No Audio In Rendered .WAV

I'm so new at this NLE thing, you might as well say I just fell off the turnip truck. As part of my getting up on the learning curve, I have a 2 minute DV-AVI clip, and I want to use this clip to simply go through some basic editing and then render and author a DVD (on a RW disk, of course). My source camera is a Panasonic GS-400 and I'm using Vegas Movie Studio+DVD 4.0.

The captured AVI file plays fine. All the sound is there. In the VMS timeline, the clip plays fine, all the sound is there. When I click make movie and pick "burn it to DVD", VMS creates the .MPG and .WAV files. The WAV file is 24,125 KB in size. The .MPG file plays fine, but the .WAV file plays a few seconds quite audibly, then I get dead air.

I have raised the volume with the VMS volume slider up to 12 dB, no joy. I have checked the windows volume control, its OK. I have searched through the Vegas documents. I'm sure this problem is operator trouble and the fix will be simple, but I need help to figure it out.

Try and simply render a MPEG2 using the option to save on your hard drive and see if it comes out as it should when you play the resulting MPEG2 on your PC.

"burn it to DVD" is creating a separate file for the audio for DVD Architect.
Have you tried to complete the process by creating a DVD in DVD-A?

Hi Grambo,

You probably need to download and install the Vegas Movie Studio 4.0a update. It includes a fix for a bug which could result in corrupted audio.

Just select Updates from the Downloads menu at the top of this page and click on the link for the Vegas Movies Studio 4.0a update.
