I have had some problems ripping an avi or dvd to mp4. I can get the video to play in itunes and on my ipod, but no sound. I'm using 0.9.8, I select the mpeg 4 AAC in the audio settings and h264 in video and mp4 for encapsulation. When I play the avi or dvd with vlc it has sound, but when I try to play the ripped mp4 file with itunes, ipod or vlc, no sound. I'm using 0.9.8 with Vista. Any ideas?

This sorted out my problem - No audio when playing mp4 videos through VLC.

The problem isn't with playing mp4's through vlc; in fact they play fine if they weren't created with vlc. The problem is that when ripping an avi or dvd to mp4, the resulting file doesn't have sound whether it's played in quicktime, itunes, ipod, or vlc.
