audio problem with windvd plat. 5

[christopher]

i don't know what the problem is, i just cant get any audio with my windvd platinum 5.0 -- i'm not a complete id***, i dont have my speakers on mute or anything, and the volume is up on the program, but i'm just not sure what's going on.

i've had this problem for a while. i basically still use windvd platinum to capture shots of certain films i've created on my own, but i'd really like to be able to watch/listen too.

i have powerdvd as well, but it's so sketchy. but im less concerned with that. i'd be more content if my windvd plat worked to it's ability.

thanks for any/all help.

any FREE alternative programs that can play videos/sound and capture pictures is also helpful (link provide please).

they must play .VRO files

i can play these in WMP... but its horrible. i cant capture anything (but at least i get visual/audio), and the slider on the bottom only shows all the discs are a minute long.. when they're a good 15-28 mins each.. so i have to F w/ the slider and position it weird and somehow diff parts show up and it sucks.

Hi Chris i am not sure what is causing that problem, might be related to audio codecs. Try reinstalling WinDVD. Also try MediaPlayerClassic, its free and can take snapshots.

btw pm'd you about your signature, its too large see the rules.

i actually wound up getting windvd plat 7 and it's just fine, i like it a lot.

dont like wmp classic that much.

now as far as editing .vro files and converting them..

don't know of any programs that i can edit .vro files with

or any that convert them to avi or mpeg, whichever is best to burn to dvd.

that's my next problem.

i hate the fact that i have to work with .vro files in the first place, but that's all the camcorder converts to.
