Thanks for the help.
I followed the link in Praetor's posting. Installed it and it all works like a dream first time. Sourceforge.net has lots of useful things...
I didn't have to change the default settings (I have a similar machine to Praetor's running XP). If you do need to change the settings (to get higher sound volume or whatever), there is a nice icon in the control panel (saying "AC3 filter"). After doing changes, restart your audio/move player as the warning box says at the start.

So I downloaded a movie and I tried to open it with Divx and it said missing Audio Tag 8192. I could watch the movie fine but no sound. So I downloaded the DSPlayer and now I can hear the sound great but the movie looks all distorted. Any ideas how I can fix this?? I open the movie with Divx DSPlayer Windows Media Player and they all look the same.
Hi, sorry for digging up this old thread. I was having the same problems and I came across this forum after I did a search. I have followed the link and installed the AC3Filter. But the sound is very weak. I tried to follow the above advice, but I couldn't even find the filter icon in the control panel. Am I looking at the wrong place? Thank you any help is appreciated.
Hi please ignore my previous post. I don't know what happened but when I opened the file again it worked like a charm, the sound came out beautifully! Thanks everyone for your help.
Just in case anybody looks at this post and has similar problems, you should know that the error message they all recieved was the same, but did not mean the same thing. There are many audio codecs out there, and the AVI container doesn't descriminate. The reason many of them had different solutions was simply because their videos had different audio codecs. Luckily, there is a tool which will give you information about your videos.
Hey, guess what movie download sent me here in search of the audio codec?..............Ghostship ;P Got it working fine in WMP now, but still won't work in DivX Player. Oh well, only need one player, right? Anyway, thanks for the help.
