No Sound in hd video I have the Lumix zs7. No sound when playing video clips in WMP. What have I done wrong? Fixable?Thanks for any advice.

Mine works fine, too, in WMP under Win7 home premium, on Toshiba laptop bought a year ago.

yeah, mine looks good but has no audio in realplayer. maybe someone will answer. i get audio with the software included but may not always have access to it when trying to play back.

It sounds like you both may have the same problem: not having the right codecs installed. Do a Google search for K-Lite Codec pack (it should be downloadable from free-codecs.com or CNet) and install that. I would also suggest getting Media Player Classic (aka: MPlayer or MPC) - this shouldn't make a difference, but it's a much lighter and simpler media player compared to both the Windows Media Player and Realplayer. MPC is downloadable from mpc-hc.sourceforge.net.

I haven't used MM as I'm a Linux guy but I had the same problem: mplayer was no audio, vlc would sometimes play them, sometimes would hang, sometimes with repeating audio and Parole was fine. But the root of the problem is the Quicktime format MOV files. It's a hack, but there's a way to put the ROAM2 firmware on the ROAM (basically rename the ROAM2 firmware filename). They now use MP4. As a bonus you get 60fps and a LOT of options. It's like having a ROAM2 without the lock switch basically.

Try with and without the image stabilization to see if that makes a difference. Also try at lower resolution. I just did "Fast 720P" with a clear picture, I also had record when moving so it only never recorded more that 5 min at a time. I have not noticed that problem yet, but I have notice jumps(screen goes blank?). Could be the card. Make sure it is a class 10 card. I just upgraded to 64gig SanDisk Extreme and will see if it makes a difference.

How do I even get the video onto a dvd? When I play it in Quicktime, it plays sound but no movie. When I use Windows Media Player, I get video but no sound. What am I doing wrong?

I tried this and found that the video was great but the sound was not. Some of the words would be cut off at the end. I need up returning the unit

It says it does but I don't hear any sound when I play video back on my computer. I don't know if it's defective or I'm doing something wrong. Pictures are very good.

I have a JVC mg555, and I just changed a vid file ext to .mpg.WMM imports it, but is not reading the video part only audio. Weird. I am still working on it.

Hi Giorgi, sorry to hear this. This camera has a built in speaker that when playing back recorded videos, sound should come out. -Vincent

No problem w/ sound quality but more a problem w/ soft focus a lot of the time in normal photos'. Just not as "sharp" as in past models of the Lumix. The ZS19/20 seem to be the last models that were still sharp. Hope that helps..."

yes, I guess the only thing is that mine is malfunctioning when downloading from memory to the computer, it does it but there is no sound from videos, only if tplayed in the device itself but not when I downloaded into my comp. sometimes the focus is flurry for 2 seconds and then goes back to being ok.

Hi Mike and Oscar, I'm having the same problem in trying to get my .avi file captured from a Flip Video Camera; Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 only has a black screen with sound. I had to send the .avi file to a friend with a Mac, who had a program to convert it to an .mpeg file; then it works. I'm searching for a solution that I can solve on my own with my PC.

If you have a memory card with an audio file on it, like a Possibly Awkward or Jay Z song, you can put it in this guy and have it play over the speakers! They work quite well for such little guys. But this camera/clock is designed to record maximum video footage length, and to do so, they removed the 'record video with audio' option. That's all it means, that it records video without audio. I hope this helped! Have a wonderful day!

I just ordered the ZS7. I first tried the F80 but returned it after finding pictures had a remarkable amount of compression artifact. All the files come out around 4 MP (max) and faces start to look like pastel when you zoom in. That said, it does perform better in low light. If you don't care about HD video consider the F70, which I read is better. (For that matter, the ZS3 is supposed to be better, but I want the bells and whistles.)

I hear a hammering sound when I record video as well...that's a real drag because the video itself looks great. What have people done about this?

I have been tracking this issue also, but I don't have the new camera yet. I just put together s system with the same processor and memory, and installed Sony VMS 10. From what I have heard, the problem is capturing the video from the camera in it's native format. Once its in a suitable format, it will handle the video.
