Video And Audio Captures Ok...but...

[OC Terry]

Hi, Gang! Please forgive me if this has been addressed, but I looked and don't think I saw it anywhere. In using EVD Plus, I successfully captured both video and audio from a Video8 source to my computer's hard drive. However, I transferred the captured file to a flash drive to show a friend what I did (before he gave me 20 other Video8 cassettes to convert), and when we tried to play back the file on his laptop, there was no audio. I'm sure there's a simple answer...what say you on the forum, any thoughts?

 

Thx!

Do they play ok when you play them on your computer?.

[OC Terry]

Yes, video and audio play back fine on my computer!

Yes, video and audio play back fine on my computer!

 

If they play back from the stick on your computer then there is nothing wrong with the recordings and the problem is with your friends system.

Maybe he should turn up the volume or "un-mute"

Hi, Walt! I played the clip from the flash drive on another computer--my wife's laptop--and it worked just fine. Not sure why it won't play on my friend's computer, though it's an older Core 2 Duo machine. Maybe the sound drivers aren't up to par. I did check the mute and volume on his computer...still "no joy." But at least I know the clip has a solid audio track and that's what I wanted to make sure of before converting all of my friend's old tapes!

 

Thanks again!

Terry

EVD 3 offers a multitude of Export settings...

 

Without knowing which one you use it would impossible to make a guess!

 

BTW ~ Good that you ran a test first!!!
