<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>I run Win XP Pro & my OS is as
current as the automatic updates allow. Version 2002, SP3 + current
updates.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>My computer is a Dell Inspiron 5100
Laptop with a Pentium 4, 2.66GHz processor and 512MB
RAM</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>Earlier (several weeks ago), I downloaded VLC
Media Player 9.4 so I could convert a *.flv file to a *.wmv
file. I achieved success.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>Today, I again ran VLC to convert another flv
file. <SPAN class=196195821-29012009>Each time I tried to accomplish
the conversion, the output file contained <STRONG><U>NO</U></STRONG>
audio. When I closed the VLC application, I got an error
message. Thinking a newer version software might solve the problem,
I downloaded and installed the 9.8 version today.</SPAN></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>The 9.8 version version behaved the same
way. (No audio in the output file and on exit, an error message.)
Below is a screen shot of the error message:</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>The only way I achieved success was to use a
DIFFERENT converter to convert the flv file to an mpg file, and then use VLC to
convert the mpg file to wmv.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=196195821-29012009>It is very likely that I did something wrong,
but just in case, I felt you should know what happened with my
system.</SPAN></P>
