No sound using AC3 - 2007/04/17 14:05 Hi,

Please bear with me I am not that technical! I have some AVI files that support AC3, I had to download a codec for my PC so that the sound played when I used the DivX player - it worked so the files are good.

How do I play them through the Pinnacle showcenter 200 that I have using SwissCenter - do I need to upgrade the showcenter somehow or convert the files to some other format?

Cheers
Phil

Re:No sound using AC3 - 2007/04/17 15:55 Hi,

I use a showcenter 1000, and it can play ac3, so I think the 200 can it too. Tray this


http://your.showcenter.ip:2020-set_amx=ON

than go back to the showcenter startscreen (with home on you fb) and go too advance config, there to sound config.

Use dolby if you have a AV Receiver or analog if not.

May you can hear the sound (i fixed it on this way).
Maybe you must use the newest firmware befor, I do it, so I dont know if you must or not.

The problem is you can see this option for sound, only if you register it at pinnacle an pay 5 Eu to get a code an use it with in the originnal sofware to put it on the showcenter. The Web adress do the same but only until you shutdown the shocenter. But for fixing this problem ist enoug, you only use it one time.

Well, the option in the ShowCenter config screen disappears, however you can keep on playing AC3-sound.


@roca83
Maybe unnecessary to ask, but you're sure you followed Jjules entire suggestion? You may also look here and here. It should really work.

Re: Re:No sound using AC3 - 2008/11/25 05:31 I have the same problem with ac3 sound with ADS MediaLink players where I can only get audio via the optical output.

This is OK for my main system but not for the bedroom one & there are no configuration settings on the MediaLink.

Anyone know of any utility that will convert avi's encoded with AC3 to avi (or mpg) to mpeg audio ?
