so ive recently started using torrents, but 2 out of the 4 movies ive downloaded have no sound. what is with that?

could be the file type you're trying to play on a bare-bones windows media player.

if it's a .divx file you will likely need a codec, or use the .divx player. do a search for codecs you'd need to play that specific file type, and you should be fine.

Yes, its because you don't have the correct codec.

However, divx/xvid is the visual codec not the audio codec. It's probably not encoded with mp3 but something like ac3.

Install this (http://www.cccp-project.net/) and you'll be good to play almost anything.

download vlc player

will play nearly everthing that can be played and no need for any codecs
