    - Capturing Profiles Not Found Hello There, For posterity, I think its important that this fix be listed here. For some unknown reason, Windows Movie Maker started complaining that "Capturing Profiles Not Found". The capture had previously been working flawlessly for some 6-8 months. After finding no reference to this issue on the web, a little toying found that installation of Windows Media Player 9 codecs solved this issue. PHEEWW! Lotsa luck!

    - Audio After Project is made into a Movie I'm experiencing audio problems on all of my movies. After working on a project, and then converting it into a movie (DV-AVI) file, the audio clips in and out. I've tried increasing and decreasing the size of the music file, it seems that the audio is suffering during screen fades and transitions. I'm running a 2.2Gig processor, 512DDR Ram, off a 18.2GB SCSI drive. During the project to movie phase, the processor is running at 95%to 100%. Any suggestions Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar??? Tag: 4157

    - Macros for Movie Maker? Is anyone aware of macros capable of segmenting clips into adjustable durations?

    - Editing VCR and Digital videos to write on DVD disc I want to edit a video from both a digital camcorder and a VCR tape. I have them copied to my hard drive. I am using both Dazzle Video Creator 80 and Sony software to capture my videos. They are both MPEG files. I have an external DVD writer dvd 300e model. This product and all of the above are new items. The HP Arcsoft ShowBiz is what I use to edit the files. PROBLEM: When I move video icons into the program it give me a message "This file format is not supported" The files are opened with RealPlayer or Windows Media Audio/Video" Neither will open. .. I have been on telephone with HP and they have gone thru all the trouble shooting they know. My computer is Dell and I have spoke with them. My computer is okay. PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU, Mary Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar??? Tag: 4150

    - DV-AVI format Having a bit of difficulty with this format... When saving to DV-AVI format, MM2 saves the file at 352 x 288, even though the source file is 640 x 480. This is bad enough for video footage, but even worse for any titles/graphics I have added as they look appalling at this resolution. The only way I can save a movie at a high res (640 or over) is in WMV format, which is fine until I convert to MPEG2 for SVCD creation. Any ideas?

    - Audio problems when recording back to tape Help!!!! I have a problem with the audio track (background music) I added to my movie. First I muted the audio from the video so only the background music I added is heard. The video is edited with various clips from a longer video. When I try to put my project back to tape (from computer onto DV Tape), the audio I added jumps (interrupts) for a second. I think the original video audio is causing the problem and have muted it and done everything else but the music track still jumps when the video changes to a different scene. I even recorded the entire video back to computer so there would be not breaks in it and used it in a new project with the audio track and it still jumps. I can't figure this one out, someone please help Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar??? Tag: 4144

    - microphone problems I was trying to test my microphone, but my system wasn't "hearing" me. I added voip; the program's wizard couldn't hear me either. I called my home phone, and I could hear me through my headphones, but I couldn't hear myself on the telephone.I ran the test wizard in Windows, but no sound registered. I can hear myself talking into my mic when I'm wearing my headset, so I think the hardware is OK. It seems like a software problem. I tried to create a wave sound from desktop, but no go there either. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thanks! Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar??? Tag: 4143

    - Emailing question I have a 1 minute movie that I would like to email. My question is, do I have to use the email function from Movie Maker? Can I send it it out as a MPeg using TEMPeg. That way anyone can watch it with whatever software they have ie qucktime, real player etc. What would be a good way to save it so it is small enough to email? I saved it to 'my computer', then used tempeg to create Mpeg file. It still appears to be large. Can someone enlighten me on the steps that would be best to email?

    - Fade to black? PapaJohn said: Put a black still picture in the timeline and you can overlap it with the clip as long as you like. ---------------- Sounds like a plan. But where or how does one acquire a 'black still picture' and how does one 'overlap' a clip? I've been under the impression that dragging the left/right handles will not lengthen/shorten the timing of the clip. Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar??? Tag: 4121

    - I can't send movies in E mails I installed a Samsung Digimax V4 camera and can send photos no problems in media. To start with everything worked fine, and I was able to send small video clips by e mail with movie maker. I now appear to be stuck on one particular movie, shot in may. Now, although I can load clips I've taken onto my own PC , any movies at all that I try to send, (even to myself) come out as this one particular movie dated back in May. I cant get rid of it. Even though the file properties show the new clips, when I send them , they still turn out to be this same one. The only possible explanation I can come up with is that in mid may, I got Movie maker updated to movie maker 2, I cant remember where from. I've a feeling the trouble stems from then. Is there a patch I need, or should I do a system restore back to may, as I dont know how else to remove Movie maker2. I'd prefer to uninstall MM2 rather than do a system restore. please advise me.

    - Terrible video output & green screens on clip library Hello, First, thanks to Papa John's fixes page, I was able to keep WMM2 from crashing constantly when trying to use an effect or transition. Thanks! Secondly, I have a huge problem. My video output is terrible. The only way I can describe it is to say it looks like a 3 year old went wild with fingerpaints. :> I have uninstalled codecs (Nimo Codec Pack), I have recompressed any clips I'm using into mpegs, I've defragged, upgraded to DirectX 9.0b, Windows Media 9, and still I cannot make WMM2 stop rendering my finished movies into... crap. Most of the time I can't even make out the difference between the scenery and the people in the clip (but the audio is just fine, which indicated to me that it was a video codec... which is why I uninstalled everything). As if that weren't enough, most of the clips in my clip library (which I have set to thumbnails) are green. They were green before I uninstalled the extra codecs, and after. I'm beginning to wonder if WMM2 is just designed to give you poor results if you're not using proprietary media from Microsoft. Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar??? Tag: 4114

The program doesnt freeze, and i always end up just cancelling the entire exporting process. After that, moviemaker shuts down, and brings up a weird error notice, but I only saw it once, cuz I realized that after the program shut down, I lost about 10 GB's worth of free disk space. I'm sure it disappeared while it was compiling the video...but I don't know where I go to delete this compiled video and get back my disk space. Can anyone help me out here?

    - MM2 crashes on me constantly, without any error messages or warnings... I was wondering if anyone else has had this same problem, and if so, whether there is any known patch or fix for it. I'll just be sitting there, doing my thing, and out of nowhere the program just shuts down. No error messages, no slow-down... it just crashes, nice and clean. When I go back into the program, all my work is obviously gone. This will ussually happen some 2-3 times straight, and on about the 4'th or 5'th time, my comp will freeze. But like I said, there doesn't seem to be any proglem with my computers resources. On the contrary, when the program is working, it works perfectly. It's just that it crashes and freezes on a regular basis. Am I alone here, or is this a known issue? Thanks in advance for any and all help. Tag: MMI_XP- Clips from VHS obscured by white bar???
