Kodak EasyShare Video to Windows Movie Maker
My daughter needs to make a movie for school and the only video recorder we
have is on our Kodak Digital Camera. Microsoft Movie Maker makes a much
better video, but it won't accept the .mov file extension. Can I just change
the extension? If so, how???? If not, can I change anything on my EasyShare
setup to make the extension automatically go to mpg or anything else so that
we can use Movie Maker? The editting on EasyShare videos is so sloppy and
they won't be able to play it at school without loading Easyshare software to
their computer. Tag: dvd Tag: 59550

I tried to insert a wma file and got the following message...
The file C:\Documents and Settings\Sanctuary1\Desktop\01 Titles.wma is not

What does this mean and how can I fix it? Tag: dvd Tag: 59548
Disable Movie Maker
I use my PC for editing. I use AVID Express Pro for my editing application
and every time I turn on my deck to capture a tape Movie Maker starts up.
It's a pain to have to shut it down all the time. I'd like to send it away
permanently! Ideas? Tag: dvd Tag: 59546
LOSSES IN CUTTING/PASTING DV?
I understand that when I transfer DV directly from my videocam, I have an
exact copy on my computer of what I had on tape.
If I use WMM to cut & paste, (resequence) portions of my original DV, and
then save the finished movie back to computer in DV-AVI format, are there any
losses involved?
In other words, does WMM simply copy the portions from the original DV file
to the 'final' file, or does it convert the DV into some other format
internally and then recode it back to DV for the save step???
Thank you in advance for your replies!! Tag: dvd Tag: 59544
Can't Save Movie but Could I With The Vista Version?
I have a very large project I completed. About 800 jpg pictures, each with a
transition. Each picture is set to play for 2.5 seconds with a transition of
.5 seconds. The entire show is about 40 minutes and the entire show is set
to music.
Of course, it won't save the movie. I want to save to DVD and first it
saves to the PC but it won't even start to save. Eventually after no
progress the error box comes up.
My PC is brand new, 2 Gb of memory, 250 Gb hard drive, Pentium D 915 2.8GHz
(Dual-Core) processor with Intel VII.
I have a new lap top I bought as a gift and it has VISTA. I'm wondering if
the Vista version of Movie Maker would handle this where XP doesn't? If so,
how would I transfer from one PC to the other?
If that's not a possiblity, I guess I have no other choice than to split the
project? Thanks!

No Picture in monitor when playing the timeline. Help please
Hello all.
I have used Moviemaker a few times before and have never experienced this.
I have captured some clips from my camcorder and put them in my collection.
When I play each individual file from collections it will appear in the
monitor, when I drag them into the timeline and play from there the screen is
blank. I can hear sound but no visuals.
Can someone help me please as it is driving me mad.

Website... restructuing the sections about capturing video...
When I started my website, it was mostly about mini-DV camcorders, which I
sorted into separate pages by brand name.... then by model numbers on the
pages
The info has grown stale as the mini-DVs are getting to be few and far
between... to freshen it, I'm totally restructruing those sections and
pages. The menu now has a single branch for Cameras and Capture Devices,
with two sub-branches...
1 --- 'Types' is a new one, into which I'll move existing info and add new
stuff... it has pages for Film, 8mm tape, Hi8 tape, mini-DV tape, DVD, Hard
Drive, Digital Cameras, Webcam, and Cell Phone.
2 --- 'Brand Names'... has the older pages with whatever info is left as I
move info into the new pages... some model or brand specific issues will
remain on those pages
Over the weekend I got a chance to play with my son's new Sony Hard Drive
camcorder... a model DCR-SR42 that records MEG2 files to a hard drive... I
tested the conversion process on his laptop and mine, to get the files to
DV-AVI format and into Movie Maker. I added the conversion info to the new
page about Hard Drive camcorders.

What file type should I use?
I have read several topics on this sbject including the very informative
articles by Graham Hughes but I'm still confused.
I'm using a Desktop with 250GB HD, 1GB Memory, DVD Burner & firewire cable.
If I capture using DV-AVI and check the box for "Create Clips when Video
finishes" the system doesn't break the file into clips as it does when I
select WMV. The unedited tape is about 15 min. to 20 min. long. After
editing it will be less than 10 minutes. What am I doing Wrong?
Another question. Should I click on the "Stop Capture" button when the
entire tape is captured? If I don't the tape appears to continue running
till the end.
Your help will be appreciated

Audio problem in timeline.
Audio/video clip from Canon Camera .avi format plays great in media player,
plays great in the "collections" preview screen after importing into MM2.
Drag to timeline and the audio becomes tinny, with sort of a high pitch
squeal in the background.
All kinds of resources and problem happens on desktop and laptop.

Vista's DVD maker, Re-Rendering with MPEG2
I don't know why if I convert my video to MPEG2, Vista's DVD maker
insists on Re-Rendering it again anyway. I didn't have that problem
with my old PC (Using Sonic/Roxio, which BTW does not work with
Vista).
Also Vista takes twice as long to re-render it as my other software
does.
I really don't like to have to buy all new software.
Note: I tried installing Sonic but it removed my DVD drive!! (I had
to do a Vista rollback)
Vista's DVD cannot use mpeg2 using a separate audio file. (You get no
sound)
I have to render them into a single MPEG

MM2 is Grouping my photos
I made a movie in Photo Story 3 and saved it to my computer (.wmv). Just
photos, transitions, and music. I tried to open it in Movie Maker to see if
I could tweak one of the songs to fit the ending of the photos (which I had a
hard time doing in Photo Story) and it opened the movie in "groups" of
photos. Meaning, photos 1-8 were all under one clip, photos 9-30 were under
another clip, etc. It opened 6 clips, all with a different number of photos
included in them. I can't edit movies made in Photo Story 3 in Movie Maker?
What am I doing wrong?

Codec Problem, PLEASE HELP!!
Okay, so I cleaned out my computer about a week ago, then I go to import a
video file in Windows Movie Maker and it says:
[File name] cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file
is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and
install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to
import the file again.
It's a .wmv file and I don't understand why i can't fix it. I'm afraid that
I accidently deleted the codec when I cleaned my computer out, is there any
way I can get the codec back?

Screen output as video capture device?
Sorry, this is probably a bit silly, but I'm new to this MM-technology.
Is it not possible to record events in a window as a video-clip? - I have a
TV tuner-card, could I use that as intermediary capture device and have
MovieMaker record it from there? Reading the documentation isn't really
enlightening about this specific subject - I understand that I need a
properly configured Capture Device, but I'd assumed that to include the
screen.
If anyone could name an alternative, I'd be mighty pleased too!
