    - WMM won't save in 4:3 Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I have WMM set to 4:3 format in Tools > Options and it says "4:3" when I save a .wmv, but when I play the file back, it's 16:9. This happens with captured video and imported files that are already in 4:3. I can save in 4:3 in other video editors, but I wanted to use WMM to make the file small enough to upload to a website.

    - WMM Freezing - Size issue? Hi, I've been reading the other posts about WMM freezing but wanted to explain my problem: Windows XP Professional 5.1 Service Pack 2 Build 2600 49% free space (13.94 GB free) Available Physical Memory 655.48 MB Virus Scan done 10/20/06 - clean Adaware done 10/20/06 - clean Automatic Window updates I'm making a 5 to 8 minute movie using video clips and music. I've transferred 95 clips to date, all averaging 20 seconds long at the most. I will be adding quite a bit more, using some video clips as audio voiceovers. According to Explore, the saved WMM file size is only 437 KB's. But I'm freezing up more and more when I'm working in WMM. There's nothing I can put my finger on as to what I'm doing or when it happens. I do know if I click on things too fast, that will cause it to freeze up so I've been very careful. This has been happening with more frequency in the past couple of weeks. I had Roxio installed but removed it this week and installed Nero with a Sony double layer, dual layer CD/DVD burner. WMM continues to freeze up but I can't say that it is freezing more or less with these changes. I would appreciate your help with this. If this is a chronic problem with WMM, I may have to scrap 25 hours of work and start all over again with the movie/DVD builder in Nero. I really don't want to do that. Any ideas? (I'll be gone for awhile but will check back later.) Thanks, KP -- KP Tag: Also Installed Explorer 7 and now WMM Wont Work Tag: 54646

    - audio doesn't save with video I saved a movie to DVD and to my computer. Then I edited the project again, adding dubbed sound (and muted the relevant clip) both at the end and in the middle. Now, when I either save to dvd disk or to hard drive, there's no sound at all. Why would this happen? I can use the original save, but it's not as good as the new edit with added sound and clips.

    - Capturing problem Hi, I have a capturing problem on my machine with capturing from a DV camera. The problem occurs when capturing in 'Windows Movie Maker', the machine will remotely access the camera and begin playback but the preview Window appears to have a mosaic effect on it. The captured footage has the same fault. The system is using Service Pack 2. I have also hooked up another hard drive to this machine containing Windows XP Service Pack 1, this works perfectly and the fault evident in Service Pack 2 is not evident here. It seems to be an SP2 issue. Can anyone offer any ideas as to the possible problem?

    - DVD won't play Hoping someone can shed some light here.... I am creating a 'movie' using still photos with background music and need to burn to DVD. I've read much of what's out here for tips, but am still having problems getting the DVD to play. I am using Win XP, MM2, Sonic My DVD Here are my steps: 1. My Movie Maker 2 file (.mswmm) is complete, I choose 'Save to My Computer' in the Task Pane. 2. I choose DV-AVI (NTSC) as the movie setting. Click Ok, the computer does its thing. 3. Go to Sonic MyDVD, click get movies. Import the .avi file just created by Movie Maker. 4. When I preview the movie in Sonic, it's fine. Then I click burn, it goes through the encoding process and after about 15 minutes it spits the DVD out and says 'complete.' However, when I place this DVD in my DVD player (hooked to my TV), it just shows a disk with a question mark next to it. I also tried it in a DVD player at work and it says 'bad disk." Thinking the actual disk was bad, I tried again, but it still didn't work. I have also tried burning both DVD-R and DVD+R and both have the same results. I'm using Maxell brand. Can anybody please help? As far as I can tell, I'm following the steps properly, but it just doesn't work! This is for an anniversary party this weekend and I'm stuck! Thank you!

    - TIMELINE FREEZE/WMM SHUT DOWN AND SAVING PROBLEM Help very welcome with 2 problems: 1 Timeline freezes, seemingly at random and I have to shut down and reopen, often every 5 mins or so. Or I get message saying WMM has encountered a problem and has to shut down. I am importing Quicktime files from my digital camera, converting to .wmv with Digital Media Converter for editing in WMM. Movies are less than 3 mins duration with a few transitions, titles and credits, and an audio/music track. 2 When I save either to hard disk or CD, movie plays back in psychedelic colours, as if given a special effect, rather than real colours. Can solve this on hard disk by converting back to avi, and playing in Quicktime player, but need CD to play with ~Windows Media Player so other people can watch on their PCs/tvs etc. (at least I think I do.) many thanks corinna10 Tag: Also Installed Explorer 7 and now WMM Wont Work Tag: 54520

    - AVI Compression and Quality Hi All I am trying to put together a demo for a trade-show which will consist of a movie (WMF) produced by WMM. The movie will play continuously using Windows Media Player in full screen mode. I am using a freeware tool called CamStudio which allows me to capture screen activity (region or full screen) and save it to an AVI file. I am doing this in 'logical sections' so I have multiple AVI files. In WMM I insert each AVI clip I as well as some still images with a graphic and some text to create my storyboard/movie. Seems a simple requirement but I am having serious quality problems. When I view the AVI files in CamStudio's internal viewer the resolution/quality matches what I originally saw on the screen during the capture process. Similarly when I view the AVI in Windows Media Player the resolution/quality once again matches the original screen contents. When I view the imported AVI clip in WMM the quality is disgusting it is the same even when I create the movie to hard disk (with highest quality selected). I have a 3.0GHz Intel with 2GB RAM, 256MB nVidia GEForce 6600GT graphics adapter and a 250GB dedicated 'scratch drive'. In CamStudio I am selecting quality of 100% and have tried the following compression codecs (Iam unable to set no compression). Cinepak Codec by Radius Intel IndeoÂ® Video 4.5 Intel IYUV codec Microsoft Video 1 Any ideas to my small dilemma would be most welcome. -- Thanx in advance, Craig Tag: Also Installed Explorer 7 and now WMM Wont Work Tag: 54516

    - audio problems when capturing fron an analog camera Can someone explain how one can select the sound card stereo mix output as the audio source when capturing a home movie from a composite/ s-video analog capture card ( only has S-video or composite ports on it). I don't have the luxury of a second camera with firewire passthrough capabilities. I have read where one can opt to select the sound card as the audio source with a capture card like the one described so that the analog camera can have the audio outputs fed into the sound card line input and the video input through the capture card. Makes sense, and would seem to be a lot less trouble than recording the audio separately and trying to sychonize lips to audio in movie maker.
