    - Importing from Sony HVR-A1U I have Movie Maker 2.1 installed. I just purchased a Sony HVR-A1U/A1N and set it into stardard DV mode and made a small test tape. the Sony supplied cable into the HDV/DV socket and the other end into a USB port and powered up the camera putting it into playback mode. Then I started Movie Maker and attempted "capture video" but was told that MM could find no capture device. The Sony literature is a bit sketchy but perhaps it is saying that the USB cable is only for still pictures. It might be saying that an optional iLink cable is necessary to import video. If this is the case, would Movie Maker find the camera if I had an iLink cable? Tag: MovieMaker 6.0 available XP? Tag: 62011

    - Best codec to use for reliability Im just wondering what the best format to encode into is. I plan on doing low compression formats or maybe raw data, for the actual recording sessions, but for editing, I want to cut it down to a high compression format. I've tried DivX, but for some reason, Movie Maker seems to have a LOT of problems with that. Is there a way to either get DivX to co-operate, or is there a similarly size-reduced codec that could allow me to make a pretty decent length movie, that could say, fit Youtube's 10minute 100MB rule.

    - Importing Videos I am new to using Moviemaker and I taped using a DVD camcorder. I formatted the disc to VR which seems to be the problem. I found software that took the .vro that I uploaded from the camera and turned it into a .mpg. I saved it to my flash drive. I am at work, trying to edit the material from my flash drive, but I cannot import the file. I can view the video with Windows Media Player. When I try to import the video, the message says, "E:\PepRally.mpg could not be imported. An interface has too many methods to fire events from" Also, I am running on XP Professional (moviemaker version 5.1) and at home I have Vista (moviemaker 6.0), which does allow me to import the video. I need to work on it from here at work. Can anyone help? Thank you in advance! Tag: MovieMaker 6.0 available XP? Tag: 62004

    - Dragging I'm wondering, first of all, if I'm in the wrong discussion group, as this one is listed under Windows XP and I'm using Vista and MM 6.0. I'll just ask my question anyways, if someone can hopefully answer. A technique that I used on my old (now broken) XP laptop when movie editing was to drag a video clip I wanted into the Audio track so I could use its sound on top of my existing shot. However, my new Vista machine has MM 6.0 freezing up every single time I do this. Does anybody else have this problem and, if so, is there a solution or patch I'm unaware of? Or is a way to circumvate this problem? System specs: Windows Vista Home Premium HP Intel Duo-Core processor @ 1.86 GHz 1 GB RAM That should be enough to handle MM, don't you think?

    - Seeking advice to import music file for WMM Hi: I just purchased a song that I'd like put put into a WMM file I'm creating. I paid for the download on Zune and it says it won't allow me to download it to WMM as it's right management protected. I also had the same song purchased through iTunes and that won't upload either. I thought it was a codec issue so downloaded various codec but that didn't fix the issue -- I noticed that there is a lock icon on the MP4 icon so I think it's rights protected. My only purpose for purchasing the songs was to put it into the WMM file. Is my only option to purchase the music CD at the store? I am concerned that I will right into the rights management issue again. Usually when I have created WMM files, I've burned the music CD to my PC and uploaded the song to WMM. These have typically been older CDs where there may be fewer restrictions on content protection. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Annette Tag: MovieMaker 6.0 available XP?

    - capturing from a panasonic nv-gs120 Hi, I am using windows xp sp2 version, on a compaq laptop and am unable to capture video from my panasonic nv-gs120. The computer recognises the camera, i.e it pings when it is plugged in, and the version of MMV is 2.1.4026.0 When i start MMV and hit capture it comes with with the usual wizard box and shows the panasonic as the dv camera, however after i continue on through the wizard, choose the file name for the download and go on, it comes up with the following message "the video device cannot be used at this time because there has been an error when starting the device" I am using a dv cable direct from the camera to the laptop. What is driving me crazy is that when i use another program, i.e muvee autoproducer 4.5 it has absolutley no problem detecting and downloading the video from this camera. I also have a desktop, a dell running xp professional, and MMV on that computer has no problems at all downloading from the panasonic. So whilst i can get by, its frustrating the hell out of as to why MMV will not download the files from the camera onto the laptop. any help would be appreciated regards -- freddy Tag: MovieMaker 6.0 available XP?

    - Still Image Hi. I am trying to create a movie that can be played on TV screen (DVD format). I am currently working on creating still images.

    - photostory 3 quality using movie maker? I have made many photostory3 projects using high quality images. I save them at the highest quality setting to the WMV format. As i'm sure you are all aware, this does not allow me to play these files on macs, as the codec is not available. I was told and read many websites about important my photostory3 project into moviemaker and then resaving it. I have done this 3 times, each selecting different formats (DV-AVI, high quality WMV, VBR WMV). Some of these have taken 12 hours to save (the DV-AVI was 8gigs). But none had the same quality as the photostory saved WMV. In fact, I was very dissapointed with the poor quality of the MM2 saved file. So is there a way , using MM2 or any other software you could recommend, to convert a WMV made with photostory, to a same quality format that could be played on a mac? thanks so much Mike Tag: MovieMaker 6.0 available XP?
