| 1197733 | 2011-04-27 12:14:00 | I have a video file of Joanna Lumley's Catwoman documentary which calls itself PDTV.Xvid.AC3.MVGroup.org.avi. Part of that I assume means its pure digital television and Xvid is a DVD codec? AC3 is a mystery. AVI is a standard video format? Never been clear on that. Anyway, it plays beautifully in WMP and in Intervideo WinDVD 5...but silently. No sound at all. Not a sausage. What am I missing please? |
