Son Of A... [looking for audio codec]

I Downloaded A Movie...

(Not To Use On Here, But To See If I Liked It Before I Bought It..)

And It Has Some Unknown Audio Codec That I Need..Any Idea What Codec It Might Be, And Where I Could Get It?

it's probably wma2/divx audio, a shitty codec. Google around for it.

not the video codec, the audio codec. It's divx audio. It's the only audio codec that I could imagine would come up as an unknown codec for you.

I Tried Playing It On DivX. Anyways, The Movie Was 'Battle Royale' With English And Chinese Subtitles, If That Helps Any.

Stop capitalising every fucking word, its giving me a fucking migraine!

It could be one of the newer VB codecs, maybe. Like RMVB or something. But Tab. is right, its probably DivX Audio (shudder) or WMA. And they both suck.

newer vb codecs?

rmvb is just rm renamed to show that it's using variable bitrate.

divx audio is just a hacked wma2, and that's what it is. I already explained how to fix it, google.

Just my noob .02cents...

Most of the stuff I am seeing thats new uses Xvid. And if its an .ogg file make sure you have the latest version of Divx

divx and ogg are totally independent and unrelated.

it may be the shitty version of wma2 theres a tweaked version running around in many online vids.

heres a way to tell
if it does this below

1a. if it is trying to connect to the microsoft site when you open it
1b. looks like it downloads a codec
1c. but then it says you need to restart the player
1d. then you do
1e. it repeats getting the codec
