Fifth Gear 11/01/04 No sound!?

stylelab · November 6th, 2004, 03:47 PM

I downloaded the last Fifth Gear episode (11/01/04) and I have no sound while viewing on Quicktime. I have downloaded all other episodes (Top Gear and 5th Gear) without any problems! Do any of you have any problems with this last episode? Do you have any solutions for me so I can hear it?

Thanks!

I know the sound format changed but my first question would be, why the hell did you use Quicktime?

I guess you own a fucking macintosh?

well there you go, you found your answer. images/smilies/wink.gif

No not really, but if you don't have a Mac just use WMP, it'll work. It's not a codec issue it's prolly just that Quicktime sucks too much to support that new audio

BTW, I don't want to scare you off or sound mad, I just hate Macintoshes, they're evil images/smilies/vampire.gif

Yes I have a Mac, a Powerbook in fact! And no I wasn't offended! hahaha

I tried with WMP and now it tells me: 'Cannot play back file. The file format is invalid.' Would it be a codec issue if you say the sound format has changed?

Thanks!

I finally got it working with a program called VLC Media Player....! The image quality is not as good as Quicktime but at least I have the sound!

Thanks for your help! But if any of guys have any ideas on how to make it work with WMV or Quicktime? Give me a shout! (by the way, i checked and I have the latest version of both).

You can download K-Lite Codec Pack and install
http://www.k-litemegacodecpack.com/i...wnload&type=kl

I don't install Media Player or BS Player (Mega Codec Pack), because Windows Media Player Series 9/10 works fine. I also didn't install "MS MPEG-4", because when I did, I couldn't watch the vids in fullscreen, not fluid...it may not do that w/ your pc if it has a fast processor. You can also get the Mega Codec pack which has QuickTime and RealPlayer Codecs, so you don't the actual programs just the codecs, and you can play the file in WMP. And also at the end of the install when it says to check the file types, don't check any, they have crappy icons, so just leave them unchecked, unless you installed QT and RealPlayer codecs, then it's ok to check those at the bottom. Those have nice icons for the files. images/smilies/wink.gif
