DVD Plays Movies, But with no sound!!!

Question

Hi, I have a Dell 8200 laptop with XP Pro and a Toshiba SD-C2502 (1D13) DVD-ROM. When I try to play some movies which have been ripped to DVD+R I hear nothing. The DVD runs smoothly and I can see the movie plays but with no sound. I have used both WinDVD 5 and PowerDVD but I have the same problem. Is it a hardware or a software problem? Could someone help me to find a solution? Thanks in advance.

what happens when you use a 'normal' commercial dvd?

you might want to go to avicodec.com and download their software to check your movie and see what kind of encoders you need. i think you might need to download a audio codec called ac3..
