Is there no sound with the video for LTC?

Post by Gypsy In The Palace »

When I put the CD from SI in, I'm taken to the screen where I can select either "Listen to the song" or "Watch the trailer video." If I choose the listen option, I hear the song, but if I choose the video option, I get silent moving pictures. Is there no sound to that?

It seems to be doing exactly what it says on the screen. One button to hear the music. The other button to see the video. Not sure why they'd do it that way.

I dont understand why they give a "blurp" of the video and then think someone wants to install AOHELL on their computer.. :evil:

I had the same problem when I played the CD itself, but if you "explore" the CD through My computer you can open the video with sound.

The problem with that logic is that nothing ever works the way it says it is suppose to. :wink:

Hey, for those of you who were having problems like I was, 12Volt has the solution. Go into either My Computer or Windows Explorer, and click on "SI Swimsuit (D)" The (D) may be different for your machine depending on the drive of your CD Rom. Look for a file called final_buffett_video_ibm. Open that file, and you should get the video with sound.

Rick-Want to go through one of the biggest hassels of your life? Try cancelling AOL. I spent 30 mintues on the phone trying to get the guy to understand that I didn't want 3 free months; I wanted to cancel my service! He finally understood but ended by telling me I was making a mistake! He then speed-read my cancellation number and all this stuff about my service being cancelled effective on a certain date, etc; he read it so fast I could only understand about every third word!

Gypsy-
I agree on AOL making it hard to cancel.
The only reason that I have it now is because I got a free year with my new computer but I'm sure I'm gonna go through the same thing when it's up.
