Wonky sound solutions
Authored by: Lectrick on Mar 08, '05 06:00:14PM

I had an issue where VLC would play ear-screeching speaker-killing sound, but only with certain movies. After quitting the app I'd lose sound till I played something in iTunes. Turns out that VLC on newer Macs (in my case a dual 2.5ghz G5) has an incompatibility with the AC3 audio format and the optical audio out (I believe), which I was using. If you download the latest beta of VLC, however, it fixes this issue!
