I'm sorry, I don't have an immediate answer, but I do feel your pain. Seriously firsthand empathy when sound goes missing for video editing. :) Am writing to suggest trying to run it from a terminal window to see if that helps at least give you some error messages to work with. It's fresh in mind because I did that earlier with Thunar file manager just to run as root user. Ended up accidentally uncovering some (missing) flash related whoopsies I had caused to occur. :) Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with duct tape *
