The issue exists with live TV, wtv, and ts files. However, avi, wmv, mp4 files play with audio fine. I haven't done extensive testing on various file types and audio encodings (too newbie). I've tested .wtv files that are Dolby Digital and stereo. Both fail to output audio. WMP and WMC have the same issue.
VLC Player can play all of my files just fine. VLC doesn't seem to output Dolby Digital though. WMC on other computers can play the files fine.
Here are the fixes I attempted:
- - I've checked the Volume Mixer. Volume is maxed out for WMC. Within the Volume Mixer, the green indicator next to the volume scale never appears while WMC is playing the files. Its as though WMC simply isn't attempting to output sound.
- I checked my Sound devices in the Control Panel. The Radeon card is set properly as default. Everything looks fine here.
- I attempted the speaker setup within WMC. It fails to output sound, and provides no quality advice on what to do.
- I attempted to uninstall/reinstall WMC and WMP. It did not fix the issue.
- I ran Microsoft's Fix It utility for audio problems (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind ... dia-center). It does not detect any issues.
- I installed Shark007 w/ 64 bit components. I reset all the settings and then used Shark007's suggested settings. This did not fix the issue.
- I restored the system back to a restore point from 3 days ago. This did not fix the issue.
