I removed header compression, still no audio.
If you hook up through HDMI, make sure you select AUTO on AUDIO selection, otherwise the WD may be trying to send un-decoded AAC to the receiver which probably doesn’t support it.
Hey, thanks for your replies, my hookup is the WDTV to the television with an HDMI cable, no external speakers/receiver hooked up, for audio I have -stereo- selected, I played the video with HDMI pass through (auto) selected still no audio, audio works fine when playing on the PC, I guess I will just convert the audio to mp3.
