I have already downloaded divx and still no audio... I did download VLC player and it will play so I guess that allows me to at least watch and listen to the movies...

the question now is how about front row?

Thanks

you need the flip4mac plugin and then rencode the moives to a native quicktime format then front row will accept it and play . good luck XD

No, what you need to do is find out what type of files they are so we aren't shooting blind suggestions at you. When VLC has it open, hit command-i (the apple key is called command), and expand all the tracks until you find the audio track, and then tell us what it says. Go ahead and tell us what the video track says too, while you're in there.
