I'm a first time user. I'm trying to save a movie to a recordable CD. Movie
plays fine on the Storyboard. Try to save and get the Error message: This
project contains source files that are missing or have been modified after
import. Your project cannot be saved as a movie until the source files have
been located or deleted from the project.
Have checked source files and everything seems ok. Anyone got any suggestions?

==============================
Are you saving this as a backup or do
you expect the CD to play in a DVD player?

Do you see Red Xs on your Collection pane?

Maybe the following articles will offer some ideas:

John, Thanks. Trying to save to CD to give movie to a friend. No Red Xs on
the Collections pane, just the source clips. Read the atricle and tried
saving as a different file type and to harddisk rather than cd. Still same
error message. Some of the clips on the Storyboard are in a differnt order
than the source clips, but that shouldn't make a difference should it? Have
plenty on memory too.

Expand your timeline as much as you can. there is probably 1 little file
stuck in there somewhere that is no longer there. If you expand your
timeline view as much as possible you may see a Red X you hadn't seen
before.
