Here is the situation.
I've made DVD disk via VideoStudio 8.0 from DV movie file (type 2, captured via I.link cable from Sony HC-30E)
Imagine 1 hour DV record - 13 GB file, I was dieing there waiting 4 hrs (trying to do some home work, TV...etc.) and when I opened the DVD at Media Player - no sound.....I checked sound folder - empty......I didn't see any options to record with or without sound so I have to idea where I made a mistake and it's really frustrating....when you wait for 4 hrs while the DV file was converting and when you open it - silence
Any ideas?
DVD record, no sound:-((

Most use dv-type 1 to capture, this produces a single video/audio stream, and is easier to render than type 2.
Did you get sound directly after capture?
Does your camera use Dolby Digital(AC 3). A seperate plugin is required for this format?
Right click a clip in the timeline and select properties, whats the audio?
Did you create video file before burning or did you burn using the project?
Read the top posting on this forum, check out the tutorials/help.
Hope this Helps

I had this happen to me yesterday with VS9.
When you burn make sure that the audio is LPCM by checking at the burn window using the little gearwheel at the very bottom of the page to the right of the "settings and option button. Change the MPEG setting to SP which will burn the audio in LPCM.
I don't know why it doesn't use the "Project Properities" in the burn window. Seems like a bug to me.
Hope this helps.

Do you have sound right after you capture it in the preview or if you paly the video in a media player?
There is an option to do video only but by default if your using the NTSC/PAL DVD template that shouldn't picked, you would have to change it yourself.
FYI choosing between DV type 1 or 2 shouldn't make a difference but it couldn't hurt giving it a try. The sound won't be in AC3 if it's a D8 or mini DV cam. I have yet to come across one that records in AC3. There's no need because the tape provides plenty of bandwidth to accomodate PCM.

What audio settings he has selected shouldn't be an issue for playback on a computer regardless of what they are. The only time audio settings are an issue is if you select MPEG audio which will not play on some standalone NTSC DVD players or they fall out of the DVD specifications such as using 44hz. AC3 or Dolby Digital is the preffered selection because it is compatible with all DVD players PAL or NTSC and provides a much smaller file than LPCM giving you more space for video.k7pt wrote:When you burn make sure that the audio is LPCM by checking at the burn window using the little gearwheel at the very bottom of the page to the right of the "settings and option button.

Re: THANKS!
Forgot to mention, if you don't already have one get a RW disc and make up a short 2 or 3 mnute clip and work from there. You'll be able to test with relatively short conversions and burns.artyom wrote:I'll read your suggestions from home PC tonight and see if any helps.
Guys, thank you very much!

The issue he stated was that playing it using Widows Media there was no audio.
Mine would play fine on my Sony Home Theater but not on Media Player on the PC as it burned in Dolby. No audio when played using Media Player.
I changed to LPCM and bingo, everything plays everywhere.
My PC doesn't have support for Dolby.

Most common soundcards have dolby support, I would think that it would be harder to find one that doesn't have it. Also I would assume installing an encoding AC3 codec would supply also supply decoding for playback. I have stuck my foot in my mouth beforek7pt wrote:

so if that's not the case you can try this.http://sourceforge.net/projects/ac3filter
BTW artyom try playing it in a standalone DVD player to see if that's the case.

You gonna be lauphing!!!!
Poltergeist....
After reading all suggestions suddenly I decided do nothing and just open the record and see if it's still in 20-ish style movies:-) And....THE SOUND IS ON:-)))) Both Media Player and Real Player open it with sound, like there was no any problems yesterday at all:-)
Anyway, thanks to everybody for your help!
