    - How to download Movie Maker Hi there, I searched some other posts about how to download Movie Maker but they all seemed kinda out of date and all offered different things. Can someone please tell me how to download it? If it's relevant, I have Windows 5.1 (Service Pack 2)--or at least, that's what it says if I have gone to right place! Thanks.

    - Unspecified error plaquing everyone? Hey there. I'm having this same "Unspecified error" in WMM that TONS of others seem to have but no one seems to be able to fix. WMM version 1 worked fine for a long time for me using all kinds of file types( including jpg which a ton of you for some reason think don't work)...Anyway one day it just decided to stop working by giving me the unspecified error whenever importing things or adding things to the storyboard. So, I upgraded to SP2 to get WMM ver. 2...... I was in high hopes this would fix my problem, but alas it has not. Is there ANYONE out there with an answer or maybe a course of action that might help???? The whole convering files doesn't help a bit....so I know thats not the issue. Someone...please...help!?!?!

    - Narration 'cut' short Hello All, Recently I have been having a problem with the narrations on my MM being cut short. As an example, I can record the narration and see the recording time of 29 seconds. However when I stop the recording and it adds the audio to the timeline it may only be 12 seconds (time is different). I can not figure out what is causing the issue. Any suggestions are welcome. I have tried recording different lengths (10 second intervals) and it will cut each one down, but not a consistent amount. I really do not want to do an uninstall/reinstall, but not sure what else to try. I have just under 8GB free on the hard drive so that should not be an issue. It worked fine the last 4-5 months and just starting acting up in the last week. I have not installed/uninstalled anything else for quite some time. Again, any help is appreciated!

    - A though one: Deleted original source clip and WMM won't let me fi I posted this on another site and decided to give it a shot here... =================================== Hello, I think this is a tricky one. I have tried everything that I could think of. Here is the stoty: Added a 58:00 avi clip to my timeline... did a lot of chopping out of it ... so it turned into a 20 minutes, 30 little clips ... the exited WMM . my wife logged in and thought: "G, what is this 13 gb movie file doing in the desktop?" BAM source deleted. I tried 4 different "UNdelete" programs in windows but none could even find the file to bring it back... That 13gb file was created of 2 other smaller files. So I was able to recreate this 13gb file.... as far as I can tell (properties and all) it is exactly the same 13gb file I had before my wife deleted... but now on the time line when I try to Locate the Source (on the clips that have the little red X) WMM tells me the file isn't close to the original one.... Please Please think hard.. how can I recuperate this? I could just re-edit the new 13gb file, but it took me 3 hours originally... (many many cuts) Any ideas????? Thanks ============================= Re: A though one: Deleted original source clip and WMM won't let me to browse for source Posted: 04-20-2006 12:19 PM It it has exactly the same properties (same size, same signature, etc.) and the same name and same location (check by clicking on the Red X), then it *might* work. But if any of these are different (especially the size and file contents) then you would seem to be out of luck... -=Blaine=- ==================== Re: A though one: Deleted original source clip and WMM won't let me to browse for source Posted: 04-20-2006 01:31 PM exactly the same. even same location..... is there a way to force WMM to plug that clip in ? or \can you think of anything else i can do to not loose all the edit outs I did.... kind like replicate them on the new file?

    - How To Combine Video and Audio Hi all, Using DVD Decrypter, I've now been able to successfully import the video into Windows Movie Maker.

    - Importing "VOB" Files That Were Decryted Hi all, I burnt some tv onto a dvr+ on my dvd recorder. The files are/were in "VOB" format. I used DVD Decrypter to transfer to files from the dvd to my hard drive. I then changed the extension from "VOB" to "MPG". The new file plays perfectly in "Windows Media Player" version 10. But, when I try to "Import into Collections" the new file, the following prompt comes up: "The file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\1.MPEG cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again." Any thoughts?

    - File Size Issue Hi, we just found out about Windows Media Encoder and have created some screen capture videos with it. The file size of the videos created with WME are quite small which we love, and the dimensions of the video are enormous (1280X1024). Unfortunately, after importing a video created in WME into Windows Movie Maker to make a few small changes (adding a title and fade-in), the size of the file that WMM exports becomes enormous, and the quality degrades noticably. Here is our information: Video file exported from WME Type: Windows Media Audio/Video File Size: 7.96MB Width: 1280 Height: 1024 Audio Bit Rate: 295kbps Channels: 1 (mono) Video Data Rate: 250kbps The same file modified by WMM and exported Type: Windows Media Audio/Video File Size: 38.9MB Width: 720 Height: 480 Audio Bit Rate: 907kbps Channels: 2 (stereo) Video Data Rate: 768kbps The first file actually is larger on the screen (note the width and height) than the second file. Also, the audio quality on both files sounds the same to me. None of the save options in WMM have any width and height sizes that even come close to the orginal file. This really frustrates me because the file is smaller, and of better quality after coming out of WME, but we need to use WMM in order to make the video look professional. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. -karl Tag: Windows Message Manager Has encountered a problem Tag: 49818

    - Big difference between DV-AVI and High Quality Video(NTSC)? I am importing my home videos from my camcorder's mini-dv tapes using windows movie maker 2. Is there a big difference between the DV-AVI and High Quality Video(NTSC) formats?

I will then be using NeroVision Express SE (OEM version of Nero with the DVD Plug-In which I purchased) to create and burn the DVD file.

I played around with changing the ways to "SAVE" the finished product and even with the highest quality for small there was no change. What am I doing wrong? Or is this just the best it can do?

    - General movie maker problems There's somethign very wrong with my movie maker. At first I thought it was a RAm problem so I deleted a lot and that's no longer problem but the problem remains. The problem is that Moive Maker seems to lock up when I do pretty much anything. Importing files, resizing clips, entering titles, even opening the transitions does oen of three things. Firstly, it just freezes and comes up with "Windows Movie Maker has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience", or it closes instantly, or " The instruction at "0x7c09723d" referenced memory at "0x2037436". The memory could not be "written". That one appears once or twice again after I click OK. POint is, it's virtually impossible to do ANYTHING without it screwing up. It's got worse and worse over time until finally it's unusable. -- Tag: Windows Message Manager Has encountered a problem Tag: 49782

    - Slideshow video freezes but audio continues My wife created a slideshow of old family photographs for my mom's 85th birthday along with some songs on an audio track. It plays fine in Movie Maker but when it is "finished" in NTSB high quality format for burning on a DVD (for distribution to my siblings) and I let it play in Windows media player the video freezes while the audio track continues just as it does in Movie Maker. I've tried to render it several different times and it always freezes at a different point, so I don't thing it is related to the photograph being displayed at the time. The first failure occurred at a transition from one song to another so I thought it was related to the songs involved, but as I indicated above, it fails at different points every time I render it, so it doesn't seem to be related to the music track. My brothers/sister and mom are really anxious to get a copy of this "movie" so I could really use some suggestions.
