    - Drops audio a couple of times when transfered back to DV camera A 3-minute segmented video with titles and fades (MM2 Project file) when saved back to camera (.avi) I get an occasional drop in audio. Raw .avi plays fine by themselves. When saved as a DSL optimized file works great too (audio, the works). Only when saved back to the camera do I get the drops. Any ideas? I've tried to isolate.

    - How to playback on a DVD player Thanks papajohn. I finally did get my project burned to CD. Now I am wondering how I can get it to playback on a normal DVD player. If I am correct, a CD with images would still playback on a DVD player right? Does it have to be saved to a DVDR to playback on a DVD player or can I just use CDRs. I already tried using a CDR, but when I put it in my DVD player I it read: NO DISC. Is this just the fact that it needs to be on a DVDR or does there need to be some type of conversion program so it plays on home DVD players? Sorry to take up more newsgroup space; I'm still learning:-) Thanks again eparker78@msn.com Tag: Movie Quality??? Tag: 18487

    - Difficlty Saving As Movie File. Hello everyone! I am experiencing a difficulty with my movie maker! I really need some assistance, please!! I created a slieshow with photos and audio. In the preview looks fantastic! But. I've saved the project as movie1.MSWMM on my computer but I can't save my project as a movie file to my computer, or burn on CD or send via E-mail or any other options... Anyway, I got this message saying "Cannot Complete the Save Movie Wizard, Your movie was not saved successfully" and â??Windows Movie Maker cannot save the movie to the specified location. Verify that the original source files used in your movie are still available, that the saving location is still available, and that there is enough free disk space available, and then try againâ?? Now I'd like to know why movie maker can't save the files as movie but only to MSWMM? I've tried everything. All my files are there, it just doesn't make any cents I tested, i made another two, and few of really short ones, and still doesn't work Do I maybe need to reinstall my movie maker? Or what do you thing it is? Thanks guys! PS. PapaJohn! I've visited your site, it's got everything and it's pretty good. But still didn't help me with "saving your movie"... :( Tag: Movie Quality???

    - Analog capture and conversion..... Bought a Pinnacle Studio 8 product for analog capture from both VCR and Analog Camcorder. Did a LOUSY job from the very start. Pinnacle doesn't tell you that you need to buy a separate sound card to capture the audio, as thier software does not use the resident audio inputs from most computers (I've tried 2 different machines) so that was an ordeal Yesterday, successfully captured (with Pinnacle) a VCR tape. Used WMM to "convert" the file. Took HOURS (on a brand new high end machine). Video came out choppy and lousy. So.... Now I guess I'm gonna try capturing from VCR to my digital camcorder and try it that way. WMM SHOULD allow for capture through someone else's capture card OR.. Pinnacle should make the captured file into something that other programs can use and use and recognize. It doesn't. It makes a proprietary file type that only Pinnacle can recognize (and consequently burn to DVD) but that didn't work either. Got an "error" when trying to get Pinnacle to burn the DVD.... oh well I'm starting to think that maybe I should buy one of those new VCR/DVD burner combos and the heck with all this wasted time and effort. Bought so much hardware and spent SO much time that now I feel COMPELLED to try to do it.... : Sorry about the rant Steve Tag: Movie Quality??? Tag: 18473

    - Codecs? I have spent a ton of hours on a presentation but can't get it to burn to a CD. All of these are jpeg pics that I am trying to transfer. So does that confirm they are not CODECS? I have no idea what that even is? I can burn a smaller version of the same pics but when I do this one (just under 1000 pics) and I try to save it hangs up at the window where it shows the % left and the estimated minutes remaining. I have a Pent 4 with 2.4 mhz and 1 gig of RAM so memory should not be a problem. Suggestions? Tag: Movie Quality??? Tag: 18464

    - There is NO CD BURNER I finished my first slide show. Added music, titles, effects, the works. Plays great. Save it to hard disk. Tried to put it on a CD and the program insists that there is no CD in my burner. WRONG. There is. Changed CD. Re-Started Windows XP. Nothing, same message. Read instructions to remove "imapi.exe" Such file is NOT in my computer. Tried to burn a DVD. Nothing. The software does not "see" that there is a DVD in the burner either. I have the latest version of the program 2.0.3312.0 I just got my new computer with Windows XP last week and just today tried the Movie Maker. Am I missing a patch?

    - 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.

When I tried burning to cd, only some of the pictures were there but all of the music selections were there.
