This leads me to believe there is no audio in the movie file. I'd like to post a screenshot because of all the info in GSpot, but I can give the highlights here...

If you Demux the AC3 from the original AVI then the likes of VLC should be able to play it ok (unless it's corrupted). I see it's a multiple stream and VirtualDubMod only selects one? http://www.alexander-noe.com/video/amg/ Load AVI,highlight,generate data source from file, then right click on the Audio and extract binary.
It turned out I didn't have the AC3 codec installed or it was corrupted... I only assumed that the 20 or so editing programs I have should have at least come with all the codecs I would need... Thanks for the quick reply! CG
