Ive been using a Zoom q8 to capture my band recordings and when i go to edit them in Powerdirector 15 there is no audio in the library or in the preview/edit mode. The audio can be heard on multiple other programs. ive tried all settings and such, and realized "extract audio" doesnt even show up while the file is in the library. Im a bit confused because i make videos and post them to youtube without editing them in this software all the time with no audio issues. when i tried to produce my edited movie it had no audio on the finished product. Help would be appreciated.

Im trying to make an enitre video of the performance instead of 20 minutes per video.

Two things you can try:

Firstly, make sure that you have quicktime installed on your PC, and secondly, if the first suggestion is not successful try disabling Hardware Acceleration Panny TM10, GH2, GH4,

I'm a total novice at this myself, and had a similar issue when merging audio recorded on a zoom H4N pro recorder, with video shot on a camcorder.

Had the 2 files on the timeline, synched and produced...no sound in the output -- daft thing was I had forgot to tick the timeline for the replacement audio so it had been ignored, and of course the audio from the video original recording had been removed once synched.

When I was initially researching the problem before I found my daft simple mistake /solution, I came across someone saying that they solved a similar problem by ensuring the audio recorded was in wav format rather than mp3

Dont know if this is of any relevance to you, but thought would mention it just incase
