No audio after conversion

[turb0]

i have an avi that i encode to mpeg2 using TMPGEnc.
after it encodes i have 2 files. one is an m2v file and the other is a wave file, but in the wav file there is no audio.. and when i burn them to dvd there is no audio still... wat is wrong? how do i get sound.. ive got video, but no sound.. how do i extract the audio from the avi file?
is there another program i can use?

It may have the true audio on another channel. Load the original video into Gold Wave. It will show all the channels, and which have audio on them.

but in the wav file there is no audio.. and when i burn them to dvd there is no audio still...

What did you expect?
Could be that the audio in the AVI is in a format TMPGEnc can't handle. Open the AVI in VirtualDub, extract audio and convert to WAV.
Use this wav as audio source when encoding.

Here's a pretty easy to follow way of converting your AVI's sound to wav using Virtualdub.
1. Open your AVI with Virtualdub by going to the file menu then open.

2. Go to the Audio menu and select "Full Processing Mode".

3. Go to the File menu and select "Save WAV" and choose a file name. The conversion should take a couple of minutes.

If the wav plays fine, post back here for instructions on how to take the WAV and add it to your mpeg without re-encoding the video.

Hi, if you want a really easy way to extract your WAV or AC3 try this little gem.
I's so simple it's almost idiot proof. ffmpeggui

I know what you mean about TMPGEnc, you just know it's going to be a pain in the ass just by looking at the geeky, nerdy name of the app.

cheers

Hehe. Tsunami MPEG Encoder. Right. Trust me, if you see a tsuami coming your way, it probably will be the last thing you see in this life.

More like Engrish, it's a Japanese app.
