No audio in PP 1.5

[A***@adobeforums.com]

I'm working on a project, and I can't hear any audio while editing. I exported the movie out, and the audio comes up fine; so I know it is there.

I opened older projects (from the 6.0 era) and I cannot hear any audio in PP either. Seems like a software issue.

I read the FAQ, and changed the playback settings, under the general tab in project preferences, to "audio hardware"; but nothing changed.

My source files are AVI, both from a DV camera (older projects) and DVD source files converted to QuickTime and on to AVI (new project).

I did install Quicktracks earlier today (included with P 6.5, I think). That may have caused the problem. I took it off, but nothing happened.

Any suggestions to fix this would be deeply apreciated!

Could it be as simple as the audio track got turned off? If it were turned off you would hear no audio but it would export.

I have the speaker symbol "toggle track output" set to on... did you have something else in mind?

Here is the information from my DV Playback settings:

Your "Audio Playback" is greyed out, change "Realtime Playback" to "Playback on DV Hardware and Desktop" now your "Audio Playback will no longer be greyed out. I have "Play Audio on DV Hardware" selected and it plays back on the computer unless you have a 1394 device attached.

Good luck--nope this helps

Edited because I had replied then realised that I had misread things.

I can't seem to delete my post but it was rubbish so please ignore this.

Is your DV Camera on and linked via firewire to your computer? I have found that after a capture, after the capture window is closed and the audio is conformed, I cannot hear my audio during playback. I could hear the audio scrub on the timeline, but not during playback. When I disconnect the camera or turn it off, all was fine.
:P

Bill,

Thanks for your assistance. Unfortunately, it did not work.

Pericles,

I don't have any devices attached. In fact, my firewire port is disabled altogether. I noticed yesterday I had a Sony headset connected via USB, but found no audio coming from that either. I pulled it out, reset the PC, and nothing changed.

FOUND IT!!!!

I disabled my onboard sound card in the Control Panel, which I had 'on' for some random reason. Turns out PP was pushing sound to that. When PP switched to the M-Audio sound card, it worked!!!

:-)

Thanks all for your suggestions! Note to others having similar problems, if you have onboard sound (on the motherboard) and a sound card, make sure to turn onboard OFF!

Regards!
