  Hi,
  I uploaded two videos, one of which can be found here (after tweaking, re-uploading, deleting the whole post and copying into a new one) but there is no sound.

  Can anyone please tell me what I should have done?
  Thanks in advance

  What kind of file is the original video file? We had some issues with audio when the sound wasn’t encoded the way WP.com wanted it, but I don’t think I’ve seen this before.

  It is just mpg – the only thing I did was to change the theme after uploading it the first time. I can play it from my computer fine and the previously uploaded videos (all mpg) are fine but this one just won’t play along…
  When I uploaded another the other night, it didn’t have sound either.
  A freak of nature you think?

  If I were you, I’d change the filename and re-upload it. That might conceivably help.

  Here’s hoping!
