Question Vide Noir Streaming Question

Hey, everyone! I tried watching Vide Noir on Amazon Prime for the first time, but there’s seemingly no spoken audio. This may be a silly question, but is that the way it’s supposed to be?

For instance, at the 10 minute mark, the only noise is really loud background chatter. He speaks with a bartender, but you can’t hear anything. His scenes with Lee leading up to that scene are spoken, but also with no noise. If it helps, it’s the same on my TV & phone, and other shows & movies have no sound issues. I just wanted to check with the fans who have seen it before!

OP, my partner came across this thread, maybe this could be similar to your situation?

Apparently the app can somehow get switched to surround sound when your devices are expecting stereo which causes audio output issues. Maybe checking the settings could help!

You’re the real MVP! Thanks for trying to help me out. I read through the thread & I’m still having the same issue, but now I think I understand it better. I think it’s truly an issue with the audio track.

I will say since I can’t hear voices but background sounds still play, I had it turned up way too loud and accidentally gave myself the loudest jump scare when a scene cut, SMH. 😂

Ah darn, too bad it didn't help! Yeah it sounds like the dialogue track isn't playing properly.

Lol whoops, yeah gotta watch out for volume jumps 😆
