Hi

I have a dvd i created using VSO divxtodvd, I cant hear the audio at all.

I have checked gspot and it says i have ac3 and codecs are installed.

I have ac3 filter and all the reccomended codecs.
Normal audio is fine but ac3 is totally silent.

Also, in ac3filter config, i notice that when i play the DVD on windvd, none of the EQ sound bars are moving, so it looks like nothing is getting to the ac3filter.
I changed the diectshow filter setting to wav also.

I have a SBlive sound card with KXproject drivers, i have tried adjusting all of the speaker/input etc settings to no avail.

I have made sure the prority of the ac3 filter is set at 1 in codecs settings.

I made sure i restarted the player each time I made a change.

Getting impation, and ideas please?

If you still have the original AVI, try change the audio to mpeg layer 3 with Power Video Converter or X Video Converter (change video to XviD too if need be). Works for me every time. Also, try download and install K-Lite codec Pack (full or mega version) if you don't have all the needed codecs:

Good luck!
