No Sound

[Heike]

Hi,

I download german movies from something called save.tv and to watch them on my Mac I have to play them with a VLC player (if I don't use that player the sound does not come thru). If I try to burn it on a DVD, it transfers the picture but not the sound . Any advice on what to do?

Thanks in advance

Once Perian is installed Toast uses it to decode the audio that's in that AVI. Did you quit and relaunch Toast after installing Perian? As long as Perian is where it gets installed then Toast will find it. The only reason I can think of that you'd still not get audio is if the codec used to create the audio track in the AVI is not one supported by Perian or the other Quicktime codecs on your Mac.

 

 

Hi tsantee,

 

You'll see I've posted a reply to a thread you replied on. Investigating further I see another thread you've replied to. You make the following statement: "As long as Perian is where it gets installed"

 

What do you mean by this?

 

Thanks

This may require the Perian codec available at perian.org. You'll need to re-do the project after installing Perian.

I am trying to write a dvd from an avi file I downloaded. It plays fine with vlc, but when I write to a dvd there is no sound. I've downloaded perian and I'm not aware how I should tie that to Toast. Anyway after downloading and installing perian there is still no sound on my dvd recording. Suggestion?
