Sound Issues while watching Videos

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I've been having sound issues whilst watching videos on Windows Media Player.

WMP VERSION: 9.00.00.2980
Windows operating systerm: Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp1.020828-1920 :
Service Pack 1)

Videos are provided at http://www.bigbrother.3mobile.com.au, and whilst I
tried to watch them, I could see the video, but I could not hear anything. I
never can recall having issues with my sound card, and music files, games
sounds (etc.) still work and are audible. Also, I watched a live web-steam
from the above site, and I could hear and see everything properly and no
problems occured, but I still had problems hearing videos.

I went to the site FAQ, and followed its directoions, but still, I could not
hear the video. I went to numerous sites and followed many different ways to
fix the sound issue.. I lowered the hardware acceleration, I changed the
streaming protocols.. and other numerous ways. I checked the properties of
the video, and it mentioned something about the audio codec being "Windows
Media Audio 9", so I actually did a "rollback" and went back to version 9 of
Widnows Media.. Although, this still did not solve my problem.

Now, after trying many ways to try and fix my issue, I went to watch a live
web-stream (which has always worked for me, but the videos hadn't) and now, I
can see everything, but now not hear anything, which includes MP3's etc..
I've messed with sound "things" (excuse me, I really know very little about
computers) so much now, that I've just made the problem worse, and I don't
know how to go back..

The issue is probaly simple, but I am at a point where I am extremely
confused and annoyed..

Thank you!
