Thanks for the reply Michael. Yes I have an archived version. You mention "You can extract and re-encoding the sound track with the correct parameters and it fixes the problem on existing files". Could you tell me how I can do this - especially as a batch job on a folder of files? Also is there a "media properties viewer" type program that would show if the audio is encoded incorrectly?
Thanks again.
