Hello all,

I searched far and wide on trying to get AC3 sound playing in Flash and Divx though all of my web browsers. I tried on Safari, Firefox & Chrome. I can wait till it's fully buffered and download and AC3 sound plays through VLC just fine. When I search the web I find others have the same problem with no solution, but the majority of Mac users have no problem. I also found out this is not necessarily a Hackintosh problem, real mac's sometimes have this too. Anybody have this problem, any suggestions or solutions would help. :thumbsup_anim:

 

Thank You,

 

Tony
