Thanks!!

Hi. I moved this topic to the SG101 Website forum. Can your computer play any sound files at all? Is the volume turned down in your XP control panel? —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

Yes - everything else works fine - MIDIS, MP3s, BIAB . Just can't get anything from this site to play. |

Are you trying to play the files in your browser or are you downloading them first and then playing them? If it is the former, then you may have a misbehaving browser plugin or configuration. You could try another browser. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

I figured it out. I had to install an M4a player then download by right clicking and 'saving link as....'. Works great for me now. I'll probably find a conversion to MP3 to make these files consistent with the rest of stuff. |

VLC is an excellent free media player that works on several operating systems. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |
