hi,just started using adobe premier elemnts 3
and i can import a video of "snow patrol" and it plays fine(mpeg)
but other videos,"revis music video,lord of the rings film) plays video and no audio
i have made sure the audio slider lever is up and cant see anything obvious to adjust
snow patrol plays without any tweeking
but the others are silent
**update**
all the clips and videos that play fine are mpegs
the silent ones are avi's
is it a codec thing or somthing else
great software if i can sort this thing out
thanks for any help.

Do the said clips play audio OK when viewed in Media Player?

If so, try importing the clips into a Windows Movie Maker project first.

Check you can still hear the audio in the Movie Maker project

Then export the Movie Maker project as a DVI AVI file.

Then import the DV AVI file into Elements

Elements may just be being fussy.....

windows movie maker keeps crashing , but i get the idea nad will try it out on some other software i got....will let you know how it goes

sorted, used winavi to convert them ti "wmv" files and they play fine in elements.
