MXF file....Audio Problem

[bon3407]

I'm using the video lan player to log an interview I did using an mxf file.
I can see the video, but cannot here it on my mac... imac x 10.5
Can anyone help solve this problem?
Thx

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Where can you see it? and where cannot you?

[bon3407]

sorry... poor english. I cannot hear it.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

YOu can see it but you cannot hear it?

Can you give us the messages?

[bon3407]

I haven't received any messages. the clip plays without sound.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

If you don't explain a bit more, you will not get help.

[bon3407]

I don't know what else to explain. I'm using a Sony memory stick pro in a media card reader attached to my imac.
Because Sony doesn't provide software to read the card on a mac... I'm using the Video Lan player to read this mxf file.
The VLC produces the video, but no sound. I've contacted Apple, but they have no answers.
I don't get any kind of error messages.
These clips are interviews done with a Sony Xd camera... for a tv station in North Carolina where I work.
I'm trying to log the interviews for news story's.
Thank you for your consideration.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

If you don't give us the messages with verbose set to 2, we can't do anything.

[bon3407]

Thanks anyway... I'll try other means.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Seriously, what is so complex in giving us the messages?

[bon3407]

What messages? If you're referring to error messages, I haven't received any. If it's something else I don't understand.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Messages windows.

[bon3407]

I'm sorry I don't understand 'messages windows.'
Can you explain? I appreciate your help.

[bon3407]

I'd like to once again ask for help.
I posted the messages to the problem as asked... but no reply.
Is anyone using the VLC player on a Mac to view MXF files produced by a Sony XDcam?
I can see the video, but cannot hear the audio.
Thanks!

[jakth]

I am seeing the same thing with Win 7-64, vlc 1.1.9 and with the same files running vlc 1.0.1 it works fine

I am capturing direct hdsdi, and for some reason it doesn't like the xdcam audio.

it almost looks like a mismatched sample rate issue with 48khz since if I jump ahead in the timeline the audio is good for 1 sec then mutes again.
