    - Rendered Video Crop Cuts Off Top of Frame Hello, I am importing .avi format video 512x384 30fps into MovieMaker from a GoPro Hero3 camera. I have a clip in which most of the relevant detail is at the very top of the frame. Whenever I render to .wmv file (NTSC 4:3), the frame is cropped so that I lose the data I am trying to follow. I have tried no effects and also the Pixelan A1 Hold effect. Both have the same problem. I also tried most of the available output format options in MovieMaker (High Res Video, NTSC, etc.), all result in same crop/clip problem. Does anyone know why my rendered video is getting cropped so that the top ~5% of the frame is lost? Related question: Available output formats for NTSC 4:3 seem to support very small 160 pixels wide, small 320x240, larger 640x480, and 720x480. I am sure there are a few more options for PAL and 16:9. However, I cannot find a way to render to output 512x384 to match my input resolution. Is there a way to render 512x384 resolution? What is the standard way of dealing with this input format? - Thanks, David Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63313

    - Clips I have a family DVD I have done, is there a way to go in now and add numbers (clips -i assume is how it is termed) so that I can seperate the 10 families on this DVD, for example my great grandparents as Clip 1 and then my great uncles' family as clip 2 and so on, so that there is a number seperation, like when you are watching movie DVD's, so that if you wanted to skip to a particular family, you could do that?? -- becca Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63310

    - Can't save as a movie file OK, I am pretty adept at WMM. I got a newer computer to be able to handle the requirements of video editing etc. However, after a few months of success (also having converted analog to digital and edited it, movie maker will no longer allow me to save my projects (long OR short--and I mean even 2 minutes here) as an AVI-DV file. I refuse to save as anything else as I want to keep the quality (especially of my DV stuff). I have spent HOURS with MS support and am on level 3 at present but STILL they cannot figure out the problem. When I save as AVI-DV, it starts to save and the minutes count down, but then they stop and begin to count up to infinity if I'd let them. HELP!!! The whole reason I bought this new computer was so I could do these videos of family footage to give as Christmas presents. PLEASE help! Mr. Inzer---I've seen a lot of your replies and hope you have some ideas. And yes, I have Explorer 7 but have always had it on this machine even when MMaker was working fine.

    - Editing/Trimming-Can you delete portions?? First time using Windows Movie Maker and I am hoping to delete portions of my 28 min clip but I am not sure I can do this with MovieMaker. Simply put I would like to trim my movie by removing portions. But the clip trimming seems to just allow me to keep the portion that I trim and not the opposite. Do you follow what I am attemping to explain? Is there a way to just take out, for example, five or more 2-minute portions or eliminate portions that I wish to?

    - Can't import .MPG files anymore Many times I imported .MPG files from my Sony DSC-T9 photo camera in Movie Maker (version 5.1 build 2600.xpxp_sp2_qfe.070227-2300:ServicePack 2), vs. 2.1.4026.0). Suddenly it didn't work anymore. After selecting the .MPG file I get a message that an error occured and that Movie Maker shuts down. It also occurs with older .MPG files which I imported successfully in the past. I still can import .AVI files, but I don't like to convert all my .MPG files into .AVI files since this was not necessary in the past. I hope someone can help me.

    - Adjusting audio fade in/out durations I'm using Movie Maker 6.0 from my Vista.. I'm adjusting the audio on my video clips and music files to fade in and out but the time that the program takes to fade out a song from full volume to silence is very short - so short that it's not far from sounding like I'm not using the fade at all. I know I can adjust how long the video Fades are in the Transitions menu, but can I do this with audio fades? How can I adjust the fade length to be longer than what it sounds like (less than 1 second)? Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63256

    - Movie Maker keeps closing down Hi, as the title says my MM keeps closing down on me, I don't even get an error message when it happens. Ive restarted my comp, tried it again, same thing happens. I was gonna uninstall it to reinstall it again, but I cant find it in the remove programs list, so I tried to just reinstall over it, but still the same problem. It will let me on it for a few moments before it closes and I tried to view the codecs through WMM in case they where causing the problem, but for some reason I cant even get the option to do that anymore. I was going to do a system restore, but I have too many important documents on my computer to do that. Can someone please help me?

    - Shuts off without notice Hi! I'm in desperate need of some help here. Checked papaJohn's site but it all flew over my head, really. So if anyone could explain this to me in a way I can understand I'd be eternally grateful! Didn't have so much trouble with Movie Maker in the beginning, but starting a few months ago it crashed whenever I imported a too large file and cut out some scenes. Lately it'd freeze even if the imported file was a small one. Now it's started to shut down (without any notice of error) when saving the file as a film or mp3. It saves half-way, then shuts down. I really need some help with this! (And my english isn't too good neither, maybe that's why I can't really understand PapaJohn's site) Thanks, Psy Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63253

    - Editing clip names When I sort clips by NAME which is the date and time (2/21/2002 9:23 AM) I get clips out of time sequence because of the way the dates and time are created. It would have to be 2002/02/21 03:04:37 AM or yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:33 ap to sort in the correct time sequence. Can I go to some file and correct this or do I have to rename each clip?

    - Titles In my Windows XP version of MM I had more choices of title animations. I was able to put titles on the clips in different locations and there were many more effects.

    - Highest Resolution for Slides? Hi, I used MM a year ago to make a slide show in .wmv format (with great results) and am trying to relearn some of the finer points I've forgotten. (I prefer MM to PS mainly because I find it easier to synch the images to music.) I am making another slide show of about 300 digital photos. All of my images were taken with a 4mp digicam and edited in Photoshop, but left at their native resolution of 2272x1704x72dpi. I did a trial run and tried to save my project as a .wmv file, using a profile I think I downloaded from PapaJohn's site last year: SlideShow-1024x768WMV9. (I am aiming for the absolute highest quality possible.) When I went to create the .wmv file, I got an error message about the file size being too big or something to that effect. Is this the FAT-32 issue that I've read about in other posts on this forum? If using the above profile, should I downsize my images to 1024x768? Will that affect final output quality? I ran another test with the images at 800x600, but while it wrote the .wmv file, the image quality was noticeably less. I then did a third test, using only about 60 images - but still at 2272x1704 - and it turned out fabulous. So I guess my question is: Are the images sized at 2272x1704 wasting pixels and increasing the file size unnecessarily, given the limitations of the 1024x768 output? And if this isn't a FAT-32 issue, are there any other workarounds? I was thinking I could break the project into 5 or 6 smaller increments and reassemble (I have BlazeMediaPro which can do this) but am unsure of how the stitch points will look, and would have to separate them by musical piece. Additionally, I would not be able to put transitions at those points, either, and between songs are some of the more obvious places to have transitions. Sorry for the long-winded post. Any ideas or advice would be welcome! Thanks! Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63211

    - Help! WMM2.1 crashing - blue screen My system: Windows XP, Home Edition, Version 2002, SP2 - AMD Athalon 64 Processor, 3400+, 2.20 GHz, 2.00 GB of RAM, Physical Address Extension. I've been using WMM2.1 without problems. Recently it started to hang/freeze up when I was capturing video (from my Sony Digtal Handycam via firewire). Now it is just crashing. I come back to it and the computer has restarted - recovered from "serious error." The Windows error reporting displays a page that says it's a device driver problem. I don't know what this could be. I've tried a number of things I've seen online, including unchecking, moving the temp file to my recently defragmented "D" drive, I don't display preview during capture. I don't understand codecs, but I have a lot of .ax files show up (81) when I search for them in My Computer. Only two come up in the compatibility window of WMM2.1 (both from Nero). I've tried unchecking them, but that doesn't help. Please help me. I have video of my baby boy that I want to edit and share. I don't understand why this stopped working.

    - Movie Maker 6.0 for Vista I'm trying to save a movie sildeshow I did in movie maker 6.0 for Vista and want to put it on my website. Only thing is, what bitrate should I save it so that the pictures in the don't look pixelated? Saving videos isn't the same as it was in the XP version. I made a video slideshow using the XP version using XP home on my old pc...I then uploaded it to a video hosting service SplashCast so I could put it on my website. That's what I want to do again, but the closest way to save it that's like the previous xp version in the new Movie Maker is by clicking on Publish movie, This Computer, and then click on File Size and changing the file size changes the bitrate, movie and file size....not sure what bitrate to use?

    - Compatibility List (Codecs/Filters) in MM2.1 Here's a sideline note about Movie Maker 2.1, something I found when working on my latest project... a 4-1/2 minute flick about Chicago. Source files were DV-AVI files, about 6 WMA music files, and a WMV Photo Story. The project and source files were on an external USB drive. My laptop's Tools > Options > compatiblity tab codec/filter list had 62 line items. By default all but one or two were checked, which lets the unchecked ones 'work with' with Movie Maker. - With the default settings it took a full 4 minutes to open the project file - With all line items unchecked it took 5 seconds to open... and project editing worked snappier and fine This sets the stage for a change in routine use of Movie Maker - I tend to let software work with its defaults until I have an issue to resolve or a specific setting to change... so 60 codecs were allowed to interface. - I'm now going to leave all the line items unchecked and turn them on one at a time as needed... such as the ffdshow codec to be able to use Motion JPEG video files. It also makes me wonder what's happening during the project opening. Why with the 60 codecs checked does it take so long? More to ponder. -- website references are to www.papajohn.org PapaJohn Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63184

    - Alternative to WMM I tried editing some home movies from a DVD using WMM. Since WMM couldn't accept MPEG-2 files, I used AVI. However, the AVIs have degraded quality: there are some transient splotches and motion artifacts. I've seen web postings that talk about converting MPEG-2 to other formats, but it seems likely they'd have problems too. Does anybody have a sure-fire straightforward way to use WMM and preserve the video quality? I have WMM v2.1.4046.0. Otherwise, is there a low-cost alternative to WMM that will preserve the video quality? Pinnacle, maybe? Thanks. Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63156

    - Video Contest... and Can't Save Movie The Virtual Earth group is running a video contest. Here's a link... http://on10.net/Blogs/larry/want-to-win-a-zune/ I submitted my entry... a 4-1/2 minute flick Chicago Summer Fun... rendered twice: once for MSN Soapbox for a higher quality copy http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?vid=5e36fdc5-fcd6-4425-800e-9c362267dc7b and then for YouTube using my custom profile http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-1NN-MAz7M The project includes 4 video clips made from Microsoft's Virtual Earth. The project went along well from start to submittals, but last night when I tried to save an archival copy to a DV-AVI file I got the message about Movie Maker not being able to save the movie to the specified location. Verify... etc. etc. It was the first time I'd seen the message during this project. My project and source files were on two different external USB drives, which made me wonder about a number of things. After lots of problem-solving I concluded the issue was some sort of corruption in the project file. The file was highly usable but corrupt. Stripping clips from the project one at a time... until I had just one clip left... didn't resolve it. But copying/pasting the clips from the corrupt project file to a new one let me save it to DV-AVI fine. I added the info to my website's Problem Solving > Can't Save a Movie page as another reason that can cause the issue... a 'corrupt project' file can let you save to any quality wmv file but not to a DV-AVI. I'd been working on the project for a number of days and don't know when the corruption started. My guess it was one of the times when my CPU overheated in the middle of a rendering, abruptly shutting off the system. It's not too late to do a contest submittal... and never too late for more info about why a project can't be saved. -- website references are to www.papajohn.org PapaJohn Tag: Video capture device was not detected - but its there in device Tag: 63153

When I connect my panasonic camcorder via firewire it appears in
imaging devices in device manager. Funnily though, it pops up the
autoplay box but its completely empty.

Anyway, movie maker says video capture device not detected. Any ideas?

Is there any way to completing remove the device from windows and then
reconnect it so that it rediscovers it ?
