uk4caster -> No Sound again! (12/5/2011 7:52:02 PM)
I've just installed and reinstalled the game but I get no sound or music whatsoever. I tried installing the k-lite codecs and everything else on my pc, games etc have no sound problems...help!

Which version of k-lit you've installed?

uk4caster -> RE: No Sound again! (12/9/2011 6:07:34 PM)
K-Lite codec pack 800 and K-Lite codec pack 64 bit 550

PS I've also uninstalled and reinstalled windows media player and ie9 as there seem to be some hints they are a problem but no luck.

I had the same problem. Running W7 64-bit. I found that for some reason Windows was not associating the music/voice files from the program to the media player. I went into the sound files in the program's folder and double clicked on the music file to play it. It played. Apparently, this accomplished an association for all the files since they have worked OK in the game ever since. Curiously, the battle sounds always worked. Give it a try.

Well Media Player uses a different api for playing sound and video files. Media Player uses DirectShow, while Panzer Corps uses MCI (Media Control Interface). The problem is that something is broken with MCI and the codecs/filters. Have you downloaded the last version? Why do you have two K-lite codecs? You can take a look at these threads: http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26461 http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26383 http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26917&highlight=process+explorer http://slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29892 http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26822 They have different workarounds.

While I don't use K-Lite and have no sound problems with PC the reason to install 32 bit as well as 64 bit is the behavior of a 64 bit Windows system (at least Windows Vista 64 bit as well as Windows 7 64 bit). The 32 bit codec is fine for all programs started as a 32 bit application and then call 32 bit sound codecs. But if you would only have 32 bit codecs and you would launch a 64 bit program it would need to have 64 bit codecs. So you would need the 64 bit codecs too. Hope that the linked threads give the needed help :)

Hope that the linked threads give the needed help :) You're right. I've never looked for x64 codecs, but it makes sense the x64 players needs them. Unfortunately, I've struggle with codecs so many time, that usually I avoid all these packs, and install only the necessary if VLC player doesn't do the job. I almost don't encode these days. Thanks for the tip, berndn. [:)]
