Hi @Antonio-Henriques,
Please post the file's detailed attributes using "MediaInfo".
An MP4 file can have a different audio codec than the 'usual' AAC.
Instructions if you need them

Your screenshot shows PAL DVD video with an AC3 audio track.

Simplest thing is to convert to MP4 in Handbrake -- it has presets specifically to accept your video format.

Shutter Encoder will also do the same kind of conversion.

If there is a way to do all in Vegas... it would be easier

But if it is not possible Iwill do that, thanks

@Antonio-Henriques

I’m really curious as to why this file would be a problem in Vegas Pro. Would you share the actual file on a cloud share and post the link here (or message me privately)?

@john_dennis, i've sent you a PM with the file link

@Antonio-Henriques I have the file.

  1. Was the file captured on a camcorder that used DVD as the recording media?
  2. Did the sample file come from a DVD that was authored and burned by you or others?

Thanks John, for your time

 

Regarding the file

1. Yes, cam corder, but not DVD, it was a tape camcorder, 8mm

2. I burned the file a 7 or 8 years ago, directely from the tape to my pc using a usb RCA adapter

@Antonio-Henriques
On your first screenshot I do see audio on the track.
If that gives no sound did you try to use another audio device in Vegas?

@j-v, The audio track shows nothing, regardless of the output device

 

Now I tryed another thing...

I did CTRL+SHIFT and double click Vegas icon to reset all

And now when I drag the same file, and it drags only the video track

And properties do not show a audio stream

 

The file is still ok and playable outside Vegas, with audio

I was successful in getting the audio and video into Vegas Pro.

Before I show you any of the 97 different ways to do it, I'll tell you why I think you have the problem.

SWAG

I think the video clip is a portion of the many files from a DVD that were divided in to 1GiB segments in order to be written on to the DVD Media.

/SWAG

Action

If you still have the DVD that the file(s) came from, copy all of the contents into a folder on a hard drive in your system and use a DOS command to recombine the files into one file.

@john_dennis thanks for your time again

But the files were not from a DVD, but from a VHS tape that I digitalized to my PC using a USB dongle

john_dennis wrote on 2/1/2024, 5:23 PM

@Antonio-Henriques OK

This is Howie Duit using Shutter Encoder. No video was harmed in the making of this video. The audio was decoded to LPCM by Shutter Encoder .

Note to @VEGASDerek

Please comment on why Vegas 14 can reliably extract audio from DVD files using VTS_01_0.IFO...

... while Vegas Pro 21-208 fails to extract the audio.
