Divx sound is not working

[Axeor]

Hi,

When playing some DivX, xvid files, the image runs correctly but there is no sound. this happens only with divx files. on other formats the sound is in much higher tones than normal, I have already installed the DIVX and DVD decoder. What can I do ?

In order to play DivX movies you need to install the DivX codec, DirectX and a media player which supports the codec. We recommend using Windows Media Player 6.4 or higher to play DivX movies. go to divx site and install the DivX codec,from the DivX codec section.

To find out which audio codec you're missing you should download GSpot and open the movie you are having problems playing. The program will give you information about what codecs are needed to play the movie and if you have them installed on your computer. However, please note that even though GSpot might say that you have compatible codecs installed this information isn't always correct. To see which codec is actually used to decode the audio, use the "Render" option at the bottom of the program. If GSpot says "Rendering failed" or "Partial failure" then you don't have any compatible audio codec installed, so you need to use audio codec name to lookup the codec you need to download and install in the following list:

• MPEG-1 Layer 3 Codec tag 55 tag 85 MP3 codec
• DivX Audio Compressor tag 161 tag 353 DivX audio
• AC3 Codec tag 2000 tag 8192 AC3 codec
• Ogg Vorbis Codec tag 674F tag 26447 OGG codec

The new DivX codec doesn't include support for the DivX , Audio format, so you won't be able to watch these movies with sound simply using the new DivX codec. The only way to watch these movies with sound is either using the original DivX codec v3.11 alpha, or by installing the DivX ,audio decompressor separately.
