From Sony CyberShot cam- mp4's will not play!!!

I am using the software that comes with the new Sony Cybershot 12.1 pixels.

(the PMB software)

And it converts video into .mp4.... So I am then dragging it into Vegas Movie Studio and it becomes just video!!

Instead of seeing TWO tracks coming in Like when I use other camcorders) , I see only one, and it is video. Where is the audio?

If I double-click on the MP4 on my desktop, Windows Media Player opens up and I see no video, but hear the audio.

When I drag the finished video out of PMB software, I see an MP4 and also a file with a .THM extension.

If I double on that, nothing happens with any audio players etc. Also, if I drag .THM file into Vegas, it doesn't know what to do with it. Dragging the MP4 into Vegas results in me seeing video with no sound... and again, I see only one track.

HELP!!!

I have used NON -SONY cameras and NEVER had a snag getting video/audio to play in Vegas.

Ooooops.

Hi DDCD

I know exactly what you need for this little problemette!!!

Checkout the info and then get the DLL file from this forum posting:

Chances are you have had the same problem as I did and that was related to the version of Quicktime you are running.

Hope that helps you - it certainly helped me when I found it!
(the second posting from "musicvid" has all the info you need)
