No Sound in VLC 1.1.12 64 bit 10.6.8

[JaimeSharp]

I Am not getting sound in VLC 1.1.12 as has been the case since the release date i have tried multiple movies and multiple players such as VLC 0.86 ,Quicktime etc and all files play successfully in those, it is annoying as i like to keep upto date with my software though no action has been taken as of yet the only response i recived was to try vlc 1.2.0 which i don't have accesses to or possess the skills if i found it to compile it . hopefully someone will know of a fix or release an update as i am stuck with a product i cannot use.


Any Help would be greatly Appriciated

Just some basic thoughts...

Under the Audio menu, is your Audo Device set to Built-In Output?

In Preferences -> Audio, is it Enabled?

Are you using analog audio, but maybe have something connected to a digital S/PDIF connection? Maybe check to see if Preferences -> ALL -> Audio -> "Use S/PDIF when available" is deselected.

it is set to built in output no spdif connection on an imac using the inbuilt speakers as i do not own other ones Spdif is unchecked , no headphones are plugged in etc ,audio is enabled in prefs but i am not getting sound

Thanks for the suggestions though
