Where did my money go?


« on: July 23, 2008, 02:04:07 PM »

Sorry to put this here, but I figure all us race fans are prolly more proficient  at this stuff.

Anyhow I'm using bit torrent on an Apple, streaming from Racing-underground, I get picture but no sound.... any suggestions?

Perian is cool, but still limited.  VLC will play ANYTHING... http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Thanks Gents, I installed VLC and it works like a charm.

So many races to catch up on Grin. I watched BSB at Oulton Park last night, insane! Why can't we have Superbike racing like that in the AMA?

I download from racing underground regularly and have a PC, I use GOM player and it auto downloads codecs.  I never need to search for anything like that or have any issues playing video with audio.  Silly apple people  cheeky

That would only be the case if Honda had the same performance and feel a Ducati does.  Ducati is no apple,  It is passion filled  bacon  Grin

Walk into an Apple Store and yell "PC's RULE!" and see how much non-passion you encounter. Let me know first though, I'd like to be there applause

GOM still makes you download and install them manually even though it finds them for you.  Otherwise they would be breaking numerous laws and would be out of business quite quickly I would imagine. I've never had to look for a codec using VLC and it's XP/Vista/OS X/Linux/BeOS compatible.  That's pretty damn nice.

Hehe, well IMHO BeOS is the greatest OS that was ever created.  Unfortunately, it's not terribly useful for me anymore... Sad
