I got an xvid encoded video and i want to put it on my smartphone. the problem is when i use tmpencoder to convert it to mpeg format the video come out but the sound is not there. As far as i can tell the audio is in mp3 format but i dont know why the sound wont come through. please help!
tmpencoder? TMPGenc or mainconcept MPEG encoder? Probably that AVI had AC3 sound , which you can read but which your encoder can't. Do this: open the movie with VirtualDubMod and do Stream__Stream list. You'll see which kind of audio sream you have. Recover and convert to MP2 that audio?

TMPGEnc has issues with VBR mp3 audio. Decode before converting, frameserve or use a different encoder.
