    - 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: Removing original soundtrack 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!

    - Sony Hi8 Handycam movies won't download I have an older Sony Hi8 camcorder that only has composite RCA and S video outputs. My older Sony Vio computer has composite RCA and S video inputs. I can view my movies through the computer as a T.V. input so I know that the computer can detect and read the camcorder signals. For some reason, movie maker does not recognize that my camcorder is plugged into the computer and I just get the message, no capture device detected. I have tried everything I know. I have Windows XT home version with all patches. My camcorder is CCD-TRV75 NTSC. Please help and thanks. -- kpace Tag: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61990

    - Movie Maker did not work! I had someone who scanned about 100 pictures for me on their movie maker. She burned to DVD and nothing happened. She E-mailed them to me and they came up with red Xs. I was able to get it to my hard drive, but unable to edit it. I went out and bought a new computer and had my old files put on the new computer. The movie has changed to 18 clips and I cannot seperate them to put in the correct order. Any suggestions??? -- Linda Tag: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61986

    - Blurry pictures and texts on the storyboard and avi file I imported my pictures to the collection pane. When I look at them using the viewer, they look sharp and no blurriness. However, when I drag the pictures to storyboard and play the video, they are blurry. I also created dv-avi file, and the quality of pictures are as bad as the ones that I saw on storyboard. Could someone explain how I can fix this problem? The size of pictures are 720x540 and 640x480. I saved the pictures with BMP. Thank you, -- Amy Tag: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61981

    - 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: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61964

    - 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. Do I have to consider tv screen safety area (about 10 percent from the edge of pictures) when I create still images? I am referring to this site: http://stream.uen.org/medsol/dvd/pages/dvdvid_work_graphics.html#3 Also, what is the best size to fill the screen? I do not want to have any distortion in my still images. Can I create them with the size 720X540 or the images have to be shrink into 720x480??? I would appreciate if if somebody can answer to this question. Thanks, -- Amy Tag: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61951

    - 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: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61944

    - Quality of video is very poor Can someone tell me why the quality of the photos in a WMM video I made are so poor? The original photos are of very good quality (2048 x 1536 - 24 bit) and were taken with a digital camera. I found working with the program a lot of fun, but was very disappointed with the photos.

    - I get mpg file is empty file when importing video My Noikon saves videos in MOV format, which is NOT supported by Windows Movie Maker {BUT SHOULD BE!}, so I have converted the files to MPG files, but when I try to import any of the converted videos WMM pops up with a window that says: The file D:\Cat Video from Nikon Camera\Silent Conversions\Close Up Face Shots.mpg is an empty file. But I can LOAD every one of these "EMPTY FILES" into any other prgram that plays MPG files and they play fine. So the files ARE NOT EMPTY! So how can I make WMM import these video clips? And why is it telling me they are "EMPTY FILES" when, in fact, THEY ARE NOT!??? Any help here would be very much appreciated it. I like the program and it works great for still photo's, but I want to be able to create some movies from several video clips I can put together. I have tried both importing them one at a time as well as a multi-import, each time WMM tells me the file(s) is(are) "empty", I am using the most current version 2.1 of WMM. I just don't understand how the software determines wether a file is empty, especially since NOT A ONE of the files I have tried to import are empty, the video is there, anyone know what is going on with this? Oh, the videos have also been resized (camera takes them in 640x480 DVD MOV format) to 320x240 MPG format. I have tried converting these MOV files into AVI and WMV as well, each time, I get the same "file is empty" error message. Please HELP! if you can. Tag: Removing original soundtrack Tag: 61811
