Fixing
the no sound problem on a Chromebook
Chromebooks
have been around for a while now, and they keep growing in popularity
all the time. As more and more people become Chromebook users, more
questions surface all the time with some of the Chromebook
peculiarities that leave us confounded. Right now, one of those
problems has to do with video playing without sound. If that is you,
then read on my friend, I have the answer you are looking for.
Chrome
states that they support all of the major video types, which are also
called containers. The problem some people are having is that their
Chromebooks (regardless of the manufacturer) does not support certain
audio codecs as they’re proprietary and Chrome/Google would
have to pay license fees to the owners. In general, all MKV
containers are supported, but if the audio within the container is
encoded in a proprietary codec, it won’t play. This applies to
other video formats, like avi, as well, what people did not realize
is that some of the audio is encoded in proprietary codecs, and some
of these simply will not play on your Chromebook.
The
solution is to convert your video into another format/container and
that fixes the problem. There are numerous apps out there, just for
this purpose. The unfortunate reality here is many, and most of these
app's require registration and then they also charge some
subscription type of fee.
It
really depends on how much video you use on your Chromebook and if
converting files is really worth all of the trouble.
What
I've found is, most video works fine without any sound problems on
Chromebook. Only rarely have I found a file that plays with no sound.
If you
want an easy, and FREE way to fix your video without sound problem,
your best option is to use the web app clipchamp.
With
clipchamp you can convert, and fix your video. The downside of this,
is that the process is a little bit slow, and you can only convert 5
videos for free per month. For myself, that's more than good enough,
and I can easily have a file converting on one tab while doing other
things in other tabs.
One
last tip, if you are going to use this clipchamp web app, you should
also be aware that if your machine goes to sleep or your screen saver
pops up, your video conversion will probably fail or just not work.
This is also easy enough to fix, just add the extension to your
Chrome browser called The Great Suspender and select never suspend
this site from the drop down menu. This will allow you to keep a
video actively converting in a tab that you can ignore.
Rock
On!
Extra:
I've read elsewhere that you can fix your video by uploading your
video to Google Drive, hoping that it will work by playing it from
there. I tried that, and it DID NOT work. Don't waste your time.

The
bottom line here is that if your particular video does not work as it
should, you will need to convert the file, unfortunately there is no
easy fix such as an app or extension that will magically fixes these
issues. Even the VLC extension did not work. The only thing that does
for sure is to convert your file with clipchamp.
