I want to play a music strip with a video in the video editor but the video has no music when I play it. I've rendered it but it still doesn't have sound. How can I render and play the video with the sound track.

  • $\begingroup$ Welcome to StackExchange. We need more information in order to solve your problem. For instance: do other sound clips play properly? Have you tried reencoding the sound clip in a different format? Maybe you could provide a screenshot of your sequence and settings? These, and any other details, will help people to give you a helpful answer. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 7, 2015 at 9:37

    $\begingroup$ Please add at least a screen shot of you render settings / output. Which audio codec do you use? Do you hear the music when played in Blender? Did you try to play the video in another player like VLC? $\endgroup$

In blenders preferences under system you have a few options for the software used for sound, this may help playing sound from blender's VSE.

For the output video you need to check that you have selected an audio codec in the encoding options.

    $\begingroup$ Any idea why I can't get sound even after setting the audio codec? $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @Michael the output settings are part of the render output settings which you can find in the properties editor $\endgroup$
