>Well, it seems your cam creates a file that it claims to contain audio >but forgets to actually put any audio in. Sounds plausible. It's a webcam that's audio-enabled, but I think our customer unplugged the microphone. To save bandwidth it probably doesn't send silent audio packets. >You could try -dumpstream and see if that file has the same issue and >make that available to use. When I downloaded a sample of the stream with wget it played fine (silently of course), but that's probably because mplayer could seek to the end. >You could also try -demuxer lavf. No luck. It uses the ffmpeg codecs, which don't work with this stream. >Otherwise you will just have to use -nosound or get your camera >manufacturer to change their code to make it create files that make >sense, i.e. either >1) they claim to have audio and actually have audio or >2) they don't claim to have audio in the file when they actually don't. The camera manufacturer is Linksys/Cisco. I don't think they'll fix it by Monday!
