mkv file not playing audio

[wbb]

hi i just bought a netbook computer with an intel 1.6 atom processor 1g ram 250 hard drive and windows 7 starter and i'm trying to play an mkv file and i'm getting no sound i'm using media player classic. Any help would be appreciated

maybe you're missing the necessary audio codec?

i'm happy with shark's codecs - give them a try

one question without going into any explanations.... can atom play 720P mkv's?

Hi folks,

@ UncasMS ... Don't most people say don't install Codec Package per say ... just add what you need as you use different programs!

@ atifsh ... I understand it plays with the right codecs but still way "Jerky"!

they may do and 99% are those users who have dozens of autostart entries caused by unintelligent software installations and running a couple of hundred windows services because they install and keep anything and give a damn to care about important aspects but pretend to be wisecracks by shouting out not to use "codec packs"

shark has done a more than decent job with his packs and what is being installed interacts way better than average joe would be able to achieve when installing manually

Hi UncasMS,

Q1: So you prefer Shark's package over K-Lite and CCCP!?!?

Q2: Also, how about the story that I see on several other Reputable Forums saying to just install FFDShow and let it go at that!?!?

I suppose also add AviSynth and XviD and that should basically do it ... right!?!?

Thanks,

G!

FFDSHOW may not provide necessary splitter (like haali) so nowadays i'd say: ffdshow is ONE part but one needs other components as well

and yes i prefer Shark's
