I recorded a few clips at a concert and there is no sound and the sound icon is disabled, so it won’t turn on. I’m attaching 1 affected clip, any ideas? When I noticed, I tried another video and they have sound now, it was just during this 1 event.https://youtu.be/nB2hfvC_SWw

Original Title: iPhone video has no audio

If the files truly have no audio track embedded (metadata shows “No audio”), then there’s no way to magically restore the sound—it was never captured. That would mean the mic wasn’t engaged during recording. In that case, the only “fix” would be overlaying audio from someone else’s recording of the same concert.
This is exactly what happened to me. Concert videos, no audio. I updated this morning. This happened last year, too, after an update - it was a bug then. It better not have happened again - I recorded a very special event for a client (I was the only one recording).
Youtube does not help here because it re-encodes uploaded movies. You should put the original movie to some cloud service like iCloud Drive, Dropbox etc and post a link here (moderators will delete the link but users subscribed to this thread will receive it).
You have omitted specifying whether you are utilising a third-party camera application or the built-in iOS Camera app.
I was using Apples regular camera app and did not knowingly change any settings, so I have no idea what happened.
Could it have been because the sound was too loud??
