Picture Duration
My wife started a WMM project with several dozen photos. Is there a way to
change the duration of all the photos simultaneously after they have been
added and saved to the timeline? I changed the default duration in options
but that apparently doesn't affect the photos already in place. Tag: Jittery or shaky movie clip Tag: 56056
which option will give best quality for "saving to my computer"
I have now finished my movie and want to "save it to my computer" then I am
given a list of options eg:
best quality play back on my comput
best fit
other settings (has so many options)
But if I want to burn it to dvd to play on tv/pc what should I select for
best quality?
Sorry if its a no brainer, but thankyou for your time.

Uninstall IE7 and go back to IE6
How do I uninstall IE7 and go back to IE6? I tried to download IE6, but it
said it wouldn't do it since a newer version (IE7) is already installed. If
I just uninstall IE7 will I still be able to access the Internet? Will is
automatically revert back to IE6?
Thanks,

Capturing Aspect Ratio Problem
When capturing video from the video in of an ATI Radeon X600, the aspect
ratio using the best quality setting is screwed up. It used to capture at
720x480, and now it captures at 720x240. The preview screen looks fine
during the capture, but when the video is played (independently with MP or
on a timeline) it is skrunched to a narrow screen.
I've seen where other posters have reported problems with MM after
installing IE7 and/or WMP11, and I've loaded both since this problem
started.
Has anyone else seen this problem and been able to resolve it?
Thanks,

wmm error
i noticed in another post that someone uninstalled thier intervideo creator
which caused wmm to then work. i use that program also and never had any
trouble with it. from the dates of these posts, it seems that this trouble
is happening for everyone around the same time. i think it MUST have
something to do with a recent update. another person said they renamed the
HKCU? how the heck does one do that? i'd like to try that since i also
use my intervideo creator a lot and don't want to lose that either. Tag: Jittery or shaky movie clip Tag: 56008
Add a clip
I am making a video of football clips for my brother. I got the video from
old VHS tapes using a VCR going directly to the back of the computer,
recorded it with media center, burned it to DVD and Imported it to MM from
the file the computer created. My problem is that I was having so many
problems with MM shutting down, freezing up, getting errors ect. I went ahead
and created a DVD because I was afraid of loosing what I had already made. I
have a 2 minute clip that I want to put on the end of the already existing
movie and this nightmare will be over. The 2 min clip came from a Sony
viewcam 8 that I went through the VCR and created the same way as the other
clips. Sorry for getting long winded, I can see the vid in my folders but
when I click import it is not in any of the folders? What am I doing wrong?
This project has been very frustrating but I now have to much time in it to
scrap it. Any help would be appreciated. Tag: Jittery or shaky movie clip Tag: 56007

3gp movies - how to convert (to AVI?)
Hello,
I have a Nokia 6280 mobile phone which can take films stored in the 3gp
format. I would like to make real films out of these files, but they have to
be converted somehow.
How can I convert these 3gp-files into a format that can be used by windows
or the movie maker or windows media player? Which format would be
preferrable? Are there any free tools? Pls. post if you already successfully
did what I am trying!
I tried some tools that google shows but with no luck. I can convert in good
quality to MP4 with "3GP_Converter"
http://www.nurs.or.jp/~calcium/3gpp/
however, I read that this format is not good for use in programs like
moviemaker because it is good for low bandwith internet connections.

No video effects or transistions for domain users
I work at a high school and have recently installed XP on a suite of
computers. In the suite there are several shuttles and towers.
The problem I am having is with movie maker on the towers. On these movie
maker will run perfectly as the local administrator or domain administrator,
but when any other type of domain user tries to use the software only two
video effect appear (Slow Down,Half and Speed Up, Double) and no transistions.
I have tried several methods to try to resolve the problem but with no joy.
(from here
http://www.windowsmoviemakers.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=25682 )
The strange thing is that movie maker works fine on the shuttles.

length of clips driving me crazy.....help?!?!
Hi my name is beth and I am making a video of a bunch of pictures and

make the length of alot of the clips longer. I was able to make them all
longer a few days ago. but I saved it and when I reopened it.. it had
condensed all of the pictures back to like a couple seconds each. I dont know
why it didnt leave them at the length I arranged them to. Well anyway, now
that they are condensed .. I dont even have the option to make them
longer..and i dont know why. Is there another way to make the clips longer
than draging them when that arrow shows up on the timeline screen?!?! its soo
frusterating and i just want it to work. I dont know if I am doing something
wrong or what, but im hoping you can help.. thx!!! Tag: Jittery or shaky movie clip Tag: 55878
Where Is The Snow Effect?

I keep seeing reference being made to a falling snow effect in the Windows
Movie Maker 2 Winter Fun Pack, but I can't find it for the life of me. It's
not in the Videos folder of Fun Pack. All that contains is: Happy Holidays,
Happy New Year LONG, Happy New Year SHORT, Made With Movie Maker 2, Season's
Greetings SNOWBALL, Season's Greetings SNOWMAN and Wishing. No falling
snow! And it's not in any of the transitions or effects of WMM2, which I
think someone said it would be once Fun Pack is installed. What am I
missing? Where is the snow?

hardly kno what I'm doin' to be honest
Just got a new desktop with XP and have a Kodak camera that shoots video.
So, I did an experimental 10 minutes of video to see what it'd look like.
Then transfered the video I shot to a CD.
It was only after that, that I discovered Movie Maker on my pc. There were
instructions I found in a book on letting MM do the work automatically. But,
I couldn't seem to get the video transferred drom the CD to MM to work it's
magic.
I did see a clip in mm but couldn't import it or drag anything.

Unable to fully transfer mpeg2 from H/drive to WMM.
I have mpeg2 movie clips on the hard drive of my IBM R50e laptop which would
not transfer fully into Windows Movie Maker. All I could get was the sound
track but no images. This was also the case on my other desktop computer.
Following a recent response you gave to another enquirer, with roughly the
same problem, I took the advise given and downloaded codecs from
www.rehanfx.org/utils/reregdlls.bat and had success with the desktop for
which I thank you for the advice given. The IBM laptop, however, still will
not allow images into WMM. Any info would be gratefully received!

Video Capture - Recognising source
I have a Dazzle DVC170 external USB card to convert my VCR analogue video and

to think that it is a sound card rather than a video/sound card. It works

However, Windows Movie Maker does not recognise this card as a capture
device. Is there any way of informing WMM that the card is a capture device?

Importing video problem
I've used MM 2.1 numerous times over the past few years. Mostly to create
DVDs of family vacations. This week I ran into an issue I've never
experienced.
I captured a 67 minute video (DV-AVI) format from my Sony MiniDV the same as
I always have. The problem is that MM 2.1 only recognizes the first 2
seconds of the file. The entire 13.7 gb file is on my system as I can play
it in Media Player. I've tried importing it into MM a few different ways.
I've also tried re-capturing it a few times, but no success.
I'm using Windows XP SP2 and IE7. The only change to my system from the
last time I used MM would be the change to IE7.
Can someone give me an idea of what's going on? Tag: Jittery or shaky movie clip Tag: 55831
