No audio in VOB file

[martynb1960]

Please excuse my ignorance if this is a dumb question. I don't have a capture card. So, I have transferred some home video footage from my camcorder to DVD using my Philips home DVD recorder. When I import this into a video editing program Arcsoft Showbiz II, I get video but no audio. If I import into DVD playing software I get both. Is there a way around this or am I doing something wrong?

im guessing its something with your editing software. maybe a setting you missed or something? are you reading right off the dvd or the hard drive? i would recommend using dvd decrypter to rip the files to the hard drive before you start editing

Your audio will be ac3 from the philips.
Does Arcsoft Showbiz 2 handle ac3?

I don'y know if arcsoft showbiz II supports ac3, How do i find out, or what other packages do support this. Thanks

im not sure if it does or not. you can convert the ac3 to wav, that will work. check out the guides to the left and there are a few on how to do this
