no sound when played in wmp???

[mitcheal]

i just got a pvr500. i had some major issues with installing the drivers... found that uninstalling zonealarm, installing drivers, then re-installing zonealarm worked. i got the card working great. my only problem is that when i record a show and try to play it back through media player (default player when double clicked through explorer) there is no sound. but if i take the same file, burn it to disc, it plays fine on my dvd player... any ideas?

thanks,
mitch.

It sounds like the default MPEG audio decoder on your machine isnt doing its job. You could try installing another one to see if it helps (for example, installing PowerDVD).

update. i recorded a few more things, and now it won't play sound when played through gbpvr. also, when playing a file through gbpvr, it locks up the CPU and i have to forcefully kill the app. actually, does the same thing in wmp now that i think of it... could this be attrributed to the audio decoder?

any ideas?


i'll try a different audio decoder in the morning...

Maybe.
