    - After SP2, still have MM 2.0 I have windows xp sp 2 with all latest updates, but my Movie Maker is version 2.0.3312.0. I did a search for moviemk.exe which i believe is 2.1, but it is not on my hard drive. I think this happened because I did not realize 2.1 was already on my computer, and download 2.0, so maybe it overwrote 2.1? not sure... So, how do I get MM 2.1? Can I download it seperately? If not, should I download SP2 and reinstall it again to get mm 2.1 (sounds risky and a lot of work). Please advise.

    - Help - PS3 & MM - poor quality Just used PS3 for the first time and find it's great. Here's my problem. I am making an 8 min or so movie for work. I started with PS3 using 81 photos while an mp3 is playing. The preview and saved file works perfectly. This is 4 mins of the 8 mins. I need. I then imported this wmv into MM to add other clips and pictures. Before I did any other additions, I saved this as a movie in MM to view it. The problem is it runs choppy with the zoom effects very poor. I have been making mini movies each year for awhile. In the past I end up adding the movie file into powerpoint. This year I am being more creative and find it will be impossible to add to PP and intend to burn the final production to a DVD. What solutions are there to add to the PS3 imported wmv into MM while adding the remaining 4 mins of clips I need and saving as a smooth movie to burn? Or am I asking too much from the software?

    - Movie Maker lost the abiliy to capture in DV-AVI from a camcorder Windows Movie Maker has lost the ability to capture video from a DV camcorder in DV-AVI format. The DV-AVI selection is now grayed out and not available. It worked when last used about 1 month ago. Rebooting windows does not help. Windows automatic update is on. Movie maker automatic codec download was off. I turned on automatic codec download and imported an AVI video file on the computer without fixing the problem although from the wait before starting the import I suspect a new codec was loaded. The operating system version is Windows XP Home Edition Version 5.1 service pack 2. Movie Maker is version 2.1. How do I restore the ablilty to capture camera video in DV-AVI format? -- John Zweighaft Tag: How do you do Chroma key (i.e. green or blue screen) in Movie Make Tag: 65333

    - TITLES and CREDITS One Problem I have is. I have a problem dropping text to be overlayed on a video in the exact spot I need it. I drag it with my mose and it will put it at (lets just choose a number) at 1:00:30 or it will let me put it at 1:01:07. Is this a function of my mouse not being sensitive enough? Is there anyway to drop it more exactly? Also I remain dissatisfied (as much as you can be with a free program) with the choice of title and credit placement. is there a link to somewhere that has better title placement?

    - Problem getting error writing video file My son is trying to save a video to file and keeps getting an error that really doesn't make sense. This error occurs sometime even before it tries to write the files, and at other times, it writes the file 10% of the way, then gives the error. The error message indicates there are are 3 possible problems: 1. There is not enough disk space. 2. The source files are missing. 3. The destination where the file is being written to is no longer available. None of these 3 conditions are true. The hard drive has 44GB of space, and the size of the video file we are trying to save would be about 10MB. We have also tried writing the file to a SD card just to test this situation, but we get the same error. We are able to play the actual video through within Movie Maker itself, which I am assuming means that the source files are avialable. Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

    - How to " select it all " and put it in the timeline ? I can select all pictures at the top level ( like in the WDW collection), but each and every video needs to be dragged so I have to scroll all the way up - to the left - select it. then drag it to the lower right ,etc. Is there ANY way to speed that up ? After spending an hour or two getting all the pictures,videos from a recent trip into Collections in WMM, I have " East Coast Trip" and under it " Florida" then in that I have - WDW - Miami - Keys etc then GA --Savannah --Hilton Head then SC Charleston , etc ( so "left screen" is now less messy) what I'd like to do is: click on "East Coast Trip" "Select All" and drag it to the timeline. Seems like a common "thing to be done". Thanks, Bobb Tag: How do you do Chroma key (i.e. green or blue screen) in Movie Make Tag: 65276

    - Saving project and reloading on another PC I am working on a project on two different computers. I imported the video clips, edited as necessary till I was partially done. I then saved my project. Later, on the second computer, I reloaded my project and my timeline shows the clips, but with red Xs.I am accessing the same resource on both PCs, that is, all the imported clips and files are available to both projects. One difference is that the reource maps to drive E: on one PC and to drive F: on the other. What is the best way to solve this?

    - Find lost untitled project or recover yesterdays work?? Is there any way to find an untitled project - other than basic stuff? I have spent 15 hours on a project that I can not find. It was saved and re-opened many times. I started this project a couple days ago, every time moviemaker froze and I had to close it, when I opened it again it would say searching for.... and my project would come up. I even hit the save button a couple times, but never named it - Because it was fine and I wasn't done. This morning when I opened it and worked on it and it did its freeze thing and I closed and re-opened it - it was fine. Then after a couple times of that, when it opened - it opened the last NAMED project I was working on. The named project was the end part of the new untitled project. I have used searched, used restore then un-did restore, read 50 websites, read help here.. I have looked everywhere. This may not actually be a moviemaker question, more of a Where do I find something I did 5 hours ago. Is it possible? Thanks to anyone who can lead me in the correct direction!!

    - quicktime mov to avi to WMV . WMP plays them fine but WMM still says bad codec New camera output = .mov files. I didn't know QT rather than AVI until I used it on vacation and since I bought it at CompUSA and they went out of business - I own the problem. Currently: I used Total Video Converter to get into AVI format and Windows Media player opens the avi files fine. YET, when I now try to add them to a WMM project the message says " cannot find codec to PLAY file ...". I have the "autocheck for codec" box checked. So this "codec that it 'looks for'" has to be at at certain site at microsoft.com ?? How would I know what it "knows about" and how would I specify which to use ? Would like to fimd out how others with same situation handle it. Rather than reinventing the wheel, any recommendations of .mov to .wmv converter. I went to avi thinking - that works fine, until now when - after converting 30-40 mov files to avi , NOW finding out that I wasted my time. And as long as I have this camera it will be an issue for me Tag: How do you do Chroma key (i.e. green or blue screen) in Movie Make Tag: 65247

    - Scrolling text goes black during DVD playback I've made a movie, using Movie Maker 2, where one section near the middle has a title block with a narative running as scrolling text (like the Star Wars intro.) This scrolling text runs fine on the computer during playback. Movie is then saved and burned to a DVD using Nero software. The DVD plays fine in other players until the scrolling text is reached. The screen goes blank after a few seconds of showing the text and, as soon as the text shot is finished, the remainder of the movie plays fine. What do I do differently to make the title block play to completion? Tag: How do you do Chroma key (i.e. green or blue screen) in Movie Make Tag: 65246

    - frame by frame advance won't work I have used Movie Maker for 2 years with no problems. For our business we need to be able to import a video and then frame by frame advance until we get to a specific frame then we take a picture of that frame then put that picture on our website. It has worked perfectly until now. We can only advance frame once then it stops advancing. We drug clip to timeline which will advance it frame by frame but when we take the picture it is extremely blurry.

    - Windows Movie Maker will not edit *.dvr-ms files - why??? When a TV program is recorded from Windows Media Center the recorded video has the file format [name.dvr-ms] I can open and play these dvr-ms files with Windows Media Player, Windows Media Center, Nero Showtime etc. but if I try to import a dvr-ms file into Windows Movie Maker I always get the error message "File could not be imported. Unspecified error" Windows Movie Maker will successfully import and edit files with extensions .wmv, .avi, . mpg etc. I am using fully updated Vista Home Premium SP1 and the latest Windows Movie Maker v.6.0.6000.16386. The system is very stable and works well in all other respects. What is my problem? - I am baffled! Malcolm H Tag: How do you do Chroma key (i.e. green or blue screen) in Movie Make Tag: 65155

    - Files in a Movie Maker project that will not burn Are there any files that can be used without issue in Windows Movie Maker but that won't burn onto a DVD? I've made a movie using different pictures and video clips and been able to save it as a WMV file and convert it to an MPEG file, but I can't get it to burn onto a DVD. I've been using DVD-R disks and tried on a couple of different computers with DVD burners (both PCs and Macs). On one it appeared to burn completely but the disk didn't work on 2 different DVD players or 2 different computers; another one failed at burning in the beginning. Now I'm wondering if the problem could either be a .gif file that I have in the beginning (do these burn onto DVDs?) or I was wondering if I mistakenly used a song or movie clip that is potentially copyrighted that I got from the internet, would that mess up the burn? Or could it just be that one of the files is corrupted, and that just doesn't show up in Windows Media Player or when converting the finished file?

(picture and sound) During the middle 20 seconds I want to drop the VIDEO portion of the recording (but keep the audio) and for those 20 seconds show a few pictures, the come back to the video and audio clip.

    - .MSWMM File Isn't supported by Windows Movie Maker I made a movie with WMM and the file extenstion is .MSWMM. I believe it might have been an older version of WMM. The problem is I have 5.1 and it tells me when I try to import the following: .MSWMM is not a supported file type, and it cannot be imported into Windows Movie Maker. How is this possible when it was made with the program? Any ideas or do I need to delete that file and start all over again?

    - Movie Maker closes when I try to add to Timeline I'm running WMM 2.1 on XP I've been making a home movie using jpg's and wma files, and everything was fine. Now, when i try to add anything to the timeline, WMM just closes, with no error message - it just goes away !! I've experimented by setting up a new dummy project and dragging jpg's down to the timeline. On the 22nd one, the same thing happened. I reopened the project i'm working on and counted the items on the timeline, and it was 21...... so it would seem the 22nd item will always cause this to happen !!!

    - Bad display ratio with screen capture Hello all, I used Media Encoder 9 to record various activities while the user is performing some activity on the computer. These screen caps pertain to certain parts of the screen, sometimes they are a vertical rectangle, sometimes they are a horizontal one. When I play these using WMP they look ok, but when I import them into MM2 and generate the output file (WMV format) the images get streched horizontally and vertically which makes the captured video look bad. Can anyone orient me as to how to resolve this? I am looking for info now, but have not located anything so far. Thanks!

How do you do Chroma key (i.e. green or blue screen) in Movie Maker?

I see some methods in youtube, but would like something more authoritative.
Does it matter if you are using MM2 or MM2.1?

Thanks,Bob
