I gotta believe that this is a common problem but I couldn't find it with search. (Then again I'm not a great search word combination choser.) Anyway I'm trying to use AGK to make an avi from my VOB files. The VOB files were generated using ripit4me which seemed to work very well and infact made a DVD playable on the PC (PC #1) I made it on AND on my DVD player. I then used AGK and made an AVI on PC #1 it played flawlessly. I took the PC #1 created DVD and used AGK to make an AVI on PC #2 (My archive PC) the resulting AVI's video was beautifully rendered but no sound. Also there is no sound when playing the DVD on PC #2. The next thing I tried was moving the PC #1 AVI to PC #2. As stated itl worked fine on PC #1. However it doesn't work on PC #2. So my guess is that I'm missing some codec or something. (However a bit disturbing as I have A LOT of material on PC #2 that works fine.) I'm also abit confused as AGK when creating the AVI on PC #2 didn't complain about anything missing. Does this sound familiar? Ideally I guess I would like to be able generate AVIs consistent with the rest of my library. (These were mostly generated by Xmpeg but the AGK seems to make nicer video for me at smaller file sizes.) Thanks in advance.

Hi, and welcome to the forum.

See if FAQ 2.12 (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=72679) answers your question. Its a common issue.

Thanks I'll check it out but another odd thing I just discovered is it DOES run on pc #2 which played through VLC Media Player which is also on that machine.

Hi!it DOES run on pc #2 which played through VLC Media PlayerVLC Player uses its own set of built-in codecs/filters. Therefore, I'd guess that the problem you're having with other players is due to a missing ccodec or playback filter.

I'm guessing that installing FFDShow should do the trick for you...
