 Windows’ default 

“MPEG Audio Decoder”

  (as part of quartz.dll) can often fail to properly decode 

MPEG1 files’ audio: resulting in Windows’ MediaPlayer giving corrupted sound on playing MPEG1 files – 
this can be fixed by making MediaPlayer to use a different MPEG Audio Codec Filter, such as the free 

MADFilter.ax

” (

http://sourceforge.net/projects/maddxshow/

) for Windows XP and Vista, or the Microsoft 

MPEG-1/DD Audio Decoder Filter “

msmpeg2adec.dll

” for Windows Vista/7, etc.: after registering these 

filters using regsvr32.exe, set their Merit value (using free tools such as RadLight Filter Manager or GSpot 
etc.) higher than the Merit value 0x03680001 of the default MPEG Audio Decoder, then reboot Windows.

To use third-party DirectShow-enabled software such as VideoLan(

 

http://ww.videolan.org

) etc. to 

access the uncompressed analogue video on PC, click the “

Disable M2B Device

” button on the

Note in this
