    - W Moviemaker crashes due to large file size Hello I have been using Windows Movie maker for more than three years without any hassles on my computer running Windows XP Recently I have encouintered a problem in capturing video from by DV camcorder The programme crashes within few seconds of capture (in less than 30 seconds) So I started trying various other video capture prorgammes like AVS /Cyberlink Power DVD/ WinDV. Both Powever DVD & Win DV generates unusually very large size file of about 225 mb per minute. In the past normally it take 15 minutes of capture to generate such a large size file of 225 mb size file. AVS software similar to Windows Moviemaker, ends up with error message after couple of seconds for the reason I am short of memory resoucres, prompting me to shut down other programs. But Moviemaker just crashes without even any error message. So I tried upgrading my hardware by increasing the RAM capacity from 760 mb to 1500 mb. Still there is no solution to this problem. It appears to me, there is something wrong in video compression engine of the computer on the operating system Windos XP rather than to a specific video capture programme, be it Windows Moview maker / Power DVD / Win DV /AVS or whatever it may be. Only ultimate plan I have as a last resort is to try reinstalling Windows XP. Before that, could anyone having a clue on what the problem might be give me suggestions to trouble shoot this problem Thanks in advance regards Sridhar Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65850

    - Movie Maker freezes I need some help. I imported some DV and I imported it into Movie Maker. Everything worked so far, but when I try and put the clip in the timeline to start to work on it ....the system freezes. Everything become unresponsive and the only way out is CTRL ALt DEL. I am using XP Home with SP2. I have all the current updates. My computer is a Athlon AMD 64 bit Dual core 2.7 GHZ with 2 GB of RAM. I am trying to import the clips into Movie Maker to clean them up some (a little dark) and then save the bigger MPEG2 to a smaller file size format to upload and share. I also have an older Pinnacle Studio 8 that is giving me a similar problem when I tried to use that software. Hmmmm. Thanks Brent Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65846

    - I lose video when I add an audio/music track. I had a VCR tape of a movie (not a commercial movie). I used Honestechâ??s VCR to DVD 3.0 Deluxe to convert it to an .mpg file. The volume was too low so I brought it into Windows moviemaker (6.0) and dragged the file to the audio track and saved a copy as the audio file. I opened the new audio file in WavePad and enhanced the volume. I then opened Windows Moviemaker and dragged the initial .mpg file onto the video track (which split into video/audio). I turned the volume down to nothing and muted it on the movieâ??s audio track. I then dragged my enhanced audio track to the Audio/Music track and burned a DVD. When I play the DVD all I get is good audio â?? no video. If I make a DVD of the initial .mpg file with the inadequate volume I do get both the audio and the video. What can I do to get the video along with the good audio? Thank you for any insight given. Mary Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65824

    - I am using Vista Business & trying too make a dvd using movie make I'm new to this site, so please be patient with me. I have made a movie using photos, and added music looks great, however when it came to publish this movie, it would not allow to burn on dvd, it only let me burn on recordable cd, why ?? so I did burn on a disk (dvd-r) however my dvd player would not recognize it. is it because i'm running vista business,??? Would it be possible to add on dvd maker, or is it the same as movie maker ( bit confused). Found movie maker very easy to use apart from this problem. Would I have to upgrade my vista to Ultimate... Any feedback would be appreciated. very new to all this. but lots of fun. Thanks in advance. -- Mars Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65815

    - Animated images in video Okay, tell me if anyone knows how to make this work... So I wanted to put some animated pictures in a video, like the ones you see on myspace (the motion icons, the glitter effects) but it keeps giving me an error message. I think it's because it's a GIF file so it doesn't work with Windows Movie Maker. The only other option of saving for an animated picture is a BMP file which doesn't allow the picture to be animated after it's saved like that. So um... help? haha Is there a way to save it as a movie file maybe? So it will work with Windows Movie Maker? Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65810

    - Movie maker screws up my audio clips...please help!!! I am trying to create videos to upload to YouTube, but something happened to Windows Movie Maker. I have created several videos recently without any problems, but something seems to have happened to Windows Movie Maker. Every song or audio clip I import shows an incorrect duration. For example, a 4:19 long song shows up as 7:18. This happens with every single clip I import. I would like to reinstall the program, but I'm having trouble. It is not an option to uninstall in Add/Remove programs, nor is it in Add/Remove Windows Components. Furthermore, I cannot seem to find a download for it on Microsoft's website. Can anyone please provide me with a link to download it, or a solution to my problem? Or maybe the name of a similar freeware program I can use instead? Thanks in advance, Dan I'm using XP home, SP2.

PapaJohn's Guide to YouTube http://tinyurl.com/2eh3d3 only worked once for me. When I go back to create another video, YouTube gives me the message saying "unable to convert". I dont want to be forced to use Windows Movie Maker because of the annoying hang ups. Can anyone shed any light on this subject for me? Or maybe even suggest a free YouTube compatible movie making software? Thanks in advance, Please email me at lovethydog@msn.com Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65803

    - Intentionally Blurring a Clip I would like to Slow Down and Blur a clip. I want to shoot my two nephews walking toward me and have the clip blurred to the point that you cant make out what it is and then cut away to stills then come back to the shot as it comes into focus. Can that be done, or does that have to be done all in the camera? I think the last part will have to be done in the camera but that a clip that is blurry to out of focus can be done in WMM. I just cant figure it out. Before you ask I did add Blur to the Clip 6 times (the max) and it didnt make it blurry enough. Thanks in advance. Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65794

    - Music files? Every time I import some music files, for some odd reason, the time says it's about 7:30 minutes long? I play it in windows media, and it says 3:58 minutes(correct time). Also, if I'm in the middle of making a video, and I want to see a certain part, the music starts off somewhere else. For example, I'm using the song Far Away, and it would play the chorus where the verse should be. There isn't any corruptions with the music files, or any errors either. They work perfectly with other windows programs. What am I supposed to do to fix it? Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65790

    - Blurry pictures Hello. My pictures are showing up really blurry when I preview the photo slideshow I made in Movie Maker. I read that this is normal but when you show on the tv it will not be blurry. Here is my issue: I want to show the slideshow on the tv, but I am not quite sure what the best way t is to get it to the tv. Can I just save it as a movie file and then get some kind of cord to hook it up to the tv? If this is the case, then what is the best way to save it? What kind of cord do I need? Will the pictures be blurry? Or do I need to get the slideshow on a dvd? I do not have dvd burner but my friend does. If this is the correct solution then what is the best way to get the slideshow on the dvd and still have it show good quality pictures on the tv? Thanks for your help!

    - Movie Maker Crashes after 7 items placed in story line I have cured the problem ... after about 30 hours of reading up and trying various suggestions Thanks to those that replied and helped me finally establish a solution For the archives, and to help others here is an out line of what I found out. A) This is a problem that has been recorded several times before ( see Dean Rowe blog) some people have experienced crashing after 6 items are put on the story board and some after the seventh but it is always the same fixed number of items when the crash occurs B) The problem seems to be that the update files Wmm2ae.dll through to Wmm2res.dll are up loaded via Microsoft automatic update BUT the main programe moviemk.exe is not ( has not been ) updated and is vers 2.0 instead of ver 2.1 c) uploading xp sp2 or running Microsoft up dates DID NOT cure it d) this is how I FOUNDthe problem make a restore point in c:\program Files\Movie maker, view , tiles Check that Wmm2Ae.dll .... to Wmm2res.dll are there and have the version number 2.1.40.26 ( as per Dean Rowe's blog) CheckMovieMk.exe in explorer select properties and if the file is ver 2.0 then you have confirmed the problem it should be ver 2.1.... All of the following may not be necessary but here is how I rectified it I AM NOT A COMPUTER BLOKE SO I AM ONLY TELLING YOU WHAT WORKED FOR ME! open START UP - RUN TYPE In C:\windows\system32\dllcache ENTER ........ see Dean Rowe's blog if its not hthere and you need ServicePackFiles\i386 Hold down control and select the following files Moviemk.exe wmm2ae.dll wmm2eres.dll Wmm2ext.dll Wmm2flt.dll Wmm2fxa.dll Wmm2fxb.dll Wmm2res2.dll Wmm2res.dll .note I did not find ANY of these Wmm" files here so I just selecteed Moviemk.exe on it's own. EDIT, COPY Go to c:\program Files| movie maker ( the missing Wmm2 Files were HERE - I ignored them for being away from there proper place -naughty files) EDIT , PASTE in CONFIRM FILE REPLACE .... YES TO ALL Restart Windows XP I then did a run update from Control panel , automatic update and It said I needed Service pack 3 I express installed this which took about 2hours !!!! An Bobs your uncle Movie maker updated to version 2.1 and every thing is running OK To see what I did with go to YOU TUBE SPARKFISHES and it will be TESLA COIL TUNING and TOP LOADS .......... its a shocking experience Thanks to all those who have spent many hours putting articles and advice on these matters To MICROSOFT >>>>>>>>>>>>> MOVIE MAKER IS SOooooo FLAKEY Shame on you!

    - An interface has too many methods to fire from... intermittent iss I think I have read just about every response to this error message, except my issue is a little different than the others. I have a Sony DCR-HC30 which I used for years with WMM 2.1 connect via firewire with no issue. Now I ingest footage off my DCR via WMM with no issue, edit and output it for DVD burning and suddenly the AVI files that I could view yesterday, are unreadable today with the "An interface has too many methods to fire events from" error. Now the only think I have changed over the years is the addition of a 500Gb HDD for storing and working on more video footage. The drive has occassion issues staying connected through the USB. I am suspecting that it is either the drive or the USB connection that is unstable here. I am lookinf for options and suggestions to resolve my issues. Would connecting external HDD to the PC via firewire improve anything? Is there another resolution I am overlooking? Please advise. Thanks. Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65758

    - Nothing works! Hi. I am so frustrated. I spent 700.00 on a camera ( with extra battery pack, case ect...) and I can not make a movie. I was so excited to discover that my WXP had MM but then I find out it won't accept my mpg2 movies. Papajohn (and others ) post that I need to download a converter and convert them to avi. files. I did that. Then I need to download a Panasonic codec something or other, I did that. Now I have managed to turn one film into an avi file,( yeah!) but MM2( I upgraded to MM2 thinking that might help) will not accept that either. says I don't have the codec. In control panel I see that the new codec is up and running.. sooo.... Help me please! I really do want my new expensive toy but I am not enjoying it ! Thank you to whoever helps me with this. Papajohn, your sight probably has everything I need but since I don't know ANYTHING about software I am probably not doing it right. Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65736

    - Error Opening Movie Maker Project (Redirected) I accidentally posted this in the wrong group, but someone kindly informed me of my mistake. I'm using Windows Movie Maker with XP and no, no IE7. Now, when creating my video there were no issues really. I saved it a couple times, but I didn't actually have to open it again during its creation because I kept WMM running the whole time I was making it. After it was completed I tried to save it as a movie file. I've done this plenty of times with no issue, but the progress bar stuck at 89% and then the estimated time remaining went up. (65 seconds, then 1 minute, then 4 minutes) I canceled and then attempted to save again, but encountered the same issue. I restarted my computer and then when I tried to open the project I was informed that WMM had enountered an error and needed to close, so sorry. It's very important that I rescue this file, because it was a creative project and there is basically no way I could redo it. Especially because when I tried to do that, create another version of it, I had the same error when trying to open THAT saved file. However, WMM is okay when opening other projects I've finished long ago, at least for now. Please... can anybody help me, and soon? Tag: Movie Maker Preview Screen goes Black Tag: 65675
