I have version 5.2 of Pixplay. I created a slideshow with music that is 4min 3sec and it created an mpeg that plays fine on my computer. When I upload it to Youtube, there is no sound. Youtube says I should check the codec, but you have a specific selection for Youtube, so I'm assuming it should be compatible.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Wayne

Hi Wayne

Under View > Options, Other, Advanced, what is your MPEG audio setting? Does changing it resolve the problem?

Changing the MPEG to AC3 seems to have solved that problem. But I have another related to DVDs. The DVD's that I create can be played on some DVD Players with no problems...but on some DVD players, the sound cuts in and out. I thought this might resolve that problem as well, but it did not. Is there a particular kind of DVD player that works better with DVD Pixplay? Age did not seem to be a factor. It played great on a RCA DvD recorder shown over a lcd screen, but a brand new Toshib DvD player had the skipping sound. The two players that I have found that work OK are the Sony and the RCA. Toshiba, Magnavox, and a little cheap noname brand all had the skipping sound. Same media (Maxell and Memorex).

Any advice?

Thanks for solving the Youtube problem.

Hi Wayne

Yes, changing the MPEG audio option is one of the usual fixes for music skipping. The other is to specify the highest quality encoding option (using the Alternate encoder) on Step 3 of the "Burn Disk" wizard.

It is usually related to specific audio files exacerbated by transition or motion effects, so changing your music and/or transition effects is another option.
