downloaded video file, has buzzing audio when put into encoder

[efiste2]

I have downloaded a videoclip of the net in AVI format, and when i try to convert it to dvd Mpeg using TMPGENc express the audio is just a random buzzing noise, with no actual sound from the video clip itself. the picture is fine but the audio is just a loud buzzing. is this some sort of copy pretection/anti piracy thing.........the downloaded clip plays fine in avi format using windows media player. Has anyone any suggestions

tmpgenc doesn't support all audio types. use gspot or mediainfo to determine what format the audio is in. you may have to demux and convert the audio to pcm wav first for tmpgenc to accept it.

Can i use another program to convert the AVI file. Also can i demux the AVI file, and if so can u suggest a freeware program to use, i have just tried doitfast4u and that only seems to accept DVD files.

AviDemux -- which can convert to just about any format and edit as well as demux.
