    Hi, newbie here, hope this is the right forum.

    I took concert footage on my mobile and on the advice of this website downloaded the VLC Media Player so I could play the MP4 file on my PC.

    I get the video but no sound whatsoever.

    What have I done wrong??

    thanks

    See if GSpot can identify the file, by dragging it onto GSpot and if it shows the audio as being present.

    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/v26x/GSpot270a.zip


    This (example only) shows the audio as AC3 and a system codec as being installed (although VLC has it's own codecs independent of the system).

    Hi

    Ok - I think I may have done this now - the Audio section says CODEC - samr: AMR Narrowband and Stat - Status Undetermined.

    Aaaarrrggghhh I just want to put the clip on YouTube !!!

    thanks for your help but I'm just not having any joy with this at all. I'm just getting a giant Q with a question mark in it.
    I'll maybe contact Samsung becuase I don't think it should be this difficult.
    Sadly I am gigging again in 2 weeks timne so the same is going to happen......
