Audio issues with iMovie

[josh bear]

Hi

Please can anyone help? I have three clips of a home movie. All are on the same hard drive and when you double click on them they all play both video and audio. However when imported into move all play video but only one plays the sound.

Any ideas on how the address this?

thanks

Josh

What are the formats of the three videos(.mov, mp4, avi etc) and which format doesn't play the audio?

You can use Avidemux http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/download.html to re-encode only the audio track.
Choose Video Output: copy, Audio Output: AAC (lav), Output Format: MP4v2
