Sony Vegas help

[Tommy Boy]

I've just started with Vegas 9.0a and I import a video from my digital camcorder into it. Problem is, I can't hear the audio. My camcorder records mpeg2 video format and Dolby Digital AC3 audio formats. Why can't I hear the audio when I playback a clip? It worked fine in Windows Movie Maker???

I know some of you guys use it here and I hope you can help.

Yep, everything is good with the sound mixer.


So would downloading a codec pack such as the K-lite codec pack do anything for me being able to import mpeg-2 video with 2-ch AC-3 audio? The video imports just fine, just that there's no audio.

Another thing, how come (free) windows movie maker does it just fine but a pay program like Vegas or Adobe premier can't use it?? I have premier as well and it doesn't work there either. I got Vegas because Premier seemed a little complicated for a beginner such as myself.

C'mon guys, I need some help here, I know someone here knows about Vegas.
