    - Problem inserting a video clip Hi there, I've decided to insert a video clip at the beginning of my movie. When I do, the clips after it get adjusted accordingly however, things like the audio and title overlays do not. Is there some way to make sure that everything gets shifted accordingly or perhaps a way of "locking" overlays, etc. to certain video clips? Thank you, Carlo. Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25096

Remote files using http, ftp, and other internet protocols cannot be imported. Please copy the files to your disk to use with Windows Movie Maker.[file path]" The file path points to an .avi file on my local hard drive, so I'm rather confused... any ideas???

    - Video Capture to MM 2 via ieee 13984 firewire, I have posted the following firewire capture problem a couple times before and tried different suggestions by this newsgroup with no solutions . This is a very confusing problem and I don't see another problem posted that is similar to mine. I will try to explain as follows: I'm not an expert with computer technology , as you can see, but trying. First of all I purchased the ZR85 Cannon Camcorder ( from DEll ) and was told that I would need the ieee 1394 firewire card and cable to capture video from my camcorder into Movie Maker II for editing, etc. I also purchased the card and cable. I installed the card and cable and from what I understand from Dell's limited tech support that it was installed correctly. They directed me to Device Manager and it seems computer recognized card and cable. No question marks, etc beside name in device mananger. Problem: When trying to capture audio and video into Movie Maker II software I am getting a scrambled, distorted video in catpure window. Audio is coming through. It seems to be downloading the way it should, rewinds tape in my camcorder, etc, but the above problem exists. I was told by someone in this newsgroup to try Windv ( free software ) which I did and the same problem exist. I have downloaded Microsoft SP 2 which includes Movie Maker II for the second time. Took about 6 hours to download >> problem still exists. What is really confusing about this problem is, I can download photos, transitions and video effects from MM back to my camcorder with no problem. What is going on ??? I don't think there is anything wrong with card or cable otherwise how could I get video back into camcorder. Anyone with any solution suggestions, comments, etc., will be greatly appreciated. I am exhausted !!!!!!! Where are you PaPa John ??????? Note: It doesn't sound like it is the software either, because it is unlikely that both MM and Windv would do the same thing. What else is there, some sort of setting on camcorder or in software ??? Help !!!!!!!!! Thank everyone for their time. My Email is walkercew@aol.com. Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25091

    - How to remove sections of one avi file? I converted a 40 minute VHS tape to digital through a Canopus A/D convertor and imported it with Movie Maker. I did not create clips so I have one big (8GB) file. I would like to edit out certain parts of it to reduce the size but haven't been able to figure out how to do it, if possible. I tried creating clips but it didn't work. If I use the start trim point and end trim point, it doesn't help me since I'm using it on one big file. Can I do what I want or do I need a different, more sophisicated program? Thanks, Steve Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25086

    - Do I Have 1 Or 2? How can I tell if I have MM version 1 or 2. When I look at properties it just says movie maker. I'm already in the middle of a test project so I don't want to try an update yet though. (afraid i'll lose it.) I downloaded SP2 when I got my new system about a month ago but I've read that MM2 doesn't always "take". When I'm done with this test movie I'll be back looking up the common "drop frame" question and some others I havn't seen posted yet. Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25076

    - want to keep MM1, reinstall sp2.and have read papajohn's website b I callend DELL today and we deisntalled SP2, and MM1 is now back. And my computer is not running as well as it did with SP2. So I want to reinstall SP2 and keep MM1. I read the information at http://www.eicsoftware.com/PapaJohn/MM2/MM2.html I think I have two versions of MM1 on my harddrive: c:/windows/servicepackfiles/i386/moviemk which is 788KB (created September 2, 2004) and c:/Program Files/Movie Maker which is 836 KB (created September 2, 2004) I am so confused and frustrated. All the movies and stills are of my two children and I just don't want to fiddle with the program that I use to send their antics to family around the world. Do I have two copies of MM1? I would really appreciate receiving a step-by-step advice on how to keep one version of MM1 "safe" when I re-install SP2. Please. Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25053

    - Black preview screen when running pictures show. MY SOLUTION: After no success trying a lot of changes i found out the followinf solution: 1. Be sure to backup all your important jobs 2. Enter in to save mode 2. Rename the directory Movie Maker 3. Boot your system. 4. Take your Windows XP CD and make Windows Install on the same Windows directory (it is called Upgrade install) 5. After install, rename to Movie Maker again (in safe mode). 6. At the end the system will start up with pictures "working" in the preview window. I tryed my solution in two diferent PC's with entire success. With regards Manors Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25041

    - Black screen on playback I made a movie in Windows Movie Maker 2 using digital photos and some music. I added fade transitions in between pictures and finished with some credits. After I saved it to my computer I tried playing it back. Everything worked fine, video and music was synced, but the screen went black about halfway through the video, which was about 9 minutes long. It remained black for the rest of the video. I have tried saving it several times. Each time the video goes black at different points in the movie. Help? Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25038

    - Trimmed Clips Sticking in MM1.1... Hello! A few days ago, I was asked to attempt a video edit using MM (basically, b/c my boss figured that I could learn the program). Well, I have achieved moderate success, but have had great difficulty with trimmed clips sticking. I'm using transitions between clips (the help section isn't very descriptive here), but I find the clips sticking even with no transition. The background is that this came from one large, long file that I seperated into clips...inserted into the timeline, and trimmed. My company is still running their own tests on XP SP2, which means that I don't have access to MM2.1. Does anyone have a fix or an idea for this. I was able to moderately correct this on my first vid (still sticks a bit), but I have no idea what I did. Please help if possible. Thanks! Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25033

    - MM2.1 stops responding during storyboard edit MM2 freezes after a few minutes of usage when editing the timeline. MM2 is the only application that locks up â?? all other PC apps work fine. The only way out is to run Task Manager and kill the MM2 process. This is REALLY frustrating as I am creating a video presentation to be shown in public this weekend and what should take an hour or two to complete is now taking 3 or 4 hours! ..and I am running out of time! (Holy Hosed Codecs Batman!!) I have read several postings about MM2 â??crashingâ??, â??freezingâ??, and basically getting totally hosed. I have followed the Codec & Acceleration suggestions by Papa John (who, by the way, totally ROCKS! Great web site PJ! Thank you very much for all you do for this cause!!)â?¦ and have followed the few lame attempts by Microsoft to give the APPEARANCE of helpingâ?¦ and have tried other â??hintsâ?? within this newsgroup. Steps have included, but not been limited to: uninstalled ALL of the DVD and Video applications on my laptopâ?¦ renamed all Codecs (that can be renamed)â?¦ installed DirectX9câ?¦ lowered hardware accelerationâ?¦ tweaked the settings on the NVIDIA video cardâ?¦ installed Windows Media 10 (not sure what good it did, but itâ??s cool!)â?¦ used the â??Delete Codecs Utilityâ?? provided by one of the kind folks in this newsgroupâ?¦ turned off autorecoveryâ?¦ unchecked all codecs listed in MM2 optionsâ?¦ sprinkled garlic around my chairâ?¦ and chanted â??BILL IS GREATâ??â?¦ â??BILL IS GREATâ??â?¦ 15 times. No cigar. The problem is more pronounced when using collections with many pictures and the storyboard contains a lot of events (whatever â??a lotâ?? means). This production contains no video. It consists entirely of jpg images (pictures) set to music (wma) and fancy schmancy transitions with a few titles sprinkled in. I am using ONLY one song roughly 3 to 4 minutes in length. Photo Story is not an option. I like MM2â?¦ I just wish it worked! I looked at Adobe Premiere.. but itâ??s REALLY expensive and extremely unfriendlyâ?¦ as are most Adobe products.. but thatâ??s a topic for another discussion group. The only thing that seems to buy more time after a crash is to run the Disk Cleanup utility and purge everything it selects. MM2 still hangs, but I can usually work for 7 mins instead of 5. Here is my system configuration: Toshiba Satellite Pro M10â?¦ Intel Pent 1.40GHzâ?¦ 512MB RAMâ?¦ Win XP Pro SP2â?¦ NVIDIA GeForce4 420 graphics cardâ?¦ running 1024 x 768 screen resolution at highest (32 bit) colorâ?¦ 40GB hard drive with over 10GB free.. 1000-2000 MB swap file. Any ideas? Help me Obi-wan. Youâ??re my only hope. ~Sark Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25032

    - Sony DCR-TRV340 Digital8 bad resolution I record using Digital8 on my Sony camcorder and whenever I play it back on the computer it seems to be at a low resolution. I have a fairly fast computer that has a 2.8 Ghz CPU with a 128 MB Sapphire Radeon 9000 video card, 1 GB RAM and 80 GB hard drive and I wouldn't think that I would have a low resolution problem. Is this normal? I would expect the computer to play at a better resolution than the doing it the convential way...i.e. using my TV/VCR hookup with the camcorder hooked up to the VCR. How can I make the picture less jerky with better resolution on the computer? I want to use my DVD burner to record the video I put on the computer. By the way, I am using Windows XP Pro. Should I be using XP Media Center instead? I'm new to all this recording DVD stuff. Sylvia. Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 25013

    - Dropped Frames in Analog Capture I've been tryiong to capture video off my Sony analog Handycam. When I capture at 320x240, it works great, even at the highest quality. But when I try to capture at 640x480 (for DVD), I start to get alot of dropped frames after about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. I'm using an HP 2.1G P4, 512M RAM, with an 80G HD. That should be plenty of processing power. I also defragged twice and shut down all unneeded apps. It was even worse when I tried to capture through Adobe Premiere.

    - Help with camcorder to PC (format etc) Hi all... Some basic questions I hope someone can help me with! I have just purchased a Canon MV530i. If I transfer video from the camcorder to the PC would I be correct to assume it was in "DV" format? When transferring video from the camcorder to the PC what quantity of disk space is required, is there a typical 10 mins of video =1Gb disk space? Assuming this is correct then if I use MM2 does this application supports the input of video in the "DV" format? If I then want to burn to DVD what format would you convert the edited video to before burning? Any help appreciated. Regards, Paul Tag: Slowmotion Tag: 24965
