I know this has been discussed before but I can't actually find anything, anywhere that answers the question.
I have downloaded some torrents that contain flac files.
I have followed (as far as I can tell) all the suggestions given here on what to play them on and how to get various players to play them.
The all "appear" to play them but there's no sound at all (the bar and equalisers show that they are playing and the timer moves on).
Amongst others, I have tried WMP (done all the background stuff), Media player classic, Winamp, VCL, Nero Showtime, Foobar and Quicktime. All with the same results (QT says it doesn't know what they are) Quinessential player, Musicmatch, and Zoomplayer.
I have installed the flac installer from Sourceforge and the flactester there says the files are fine. I just can't get anything to play them (yes, I have checked that the PC plays other stuff).
Anyone have any suggestions as to a basic step I am omitting?
Everything else I have plays fine on something listed above - just the flac files seem to be doing this.
Thanks.
