    I downloaded AC3ACM and have three files in the 64 folder:

    AC3ACM.acm
    AC3ACM64.inf
    Install the 64-bit codec.bat

    Clicking on the "install" .bat file produces this message:

    An error ocurred while copying the AC3ACM.acm. Cannot copy file to destination directory.

    I want videos to play in Virtual Dub with sound. How do I do this? Should I be using the x86, not the 64?

    edit: the x86 bat install produces same message.

    Tried that...for a millisecond, I saw a box appear then immediately disappear. Opened a Matroska video in Virtual Dub. Same audio decompressor not found message.

    edit: .avi files do play with sound now in Virtual Dub, not Matroska (.mkv).

    Have already done that. But, I did it again just now (install the ACM download) . Any mkv file will not play with sound. Same "no decompressor ..." message.

  23. You need to use all 32 bit components with 32 bit VirtualDub. You need to use all 64 bit components with 64 bit VirtualDub.

    Forget using 64 bit VirtualDub. It's not as stable and not as many filters are available in 64 bit versions. Use 32 bit VirtualDub and 32 bit filters.

  24. Copy Matroska.vdplugin file from plugins32 folder of 32bit VirtualDub
    to VirtualDub 64bit plugins32 folder
    and try again

    Ok. Then, all my original questions remain. Open Matroska file, click play, "no decompressor... ".
