    - Cannot Save a Movie I just finished editing my movie but when I go to create it nothing happens. "Please wait while we create your movie" appears but it doesn't go any farther. Also when I try to play the entire storyboard it doesn't play. I put all the clips together without editing them and the storyboard played fine and the movie would save. All I have done to the clips for my movie is shorten them and made transitions, why is this effecting whether it will save or not? Tag: Importing Tag: 18434

    - Saving Movie File I made a slideshow with still photos, transitions and audio tracks. When I save the project as a movie, it reads as 125MB. Then after it burns onto the hard drive, in my video folder it reads as 62MB. When I play the movie back on Windows Media Player, the audio runs through the entire sequence. However, about half way through the slideshow the pictures freeze and stop coming. I have tried re-saving half a dozen times. I cannot figure out why the project is not saving the entire slideshow, but rather just all the music and half the still pictures. Please help! I'm trying to make an end of the year video for my high school students and the last days of school are fastly approaching.

    - Importing music The Movie Maker will not import music from my Microsoft Media Player 9 program. The music does not show up as existing at all in the My Music file even though it has been copied into the Media Player. Also, if I try to import the CD directly into the Movie Maker from the CD- Audio drive, it does not recognize the CD at all. The only music it recognizes is the Sample Music which came with the computer. Tag: Importing Tag: 18396

    - Cannot copy to cd or transfer to dv camera I made a video using pictures of my daughter starting from when she was born to now for her graduation video. When I tried burning to cd, only some of the pictures were there but all of the music selections were there. And when I tried transfering to my sony dv camera to put on tape it says there is not enough disk space. Apparently the pic's I scanned into the computer for the video's is taking up all of my disc space. My question is, is there an online storage place to put my video so I can burn to cd or transfer to my camera so I can record to tape. I am using Sony VIAO RS430G. Camera I am using is a Sony mini dv. Tag: Importing Tag: 18391

However when I do the same with moviemaker2 which provides so much more extras, the slideshow is clearly not in focus. It looks just slightly out of focus. The photos are taken with a 6.0 meg Fuji camera and again I don't do anything like resize them or change them for Adobe so I fugured it should be the same for moviemaker2.

    - Audio Mixing Is Window's Movie Maker capable of laying down a variety of music blending in the same "movie". I have filmed a wedding and want to have music only that I add. in the beginning; then the original sound track I imported from my digital camera into the computer; and finally, a mix of the original audio track with music that I add in the end for the recap. I discovered the Audio-levels option but it seems to only allow me to have a certain blend of original sound track from the tape to added music for the entire movie. Not allowing me to splice where I want the audio/music levels to change. Any suggestions? Tag: Importing Tag: 18346

    - Complaint Hello, Mr Brown and Mr. Eddy. Please take this message as notice that I will be complaining formally about one of your employee's a mr denny who uses the honorific MS-MVP If you look at all of his messages in this newsgroup over say the last week you will find I am sure that his remarks are anything but helpful. At least one remark is quite insulting. I will be compiling a full list of his messages and messages from those who seek to support him and detailing my complaint in writing by ordinary post. My purpose here is to pre-warn you of its arrival, so that if it does not soon arrive on your desks you will be able to query where it is. I am very unhappy with the way this newsgroup is administered and the quality of some of your MVP's At least two of them seem to be employees of your company. I find it very hard to believe that your company is happy to employ people who advertise that they are your employees and MVP's and then conduct themselves in the way they do I once again make the remark that these MVP's have hardly covered themselves in any form of glory, again, and ask, when will you deal with them so that ordinary users can help others without being bombarded with insults and inferences of being a liar?

    - Can't Save Movie to Local File I'm experiencing an "all of the sudden" problem saving a Movie File. I'm attempting to save it to "My Computer" like I always do and then after completing the wizard it waits a few minutes and indicates that it's trying to write a Recordable CD format. At this point it just sits there (i.e. no % progress) and the number of minutes remaining is huge. I've been using Movie Maker for over a year and this just started happening this week. I've ensured that the save path is my local hard drive and even tried saving to another hard drive in the same system to see if that would work, but no luck. It's also worth noting that I don't even have a Recordable CD drive installed on the machine I'm using for this task. Any ideas? Tag: Importing Tag: 18295

    - Loud Sound As Audio Fades In the movie that I'm making I use lots of audio/music clips (wav files). In almost all cases I only use a portion of the music clip -- fading it in or out as the situation requires. On many of the clips where I fade it out (before the actual clip ends) there is a loud noise/squawk right at the very end, just after the fade. It sounds terrible and readjusting the end of the clip makes no difference. It doesn't happen of every clip but it does happen frequently. Does anyone else have this same problem? Is there a solution? Thanks in advance. Note: I'm playing my first MovieMaker project tomorrow (Saturday) night for 150 people! The project is complete except for two loud sqawks that I'd like to take out if I have the time. Ed Tag: Importing Tag: 18258

    - TabletPC capture problem ? Any ideas ? I have 2 laptop computers that I use. I use an OranLink FireWire CardBus, that I move from laptop to laptop. One has Win 2000 Pro and WinDV, for example, works great. Capture works every time - no problems whatsoever. My newer one runs XP Pro - it's a TabletPC from Toshiba (Portege 3500). I have read that the TabletPC version of XP Pro includes SP1. My other laptop, running Win 2000 Pro has all the current MS updates installed. Here is my problem. First off, my XP Pro laptop would not capture at all, so I started investigating. In desperation, I reinstalled XP Pro from the Toshiba recovery CDs and had the unit in factory condition. Nothing else installed except for the OrangeLink FireWire driver and WinDV. With nothing else installed, WinDV captures well. Everything works great then. But if I install any or all of the recommend security patches from MS - and there are several - capture is no longer possible. It will start capturing for 3-5 seconds, WinDV freezes up and the camera continues to play the footage. I have tried and tried to install a select number of patches, but anyone of them will cause the same problem. I am unusure of the solution and have not really found the exact same problem documented anywhere... By the way, I did try other capturing software (Ulead, Pinnacle Studio and Win MovieMaker 2) and all have the exact same problem. Do you have any ideas ?

Now I learn that you can only add narration by statrting in a place where there is no sound track already - ie an empty spot.

    - DVD Burners Hello, Yesterday I was at our local computer store and saw something I had been told previously (Not in here) would never become available. Sony have released a Dual Layer DVD burner that also supports both the "=" and "+" formats.....the even bigger surprise was the cost. UK £149 The drive will hold up to 8.5GB which is perhaps 1.5hours of high quality DVD. The Sales people could not tell me when the disks themselves would be in store and they had no idea on their price.....but what marvelous news this is. The draw back is they are new technology as far as we are concerned and may not be a good buy for that reason..... Anyway, if you are on the verge of buying a DVD burner, you might want to consider one of these. -- Best Wishes.....John Kelly www.the-kellys.org www.the-kellys.co.uk All material gained from other sources is duly acknowledged.

    - MM2 crashes when I click on video transition or effect - Okay, I have been having some real (and recent) problems with Movie Maker 2. Until about 3 weeks ago (end of March 2004) it worked just fine - and I was pleased with the features it has - a super program. Well, the problem began. Now, everyone knows that during this period 'sasser' arrived, and so did a bunch of other nasties and my Windows Update went mad updating (as did Norton and AVG). During this period Movie Maker 2 ceased to work properly. Everytime, and I mean EVERYTIME I click on either a video transition or effect, the program crashed. I reformatted my system twice to eliminate system problems,even loaded it first to eliminate software conflicts. There were none - MM2 continued (and still continues) to crash when I click on the two features mentioned above. In desperation I called Microsoft's technical support and spoke at great length with a technician about this. In fairness, under her guidance, several things were tried, investigated, attempted - all for not. The program still crashes. I received a nice email from the tech and replied please do not close the ticket - keep trying for a solution to my (and others) problem. I did check the newsgroups on Microsoft's site and found others having this same problem. The ticket was closed and I heard nothing back - the program is useless in it's current form. I again emailed Microsoft, to a person whose email I know - and even though she is not a techie she does understand - and on May 24/04 I received an email telling me that the techies have been alerted - again - and to expect contact from them. I was also given the option to phone the tech line - unfortunately I have used up my two freebie calls with this problem -so- I await - with a program that worked fine until March/April - and am faced with the probability of having to purchase a similar program - unless the techies find the problem and let me (and the many others) know Tag: Importing Tag: 18208

There isn't any... that model is an analog Hi8 one. Only the digital
