Racerender3 has no sound for AVI file with H264 video and AAC-LC audio

[zowietek]

Racerender3 lost all sound for AVI file with H264 video and AAC-LC audio. The audio is AAC-LC encoded.
I tried all the ways on the forum, there is no sound still. Is there any way find a AAC-LC decoder so that racerender can decoder this audio?

It's a bit unusual that H.264 would be inside an AVI file; it's much better served inside the traditional MP4 or MOV container. AVI is a 23-year-old format that doesn't accommodate these modern codecs very well, so there have been a number of unofficial extensions or liberties taken with the format, and not surprisingly that makes supporting them inherently problematic. RaceRender combines several different approaches to boost its AVI support, but it can't anticipate every situation.

There are three things to try if AVI files aren't fully working with RaceRender for Windows:

1) Install the appropriate VFW (Video for Windows) codecs

2) Install Apple's QuickTime 7 Player and use the 32-bit version of RaceRender

3) Use a 3rd party video conversion tool to convert it to a modern or better supported format like H.264 inside an .MP4 / .MOV container


Looks like you've already done #1 in this case, so if QuickTime can't decode the audio for you, then you'll need to convert the video file.
