my tv does not support mp4a or m4a audio format solution please
« on: October 25, 2019, 08:55:11 pm »
Hi, sometimes when playing the vido in my samsung tv, the video plays well in mp4 format, but the corresponding mp4a or m4a audio is notplaying
To avoid this, i convert the audio part of the vido as mp3, and it converts to mpeg layer 1/2 mpga.
When i change the m4a default to mp3, the audio is playing but with low audio quality.
Is there any fix for that
my tv supports mp4 video format, naturally known as h264 format. is it correct
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".

Hi, the tv supported format is enclosed.
i will not say ,it never plays.
But sometimes, it does not play audios, though my tv supports mp4 ,
mp4 , i think contains the audio also in it, as it supports, all video, audio subtitle etc

I'm sorry, I can't help you with this.

Perhaps you should contact Samsung.

Hi, boggins,
what i heard is that mp4 itself contains, video, audio subtitles etc in it. There is no separate audio format for it.
If that is the case, then mp4 should play in my tv also, which is not for why I am raising the query.
hot to know the other things , such as bitrate, mpbs in the picture, so that i could try , that also
By the By , how is Shane, Samson and other moderators.
Samson used to give me clues regarding videos.
can i pm Shane. i could talk with you in this forum
i will also write to mbam about white listing of tweaking.com forum

You PM Samson - I don't think Shane can be PM'd by members and it isn't often I get a reply from Shane to my emails as he's extremely busy.

As for Julian, I don't know what has happened to him as it's been sometime since I saw him last on the forum.
