• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Good Sunday Morn all.

I have a movie that is a quicktime movie, but the sound does not play. The video works but the sound does not. When I go to WINDOW>SHOW MOVIE PROPERTIES the audio part says:

'ms'

I've installed Divx/ Quicktime Mpeg2 / flip4mac/ and every other codec I could find. The notes on the file say that it's AC3, so this SHOULD be working, yes?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
J
