[MPlayer-users] Re: Still no sound in QT6/AAC movie

[Stephen Stocker]

  I don't have the answer, but I just ran into the same problem yesterday.
I'd never encountered this codec before, but it's used in several of the
videos of the Feb 15 anti-war rallies.

  Anyway, I tried the faad2-1.1 release also, with exactly the same
results. Hopefully somebody can help us both! :)

	Take care,
	Steve
