Cant capture Video
I went through the steps to capture video. I press the "Start Capture" Button and the camera appears to be capturing but the Video Captured: 0:00:00 and the Size of Video File: 0 KB doesnt start showing numbers. Once I press the Stop Capture button I get an error that says: "The specified video deviceis not responding. Verify that the device is connected properly and turned on, and then tryu capturing again.
I have done this on another computer a week ago successfully so I know that I am correct in what I am doing
Any thoughts

Want to change edits done by Auto-Movie
Hi Everyone,
I let the auto-movie thing create a movie out of a bunch of clips I took
of a JV football game my wife's cousin played in. It did a pretty good
job, and I'm family happy with the initial results.
There are a few clips that it edited down to get just the action in the
clip (as I expected it would), but I want to change what part of the
clip is shown in the movie because my wife's cousin is in part that MM
edited out. For example, I have a clip that is 45 seconds long, and MM
included from 22 seconds to 35 seconds in the movie it created. I want
to leave this clip in, but I'd like to include from 32 to 45 seconds
instead because that video is more meaningful to me.
I also have some clips I'd like to make longer than what MM did...when I
try to stretch them out on the time line it won't let me.
How exactly can I do this?
Thanks,
Gary Tag: Picture freezes Tag: 15875

Total Newbie--Need Some Help!
I've been fooling around with capturing because I want to transfer some VHS
home movies to DVD. I'm using an Adaptec AVC-1100 for the video capture,
and the VCR is plugged into my sound card. WMM 2 is the *only* software
that has managed to capture audio and video--no complaints there--but the
finished (saved) movie jumps from one clip to the next, cutting out huge
chunks inbetween. When I capture, the DV-AVI option is grayed out, so I've
been using "Best Quality..." then saving as DV-AVI. On the "Collection"
screen, each clip logically leads into the next, but on the "Storyboard"
screen the problem starts--the clips are only a few seconds long, then the
next clip starts minutes ahead, leaving out quite a bit. What am I doing
wrong here? It's got to be something stupid and simple that I'm missing. Tag: Picture freezes Tag: 15854
Unable to add more transitions
Hi all. In Windows Moviemaker, I can drag and drop a
load of .WMV or .AVI files onto the storyboard, but when
I start adding video transitions, all goes well for a few
but then all of a sudden, I won't be allowed to add
more. When I try to drop them into the correct spot on
the storyboard, I get a black barred circle.
I am using Win XP Pro with SP-1 and all relevent updates,

Converting MSWMM To MP3:
I need to know where I can find a utility, if one exists, that converts Windows Movie Maker files (.MSWMM) into MP3s
If something like this exists, great. If it doesn't, why the heck not? Not everyone has Windows Movie Maker to play back on, ... or a system that supports it. Who was the genius who said you could only import these formats for the materials to a new file, but you cannot export to the source format
I want to share my files with friends who don't have the Movie Maker, and things like Media Player don't recognize MSWMMs. What the heck is that supposed to be, anyway. Why can't it just make and save in a normal, mainstream format? Tag: Picture freezes Tag: 15839
Yet Another "Can't Save Movie" Plea For Help
Out of nowhere, my MM2 refuses to save any movie file except to DV-AVI. I've been using it exclusively for quite some time and have become totally dependent upon it. Now I am getting the typical message about checking the amount of drive space, source files, etc. I checked them and all was fine. I read on the Microsoft site about increasing the page file and that also was no help. I tried reinstalling it, and again, same error message. I read just about everything on Papajohn's site and again, nothing worked. I would even be happy about going back MM1 to see if that works. I couldn't find on the XP disc the folder that was mentioned. And when I type in the DOS commands, I got an error message about no destination file being found. I went back to the Microsoft site and downloaded codecs and just about everything else I could find. I even changed the TEMP folderto the desktop.
The QASF.DLL is version 9 as it should be. I've got 258 ram, 1.2 gig processor and 7 free gigs on one drive and 8 on another. Outside of formatting my hard drive (which I absolutely can't do), I have no clue what else to do.
The only thing I did since the last time I saved a movie without a problem (Tuesday) was defrag both drives.
Please, if anyone has a suggestion, email me. I recently started a little side business of editing home videos and I've got people waiting for the finished product. Even if you don't have a suggestion regarding a fix to this problem, maybe someone could suggest another similar application that I could donwload and purchase.
Thanks in advance. Tag: Picture freezes Tag: 15834

Im using a Sony DCR-TRV460 (Digital 8 Camcorder) connected to the computer via USB Streaming.

Totally Confused
I am totally confused now and frustrated. I can not
figure out which format to use. To start what I have
done is use still photos in the movie maker and set them
to music as a movie. When I saved it as a wmv. file on
my pc all was fine. That burnt to a cd fine. But I can
not burn to a dvd at all. I tried saving it again as a
dv-avi file and it will not recognize it. So next I
converted it to a type II dv-avi to see if that works.
It now recognizes it but when I try to burn it it only
goes half way and then gives me an unknown error
message. I have just been told that is because I need to
save it as an mpeg not dv-avi. Can someone let me know
which one is it supposed to be? And if it is supposed to
be an mpeg how do you do that? And the software I am
using is Pinnacle Instant Cd/Dvd. Thanks for any help I
receive. Tag: Picture freezes Tag: 15818

next,I am given the choice of File mane and place to save

both options - Capture tape automatically OR Capture tape
manually. After pressing next, tape rewinds and starts,
process moves to second step, capturing video, then stops
with the following VERY HELPFUL message, "An unknown
error has occurred."
Is this a codec problem? I have tried all of the options
in the initial capture screens without success.

Image is tiny in WMM
When I upload images from my camcorder to WMM, the image is tiny in the middle of the screen. If I expand it, then its all pixelated and crappy. I know it will display better than that because i've played the recordings back directly through my TV and it looked fine on my 18" - 20" ish TV screen
