Sound issues in Vegas
« on: April 19, 2008, 10:20:45 AM »
I downloaded Sony Vegas 8.0 to edit the text buffers out and use some of the nicer effects. However when I bring the AVI's into the editor evidently something edited the sound from the videos out. Any other media playback device plays the sounds fine.

Even tried rendering the film to see if it would show up there with no luck.

Any ideas?

I have the same problem...I don't really worry about it though because either I put my own sounds into certain places where I think they would sound good or I have background music playing and it would clash.

How are you importing your avi files into vegas?

Try using the drag and drop method.  Open up the folder where your video file is found, click on it and drag it onto the Vegas timeline.
You should see the video file and sound file appear on the timeline.

I have several methods of importing the files.

Drag/drop, import files button, and the auto find feature.

In order for it to work I have to run the files thru movie maker and encode them then Vegas sees the audio. Cant imagine this is helping vid quality and its wasting alot of time.

I took the link out because Photo bucket absolutely destroyed the vid quality.

I'm still new with Vegas, but make sure you have an audio track (2 preferably) underneath your video tracks when you drag it to the timeline.

If there's no audio tracks, I think it might cut out the sound, but again I haven't played around too much yet.

You sure about this?

I've never had a problem like this in the last 2 years of using fraps and Sony Vegas.

You should look into the setup of SV.  Something is not right.  Maybe reinstall fraps, or try to see if an update is available for fraps.  Also check to see if your soundcard is updated in the drivers area.
