DVD plaer no sound

[alexxchris]

Still using the old reliable horse, Win98 SE. I install a DVD Player and when
I play a DVD movie, I can see the pictures but there is no sound coming out
of the system. However, when I insert an audio CD, there is sound . (and
there is also sound if the audio CD is play using the default MP in the win
98) . May I know what is missing here. Thanks

You could try this as it helps for some with that problem.
AC3 audio decoder :
http://ac3filter.net/project/1/releases

(I have not downloaded this as my sound card has the filter.)

J ust checking from the link I need to download the AC3 filter 1.46 installer
(then run it) and AC3 filter source code (then extract on the same folder).
Is this correct? thanks

No, you only need to download and install the AC3 Filter installer.

This taken from the guide (available for download on same page)
Download installation package from the official site.
Install the package. (right click and select "run" or double click)
After that filter will appear in the installed programs list of the Control
Panel.
Uninstall filter from the Control Panel. Filter will be deleted from the
system.
System setup:
This section describes one-time settings, which should be made after the
filter installation.
After installation filter has already all settings and in general, it does not
require any
additional settings. Therefore, if you are not familiar with it, do not make
any changes.
It is recommended to modify settings only if there are some problems with
sound.
The most compatible operation mode is 16-bit stereo mode (not multi-channel),
which is the default filter operating mode. This mode is compatible with all
Windows versions
and all audio cards. There is no need for additional settings to operate in
this mode.

If it does not work with your DVD player, you could try this free alternate:
Media Player Classic
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Media_Player_Classic.htm
for Win9x-ME:
http://www.free-codecs.com/download_soft.php?d=3108&s=134
or from:
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_players/media_player_classic_for_win98_me.cfm
