No audio

Hi @TisIDom, could you please check on the website if anime you want to watch has audio? The script only downloads the media to local. It should not cause this issue.

@KevCui I downloaded it from Animepahe and yeah it does have audio on the website.

@TisIDom Ok, I think it may have something to do with ffmpeg. Could you let me know which anime title and episode you want do download? And the version of ffmpeg, run ffmpeg --version to get version?

@KevCui
ffmpeg: ffmpeg version 4.4-essentials_build-www.gyan.dev Copyright (c) 2000-2021 the FFmpeg developers

anime: Steins;Gate, none of the episodes had sound.

Hi @TisIDom, could you please run ./animepahe-dl.sh -s 5d309d45-d290-37dd-2665-0b84fb146830 -e 1 -d 2>&1 | tee debug.log? It will download 1st ep of Steins;Gate and dump logs to debug.log. If you share debug.log in the comment or paste it to GitHub Gist, I will take a look. Thanks.

Hello @KevCui, here are the logs: https://gist.github.com/TisIDom/a94dfeaafad6e4a562155f90d088f082

Also, I was playing around with the episode file and after opening it with VLC Player, the audio started working. Maybe something's wrong with my installation of Microsoft's 'Movies & TV'? What's strange is that all of the other videos on my pc opened with Microsoft's 'Movies & TV' work fine audio-wise. I guess I'll just have to watch the episodes on VLC Player haha.
Thank you for trying to help me out!

Hi @TisIDom, I'm glad that the audio works now for you. It's possible that Microsoft's 'Movies & TV' doesn't support certain audio codec. In the script, the audio codec used in ffmpeg is the default one (auto selected by ffmpeg). From your log file, it's Audio: aac (HE-AAC) . If you want to use Microsoft's 'Movies & TV', I think you could search online and maybe there are some additional codec to install for Microsoft's 'Movies & TV'.
