Audio Problems with MPEGs.

[Guest]

I've been having a problem with the audio playback when making videos with
MPEG clips. The MPEGs play normaly in Media Player, and in the collections
area of Media Maker. When I move the MPEGs to the storyboard/timeline, the
sound just becomes static.

This only affects MPEG files; WMVs and AVIs are not affected. And only the
sound is affected, video is fine. I did check the Tools > Options menu, but
that only had video filter options, and I need audio options.

Any idea how to correct this?

======================================
Sometimes Movie Maker has issues with
MPEG files, your best bet would be to convert
them to a different fomat.

Have a look at the following article:

As a work around, would it be feasible to record the sound as a wav, from the
MPEG while playing in the Media Player? Then in MM2, mute the bad sound file
and insert the wav sound into the temeline.

I tried it and it works. I tried it using a good file so that I could check
how the sound might synchronize with the video. I had to adjust it by moving
an initial picture in the timeline. A little trouble, but why not. I used
RIP Vinyl to record the sound. Thanks for your answer.

I was able to correct the problem by using Radlight's Filter Manager to make
sure the codecs were registered and prioritized properly, then used the Tools

Options menu to select the right codecs to get the sound and video working

again.

Thanks for the help.
