Wonder if someone can help me out here. Of late i've had problems playing back xvid files on my pc, In bsplayer, wmp10 and powerdvd6 I get picture but no sound. It turns out this is because the xvids audio is in VBR or Constant format.
Strangley if I play them in media player classic I get video and audio fine however, so I think its a codec issue.
Looking at the files in Gspot informs me I have 3 compatable audio codecs installed. I have two entries for Fraunhoffer IIS MPEG Layer 3 codec (LC3Codec.ACM) and Nero Digital Audio Decoder (neaudio.ax), GSpot also reports on render the following:
0x00040242: VFW_S_PARTIAL_RENDER - some of the streams in this movie are in an unsupported format. The following combination of filters were used:
xxxx.avi video source
AVISplitter (video splitter)
3ivx D4 Video Decoder (video decoder)
Video renderer (video renderer)
I'm wondering where quartz.dll comes into all this, because the name appears for the avi splitter and renderer.
So my questions are, how come media player classic can play these files fine yet no other program can? Has it just been encoded shoddily? Or is it a codec issue on my pc?
