Video file has no audio after downloading from the Dropbox app
Just recently I have been downloading a video file with Audio but then after downloading the video loses audio and the Dropbox video in server loses audio unless I delete the app and log in again.

So it is an .mp4 file which I have save other files numerous times without any problems. This file while it plays initially with audio. As soon as you try to export it or download it into an email, save it into a icloud file, or save it directly into my iphone ios the audio is taken out of the file. When viewing it again in the Dropbox, it plays without audio unless I delete the app and reinstall the app.

Hi Thomas D.31, just for clarification, does the video play with audio when downloaded on a desktop machine?
Have you tried opening the file in a different video or media player?

I plays on the Dropbox site. But as i download it, it comes without audio. It is the same configuration of video and audio codec which is a .mp4 with H264
