no sound in imovie

i am borrowing a macbook from a friend so i can burn my recruitment tapes for soccer. im using imovie hd 6.o.3 (267.2). i have 90% of one game on one dvd and 10% on a different dvd. well thats not my problem, my problem is that there is no sound after i import them to edit to make one tape. I have tried importing through imovie and by ripping the dvd to my external hard drive, then importing to imovie and still no sound. how can i get sound? also is there a way that i can burn the final dvd with my pc using nero 6 ot 7 or some other software? this way i can burn two dvds at once, one with my pc and one with the macbook. if there is something im missing when im first importing please tell me. please help cuz im a noob when it comes to macs.

F.B.


p.s. the files of the clips when i double click on them in imovie say vts(numbers which i doubt are important).dv

I've never ripped from a DVD so am unsure of the answer. Perhaps it is just related to this link. Can you play one of the files in Quicktime and hear the audio?

In iDVD you can "Save as Disk Image" under the File menu rather than writing to a DVD first. I would think you could than copy this to the PC and tell Nero to copy it to a DVD as a disk image. I'm not familiar with Nero, but Toast on the Mac can do this, as well as Disk Utility I believe.

thanks for the info. ill try some of the things from that other post.

is there anyway i can get sound without re-ripping, and reedditing my video, cuz that would take a long time. any ideas on why i can get sound. why cant imovie play video ts with sound?
