Audio Playback

Post by Crimson Drake »

Hello.

Not really sure if it's a bug or not but after updating (uninstall followed by an install) to XnView 1.92, I lost ability to play mp3 files in the Preview pane.
I can highlight (selection) .avi file and it will play/preview it or if double click it will open it in the View window ... but when I try to do the same with .mp3 file nothing happens for both operations.

The setting are there to start playing audio and video in preview and use XnView to play video and audio in View window.

Thank you for the help.

Not sure which codec ... I have Winamp, Quicktime and DivX installed. How would you change the codec for XnView? Winamp is default to play .mp3

Thanks.

Programs generally use their own embedded decoders for the mp3 format. I believe the mpeg.dll file in xnview's plugins folder is what it uses to decode mp3s.

No mpeg.dll is for mpeg video.
I means 'change your codec' in your system?
