9 Series Encoder Pocket PC Profile Error - Not Hearing Audio?
Posted by Jason Dunn in "SITES & RESOURCES" @ 10:30 AM
Video encoders, listen up: wondering why you've been having trouble getting audio on your video encoded using the Pocket PC profiles in the 9 Series Windows Media Encoder? You've changed the video settings to Windows Media 7.1, because there's no 9 Series codecs available, so your video comes through clear - but there's no audio.
The reason why is explained in this Microsoft Knowledgebase article. Someone didn't have enough coffee when they were coding, and they made the default audio setting on the Pocket PC profile 48 Khz. The problem is that the Pocket PC WMP doesn't support 48 Khz! You need to change the default to 44 Khz, and it will work. The KB article also explains how to save a new profile so you don't have to make this change again.
