No sound on video

[toonsign]

Good afternoon,

 

I'm a t-shirt printer so what do I know about videos. I made a bunch of video cd's using MGI Videowave back in the late 90's and I need to make HD video cd's.

 

I ran a sample video, merged the files and in the Preview mode, I had both sound and video. When I clicked make a movie, all I get is the video without sound. When I load the new video in Video Pad editor, I have both sound and video.

 

My question(s) are, what am I not doing? Why do I have both sound and video in the VPE program but not in the finished video when I play it?

 

Now that I am unemployed, I need to make new videos and your help is really appreciated.

 

Thank you,

 

Fred

Hi, I'm not sure if you have your answer, but I noticed that sometimes if I save as .avi the sound doesn't play in the video player. I but when I saved the same video as .wmv it played fine in the video player.

Hi

As you have your sequence playing both sound and vision in VP perhaps you have an incorrect output setting. The following settings work fine for me:......

 

Click the "Save Movie" button on the toolbar.

Click the "Computer/Data" option. (I assume you will be saving it to your PC for a start.)

Enter (or browse to) the Destination folder for the eventual saved film.

 

For the Preset, click the downbutton and select HD 720

 

The other options automatically complete as avi.

1280 x 720 - HD 720p

25 fps (TV PAL)

(If you require NTSC then the custom settings return if you select this format)

Click "Encoder Options"

Set the Video Compressor to MPEG4 (Native)

Ignore the video compression Settings button.

Set the Sound compressor to MP3 (Native)

Set Sound Format to 44100 Hz, 128 kbs, Stereo

Click OK

Click OK on the Video Output Setup Screen to save your avi to your selected detination folder..

Hope this works for you.
