MP4 video clips have no sound in iMovie 10.1.8 on High Sierra
“I have several MP4 videos downloaded from Facebook. They played fine without any sound issues using preview and also in QuickTime Player, but once imported to the latest iMovie 10.1.8, the MP4 clips lose sound in the middle. I’ve googled a lot for a solution, but without any luck. I’m running iMovie 10.1.8 on macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 on MacBook Pro with Retina display. Any suggestions on this?”

Try restarting your computer and opening iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys, and then selecting to delete preferences in the box that appears.

IMovie is the native video editor from Apple for Mac devices. If you’ve ever wanted to start video editing with a simple program, this one will be a good choice. Like other Apple products, the tool works across synced Apple devices and libraries, serving as a full-fledged home movies or family videos portal. Is iMovie free with MacOS Sierra? According to Apple’s web page which indicates the apps included with Sierra (macOS Sierra: All apps included on your Mac), iMovie is included.

If the above does not solve it, there may be something about the audio codec in your video clips that iMovie doesn’t like. iMovie likes MOV with Apple InterMediate Video Codec and AAC audio codec. Open your MP4 clips in HD Video Converter for Mac and it will help you export AIC/AAC .mov files for editing in iMovie smoothly.
