files?

No I can hear music when I go to a site like this

I think it's a codec I am missing from Windows Media Player?

If it's a codec have to find out which file type it's having issues with

how many laptops have gone though the window tonight?


BE HONEST

Hmmm... if you didn't delete anything you should have any codecs necessary to play those flash vids @ break.com and you should be able to hear the audio there. You may wanna grab flash player 9 from adobe to see if that fixes it. I was going to suggest you try to get vista cert. sound card drivers but since you can hear other sound fine it's probably not related to your sound card.

I have the same problem with some mpeg files after I installed a ac3 codec

I got my vista yesterday with the new laptop. Shit, I hate this piece of crap, non-compatible with most of my games and software.
