Audio Problems on the ADVC 110 Converter

[Chrpil]

I bought the ADVC Canopus 110 converter and hooked it up. I tested it with both Windows Movie Maker and Nero Start Smart. Both capture the material, however, when I play the clip back, I get no sound. I understand that when I'm converting there is no sound, but shouldn't I get audio on the playback? I double checked my connections, I have monster cables and they are hooked up. What should I check for?

First check the file with MediaInfo and make sure there is really no audio. A player may just not recognize the audio format, though it should be PCM. You could also try a different program for the DV transfer. WinDV is popular around here and very simple to use.

There are also two different configurations of DV, DV-1 and DV-2. The difference is how the audio is combined with the video. Not all programs accept both configurations.
