Try VLC media player is a free and open source media player and multimedia framework written by the VideoLAN project. VLC is a portable multimedia player, encoder, and streamer supporting many audio and video codecs and file formats as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It is able to stream over networks and to transcode multimedia files and save them into various formats.

"It plays everything!"

The media player that fulfills all your needs. It handles DVDs, (S)VCDs, Audio CDs, web streams, TV cards and much more.

With VLC, there is no need to continually update many different codec packs. VLC comes with nearly every codec built in!

And whats more, VLC can play back your files, even if the media is damaged! Missing or broken pieces wont stop VLC. All the video and audio information that remains can be played.

1. DVD decryption is done through the libdvdcss library.

2. VLC on GNU/Linux, Solaris, and Microsoft Windows has playback control support via libcdio and libvcdinfo. On other platforms, SVCD support varies depending on the availability of these libraries. (Volunteers for adding support are always welcome.). Handling still frames (often used in menus) and switching between different video formats is problematic.

3. On Mac OS X 10.4 or later, VLC is able to grab video and audio from EyeTV applications and therefore all EyeTV-compatible capture devices. The user needs to install a plugin to EyeTV.app in order to use this feature. Guidance is provided in the User Interface. Requires VLC 0.9.0 or later.

4. VLC for GNU/Linux supports V4L2 compatible encoding cards as well as two kinds of MPEG-2 encoding cards: Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-250/350 and Visiontech Kfir.

5. VLC can capture video from internal iSights on Mac OS X 10.5 or lat

K, try this... Open movie maker and simply add a random video, it doesn't matter what. Then go to Edit underneath Video instruments and click Video volume, which is at the far left at the prime. Ensure the sound bar is the entire way to the right. A further trouble could be if you're utilizing track or not. If you're including music to your movies, and sound would not work, then, preserving the random video clip on there, add a random song file.(including the stuff is just so you'll get the option to edit it and be aware of methods to do it later. Now not saving it won't matter) k, if you have the video and tune on there, click on on venture after which click on on Audio combine on the high left. Drag the little sound bar to the left to mute the song and simplest hear the video clip, and drag it to the correct to mute the video and only hear music. If none of that works, then I do not know what else to tell you. Sorry. :C
