 |

I have some wmv files that I get no sound on.
| Quote: | Requested audio codec family [wma9dmo] (afm=dmo) not available.
Enable it at compilation.

Cannot find codec for audio format 0x162.
Audio: no sound |
I am using gentoo on an amd64 (Intel Core 2 Quad) with mplayer. I have been searching google, but have found no solutions. mplayer-bin no longer exists it seems, and there is no way to use win32codecs (the USE flag will not enable for me), presumably because I'm on amd64. I thought maybe bindist and win32codecs would work together, but no.
I was using whatever is marked stable, but I tried the 20090530 SVN too (MPlayer SVN-r29330-4.3.2), and it's no good either.
Suggestions? |

| Wow, mplayer-bin is out of portage indeed. I'll file a bug to get it back. This with the win32codecs is the only way to play some types of wmv. |

The package was removed from all mirrors so the ebuild is no use. Also don't try to just put an url to a more current package (like http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tar.bz2) because it will emerge "fine" destroying your normal mplayer (I just did it so that you don't have to).
So now I'm repairing my normal mplayer and am left with no mplayer-bin which I need from time to time. So we're in this together from now on ;] |

| Where are the 64bit codecs ? I am also using 64bit (AMD). I know that they do exist. |

64bit codecs were (I don't know if they still exists in portage, was masked etc.) for realmedia only, a couple of binary files, they are not needed anymore because ffmpeg can now decode real codecs, only formats I can't play are intel indeo and those are rare, did you checked your use flags? Binary mplayer is not longer needed, and win32codecs are maybe, maybe needed. Those .dll days are over  |

| Yes, mplayer-bin with win32codecs is still needed. One example is a video codec MSS1 used in video tutorials. |

Other wmv9's I have seem to be playing audio when I thought they were not. I think it may have been due to Wine being in use at the time blocking the sound, but I'm not sure.
So maybe I am wrong about wmv9 audio not playing with the new version. I still get an error message, but it says ffmpeg will play the audio. I only have that one movie with audio codec 0x162 that won't play now. |
