did you try extracting the audio from the video you imported in iMovie? Sometimes that magically brings back the audio.Originally posted by jmamangun

I suggest you encode the vcd/mpeg file into a more editable file such as Quicktime DV.

hey m not much of an editor but if you have a copy of compressor or cleaner 6 use that to convert the mpeg1 to a quicktime dv or better yet make a dub of your vcd to a dv tape and capture through dv. you could try dvdxdv or cinematize to extract the mpeg files. technically, mpeg files are not editable. there are also a couple of other softwares that could do the job. goodluck.
