Mac Forum / Applications / Media Player / September 2005No sound when playing Windows Media Sample.wmv
Very strange problem. G4, 10.4.2, WVP 9 plays the subject movie without any problem. My mate's iMac, 10.3.9, WMP 9 (origianlly installed months ago and reinstalled today) plays the movie silently. /Library/Internet Plugins/ on both machines contains the Windows Media Plugin 9.0. QT movies play with sound-so speakers and sound settings work. I sent her another wmv file which plays video and sound on my machine and it plays silently on hers. When running the movie, GET INFO shows Windows Media Audio 9 codec is media property. Any ideas? What exactly should I delete before reinstalling? Follow-up. Just saw the hint in "Windows Media Player and Mac Os10.4.2" post about checking the audio output level with the Audio MIDI Setup utility. I'll give that a try tomorrow. Hopefully, it's that simple Problem fixed. However, the audio output was at 44.1, so I did the following: deleted all WMP prefs, the internet plugin, and the application. Repaired permissions, reinstalled WMP, repaired permissins, launche GarageBand, launched WMP and changed some prefs, relaunch WMP and reset the prefs to defaults, quit it, and ran the sample movie w/SOUND. Don't know exactly what fixed what, but the problem's solved. |
