    Try playing them with Winamp or dbpoweramp.

    Go download the k-lite mega codec pack. And just use the standard install option, this should sort it for you.

    EAC3 is not supported by any of the regular codecs including AC3 Filter.

    In order for EAC3 to work you will need to mux it into a container like MKV (latest Haali media splitter supports EAC3) and provide a decoder, the only free one I know of is here but must be compiled.

    Latest versions of MKV Toolnix build 2.0.2 or later support muxing EAC3 streams.

    Alternatively if you have WinDVD HD you can use it's EAC3 directshow decoder or Sonic Cinemaster Audio Decoder 4.1 & 4.2 also apparently work in Graphedit as well.

    thanks for that 8t8
    very useful site , the compiling thing seems a bit complicated for me so i think i ll leave it for a while
    i have windvd 8 the hd edition
    but it wont open the mkv files that i have anyway so i cant test it for that
