No audio when streaming video

Amazing! Thank you much, it was driving me nuts, just didn't understand what the problem was, not that I do now but it works!

Thanks again, you rock!

Thanks so much for this tip. I've been "working around" this problem for ages--copying URLs & pasting them into Winamp, etc.

So, if you have no sound or no audio when using windows media player for streaming, but it works fine for regular files (video and audio), try the above fix. It worked! (you do have to restart WMP for the change to take place.)

Thank you! It helped me too ^__^

Great fix, thanks. This one was driving me nuts

I have had this problem for a while now, I have looked on the web for a solution, in vain. Yesterday I got high speed internet and so I am thrilled that this problem is fixed. Thaaannnkk Yoooouuu!!!

Thanks so much for your hard work. I hadn't been able to hear the audio portion of videos from several websites for almost a year!
Thanks again

btw - how did you figure this out?

do i type c:/ first?

if you are asking how to get to the registry when you mention directory in your question, its fairly simple:

Click Start>Click Run> in the window that opens type the word 'regedit' and hit enter.

You should now see the registry editor open.

hi i noticed u seemed to know bout media player problems. i am able to hear the audio in live streaming video but my video suddenly disappeared. i was able to view before but all of sudden i can't. any clue as to what went wrong and wat i can do to fix it? thanx so much in advance!

Folks, Great solution, really appreciate to all members who helped me close this issue. I was driven nuts when all other sites streaming was working but for one particular site the audio was not working. This helps. Hats off and keep up the good work.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\NodeCLSIDs\{95037DA1-6ED9-4B27-8CFF-9AD3DFB0B2F2}]

Where exactly do I find this folder.

I'm having the same problem with windows xp pro. I can download a video and play it back w/sound but if I.m on YouTube ans try to play something I get no sound.

Hey dude!!

if u find this
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\NodeCLSIDs\{95037DA1-6ED9-4B27-8CFF-9AD3DFB0B2F2}]

now
double click on 'Auto Insert" on the right side of the box.

Change the Value from "1" to "0" and click OK.

You should be set.

Fixed my audio problems with streaming video.

Try this as well
I had this problem for a while and tried everything I could think of, I also tried your solution (i.e. changing registry setting for the WMP) but it did not work for me. Yesterday when I was looking at the WMP settings (Tools; Options; DVD; Advanced ..) I realised that ffdshow was setup as the filter for audio on it. I uninstalled ffdshow and the streaming Audio problem was solved.

I installed ffdshow almost a year ago but the streaming Audio problem actually started just a few weeks ago, so I think one of the recent updates of ffdshow caused the problem. I have installed the latest version of ffdshow and everything is working ok now.

This is a very old post/thread.

ive been trying to find what the problem is with my laptop for a while now. only sound plays on windows media player.. You Tube videos do not have any sound, and neither do any other internet files. Even games.

This maybe easy to resolve but it hard when your only 15.

Hope you can help as i find it very hard to cope with it..


many thanks

"Windows Media Player" then reinstalling it. It can be removed using "add/remove programs" (XP) or "Programs and features" (Vista) in control panel.

You can get it here:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/10/default.aspx

Note "Hardware requirements" if it doesn't match the ones you have then install a previous version.

This thread is untracked which means I'm not getting up dates for it in my Email. In other words, your on your own.

Your solution saved me literally.

I had this audio problem for 4 months now and when i tried your solution i heard sound again!


Thanks so much for this, really appreciate it.


For the notes: My problem was that i had no sound in Internet explorer when viewing some tv channels i used to watch.

My system is Windows Vista, SP1. Windows Media Player 11.


Again thanks a lot.

many thanks to the solution. It is great

For those of us who aren't registry saavy, what does this particularly control in this situation?

I have been searching for months for this answer. You are the greatest.

Make this registry change and I'm pretty sure it will fix your problem. If it doesn't work, you can always change it back. It'll work.

Go to the following registry folder:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\NodeCLSIDs\{95037DA1-6ED9-4B27-8CFF-9AD3DFB0B2F2}]

double click on 'Auto Insert" on the right side of the box.

Change the Value from "1" to "0" and click OK.

You should be set.

Fantastic. Thank you.

Your solution fixed my problem.

I have no idea how you figured our the solution but it works! I searched for, found and implemented this fix in less than 5 minutes so thank you for saving me so much time in fixing a problem that I probably would've otherwise spent a long time trying to fix

By the way, the video that I was trying to view was on the EWTN network. I added this for search purposes.

UNBELIEVABLE!!! Thank you sooooooooooo much!!!!

Your solution solved my problem.

Many many THANKS

I have been trying to fix this for months, worked a treat. Thank you soooo much =)
