    - File formats My aim is to make movies for DVD. I've been using WMM to capture and edit AVI files. However, to save space, I want to temporarily store these files to data-DVD's for later re-editing. Is WMV the most suitable format for me to use for this? I would appreciate any help.

    - Subdividing a Project Further to Subject - Project Preview of 12/5/2004. I have converted all the appropriate files as suggested by John Kelly and Graham Hughes and have had some improvement but still unable to save. I think I have to resort to subdivide the project - which I'm dreading as I don't want to lose what I've achieved so far. Have read PapJohn's Newsletter No 8 and can follow the gist but is there anywhere where I can get a detailed step by step guide for this. Thanks Denis Tag: Can't find moviemaker 2 Tag: 29176

    - How do I get sound? First attempt at using Movie Maker. I can import the video from my camcorder but not the sound. Reading the info on sounds says you can do this only with an ANALOG camera. Mine is digital. Is this my problem? Also I uploaded a clip into my hard drive but when I tried to import that into Movie Maker it says the file was not "indexed" and therefore could not be opened.

    - How do you import music from WMP? The only music it seems I can import are ones I've downloaded using (WinXM). I think that's because they get listed in my 'music' file.

    - Codec error??? Hi I've been trying to get wmm to work for ages but nothing ever seems to work I have XP Home whenever I try to import an avi clip it says: The file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Kylie\Rurouni Kenshin - 12.avi 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. Where can I download codecs? I'm pretty sure I've downloaded new codecs before but it was so long ago I can't remember =S Tag: Can't find moviemaker 2 Tag: 29149

    - MM2 and dark image in observer window The camera is a JVC GR DVL 805 Digital movie camera. It came with a cable that fits into the camera on 1 end and the other fits into the computer, a fairly recently built one. It is USB and the other is Firewire. The thing I noticed though, is that the monitor window in MM2 shows the images taken at night very dark, almost black, whereas on the monitor window of the camera they were fine. Is that attributable to MM2? The images look very normal, considering it was taken at night, in the viewfinder and camera flip-out screen. What might be the problem? I am using Windows XP SP2, plenty of RAM and a separate HD for video. Tag: Can't find moviemaker 2 Tag: 29137

    - Video Transitions,effects. Hi. I have used Movie Maker 2.o before and have had 0 problems. Now, I'm still using 2.0 and am trying to add video transitions& effects but each time I drop them to the storyline the program ends immediately. I have plenty of space on my hard drive and my virtual memory is a bit low, but shouldn't affect that as such. Do I need to expand my paging file so I have more virtual memory? or should I reinstall windows xp again? I have service pack 1. The last time I tried to update to service pack 2 windows xp, my computer didn't run efficiently. Any help would be much appreciated! Tag: Can't find moviemaker 2 Tag: 29109

    - Can't burn to CD I see someone else has the exactly the same problem as me (computerilliterate an 21st Dec), so at least it is not a one off. When I try to burn a movie to CD it says it is preparing the movie, gets to 58%, and will go no further. I have to cancel, at which point I get a message that it has not finished saving the movie and am I sure? Any suggestions? I am using XP Home SP2. Or how about a work round? I thought of saving the movie to my hard drive then copying it to CD. However, when saving to the computer you don't get the option of saving in a CD format, Thanks Gary Sams Tag: Can't find moviemaker 2 Tag: 29086

    - No Audio from Video in Timeline Preview I've made a couple of short videos with MM, and I've never had any problems. The other day, I started a new project, and placed a few clips in the timeline. When I previewed it, all of sudden, there was no audio. When I highlight the clip in the folder, and hit play on the preview screen, there is audio, but when I highlight the timeline and hit play, it doesn't play the audio. Also, at the same time, I have no system sounds for my computer. I've checked all of the drivers and audio settings and everything seems fine. I have audio in all other applications except MM and no system sounds (such as asterisk, alert, etc. .) What the heck happened? Thanks, Russ Tag: Can't find moviemaker 2 Tag: 29062

    - OT: soundtrak suggestions please Hi everyone, I could use some suggestions from fellow users. I'm putting together a slide show of my son's first year to give to my parents and in-laws for Christmas. He was born 12/30/2003, and I have some great pictures and video to use. My problem is I'm having a hard time thinking of a good song to put along with my pictures. I've got Louis Armstrong's "Wonderful World", but that's just a little over 2 minutes long, so I need another song (or two) to fill out my aproximately six minutes of pictures and video. I thought about using a few songs from the Baby Einstein soundtrak, but those don't really go well with Wonderful World (and I really want to use that one since a number of the beginning pictures are in the delivery room right after he was born and when we first brought him home). Would love to hear a few suggestions from some of the creative folks here! Thanks, Gary There are 10 types of people in the world: Those that understand binary, and those that don't.

    - XP-SP2 Firewire Speedup Microsoft just posted an update to XP-SP2 to correct a speed setting for Firewire captures. Seems the original SP2 install capped the download speed a S100 instead of permitting the S400 speeds that video capture prefers.
