    - JPEG Resolution from PPT to MM I've seen the question, but no answer yet on this. I managed to create a moviemaker that solved my music syncing problem with my Powerpoint file, but the resolution of the finished jpegs is AWFUL -- blurry, pink hues on them. What can you do to have BOTH good pictures AND music that syncs correctly???? This was supposed to be a gift, but it's killing me already. PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU!

    - Captured video being broken into small clips Hi.... I'm running MM 2.1 on XP and capturing video from a Sony HandyCam The video is all captured but gets automatically broken up into clips. e.g....I'm capturing a 25 second (approx) segment of video. This was a continuous shot....there were no breaks in the recording. MM seems to have indiscriminately broken this up into 3 clips. This has happened to other captures I have done. Can anyone help with why this is happening and possibly how to deal with it? thanks chuck Tag: Translating MOV Files To Something WMM Will Support Tag: 66252

    - New to WMM I just discovered WMM (don't laugh - I've got 3 kids under age 4) and want to make movies from my still digital photos. I've managed to figure that much out, but I don't know how to save the movie so that I can give the disc to family members w/o computers to watch like a DVD. Can this be done? Your help is greatly appreciated as I don't have time to "play around" to figure it out myself. It's my in-laws anniversary and I'd like to make the movie for them tonight!

    - .wmv file HUGE! I just tried the program this week - ALL week - simple, I thought. Take all the pics from the big party, add music and send it to everybody who was here and family who couldn't make it... not. the finished file was nearly 5 mg, but when I saved it as a movie, it ballooned to 15 mg! I tried converting it to avi. then it was 25 mg. Who knew? obviously not I. I can't email it, can't even put it on photobucket - it stops at 61%. i am at a loss with this. Do you think it would decrease the file size if I took the individual photos into Photoshop and reduced them? I considered that, but the 4mg is way smaller than the combined total of the pics, so I assumed the program compressed it already.. AARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone help me? thanks in advance!

    - burned dvd doesn't play smoothly I used Windows Movie Maker to create a video. It looked and played perfectly on the computer screen. When I burned it to a DVD-RW the video played fine, but the audio skipped and cut in and out. I tried burning it at "slow" speed instead of "fastest", and that seemed to help for the first 3-5 minutes of the video, but then the skipping returned at the end. Is it due to the length of the video (14 minutes)? Please help!!! I am completely at a loss....... Tag: Translating MOV Files To Something WMM Will Support Tag: 66146

    - Video problems I am making a video on mircosoft movie maker and my imported video clips don't show up as video, only audio.

The files work as videos on windows media player and other programs, but not on movie maker.

    - Pixelan SpiceFX 4.0 for Movie Maker PIxelan SpiceFX 4.0 for Movie Maker was released today http://www.pixelan.com/mm/intro.htm I've been checking it for the past two weeks, and it's the first time I've been able to do pans and zooms of super high quality still pix even better than I can do with Photo Story 3. Here's a link to some of my test clips at vimeo... all the pans and zooms were done in MM2.1 or MM6 with this new tool. One of my source pictures is a panorama of the Jungfreau in Switserland, a JPG image of 14,525 x 2,476 pixels.... the width is more than twice the 7,200 pixel limit of Photo Story 3, yet the panning/zooming was easily done in Movie Maker 2.1.

    - Jpeg format - help! I am also getting the error message about source files. I have windows XP, there is plenty of space on the drive. I have also "x"d out the boxes under "tools - options". My story board consists of 100-200 jpeg pictures that I have edited in "Photoexpressions" with titles and captions. I have transitions on each frame. Used music from a cd that I have and only have 3 title overlays. The total length of the movie is a little less that 30 minutes. So I guess my question is...I'm trying to get out of the error message and I guess I might need to change my pictures from Jpegs to bitmaps. I don't know how to do that :( Is this something I can do within movie maker? I don't want to have to start all over again! This has taken me a month to do 30 min. This is my first time using movie maker and I'm getting very frustrated and may not use it again if this does'nt work. Please Help! Tag: Translating MOV Files To Something WMM Will Support Tag: 66085

    - 10 second file becomes 9 seconds when saved I'm new to MM, but have used Adobe After Effects for a few years, so I thought that it would be pretty simple to do some basic things with MM. Using MM Version 2.1.4026.0 on XP Pro. I have some uncompressed AVIs (video only) that I wanted to convert to WMV, open in MM, overlay titles and export. These are 10 seconds, 30 Frames Per Second looping AVIs, so getting the right length in and out is important for the loop. I converted from AVI using River Past Video Cleaner, Quality Based settings - quality set at 90. When I opened the 10 second WMV files in MM, overlay titles and save them as WMV, they export at 9 seconds long. Tried lots of files... So I tried just saving without titles and got the same result. Now in the MM preview window before saving, the duration of the WMV I brought in shows 9:93 (not like ANY time code I've ever seen before), but not a second short either. I opened the very same original WMV file in After Effects and it is - as expected 10 sec duration. Open the new saved WMV version (from MM) and it is 9 seconds. Trying to isolate the problem, I took the original AVIs into MM and saved them as AVI to see if the length stayed the same. The AVI saved from MM became 9:28. While the original is 10 seconds in duration. Still not correct, but .02 sec. off is not as bad as an entire second missing in the WMVs. I used G-spot to look at how the WMVs were being made. It tells me that the codec is WMV3 - WMP v9 (VC-1 Simple/Main) and the file type is ASF (WMA/WMV); Mime Type video/x-ms-asf. I am just baffled. I was testing this method as an easy way to put titles over a file in WMV format. After hours of researching, testing, reading everything I can find about the process - I'm not so sure that it is simple. I've been to the MVP sites, tried to educate myself on WMV and MM, but I'm getting nowhere! Please tell me that I am missing something obvious. I just can't believe that opening and saving a file would change its length. I would really appreciate some input, because this is one newbie that may never get beyond the beginner stage if I can't solve this problem. Thank you very much for your help.

    - How To Trim Popup List for "Menu Background" Options in Nero 6? I've been using Moviemaker and Nero 6 for a couple of years. When authoring a DVD in Nero, one of the options when creating the menu is "background". This gives you a visual choice of a plain background, a still picture, or a video, and also a choice to have an audio file play in the background while the menu is displayed. Every time I browse for and choose a new background selection while authoring a DVD, it gets added to a popup list that is stored somewhere and presented the next time I use Nero. After two years, this popup list is many pages long, and 80% of the files don't even exist on my computer any more. There does not seem to be any option for deleting items from this popup list. How do I remove old choices from the list? I don't want to totally remove and re-install the software, because of the 20% of things I'd like to keep on the list. thanks, Martin Tag: Translating MOV Files To Something WMM Will Support Tag: 66040

    - Aspect ratio problems I am using Windows Media Encoder to capture presentations and program demonstrations with accompanying narration in a Dell notebook running at 1440 x 900. That's working great, except that I want to trim the videos to get rid of the section at the beginning where I turn encoding on and the section at the end where I want to turn encoding off. The files are reasonable size, the quality is excellent, and they seem to play fine on computers with other resolutions so I don't really want to tamper with them much. I've tried using Windows Media File Editor but there doesn't seem to be a way to move through the file one frame at a time to get the perfect trim spots so I decided to try Movie Maker. I have read PapaJohn's excellent article on custom profiles and have used several but I am having awful problems with the screen resolution. ------------ In the original unedited video, the recorded screen measures 7.25" wide x 5.5" tall, which is 4:3. When I try a custom profile set to 1440 x 900 (my computer's native resolution), the resulting recorded screen measures 6 x 5.5 if I use the 4:3 aspect ratio and 7.75 x 5.375 if I use the 16:9 aspect ratio. IOW, the resulting image is nearly square or way too wide, not the 4:3 that the original video is. I even tried a custom profile with the video size set to same as video input, but that profile doesn't show up in the list of Other settings (as PapaJohn's article says will happen). How do I use Movie Maker to do nothing more than trim my video without changing the file size (other than making it smaller because pieces will be edited out) and especially without changing the recorded screen size? I really appreciate any and all suggestions and help. I will be recording my lectures in a statistical programming class this summer and would like to be able to do basic editing to the files without making too many changes to the original recorded video. I hope that I'm just missing something very basic. Thanks, liz Tag: Translating MOV Files To Something WMM Will Support Tag: 66033

I have an Olympus Stylus Verve digital camera with video capture abilities.
It uploads nicely to my computer, and plays in quicktime and can upload to
youtube fine.
The only problem I have is that there is no way for me to edit it.
WMM won't accept the type of file it is.
I think it's a MOV file.
Does anyone know how to translate the file so WMM will let me edit it and
stuff?
I'm rather new at this and not super awesome at a computer, and help would
be really appreciated!!
Thank you so much.
PLEASE HELP!
