Fresh setup (2.6.2) - no audio (AC3 disabled?)

[Donny Bahama]

I've just setup NextPVR (2.6.2) for the first time. I followed the guide as much as possible and got some channels on Live TV. On most channels (actually all that I have tested so far), when I right click the video and go to Audio Stream, my choices are "Disabled" and "Track 1 (AC3)". Some channels also have "Track 2 (AC3)". Selecting any of the AC3 streams makes no difference -- and I think I know why... When I go to Settings > Decoders, AC3 Audio is set to "Disabled". And the drop-down offers no other choices. What do I need to install to enable AC3 decoding?

http://ac3filter.net (the lite version is sufficient)

of course if you had ready the "Getting Started" sticky posted right at the top of the forum (and linked in my signature below), you'd know that.

Thanks, that fixed it. Sorry I missed the bit about AC3filter in the Getting Started post.

Good grief, I made that post at 9:13pm my time... normally I don't get so jerky until after midnight. Sorry for the matronly scolding, I must've been in a mood. Glad you have it working.
