    - editing/copying MM2 using different computers We just learned to use MM2 yesterday. My daughter's group (12 years old) would each like to edit a portion of the movie. I burned it to a CD, but I cannot open it (how do you open the file?). How would each member edit their portion and how would we re-assemble the whole thing (assuming each has MM2 and CD burner). I read a post that was similar, but I need a lot more detail. We're new at this! Thanks! Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30641

    - DV-AVI I am very new to this! - I have a Sony MiniDV Camcorder and am using Windows Movie Maker. I want to capture the video as DV-AVI but this option is not enabled - although the option shows on the screen I cannot click on it. The only available options are "best quality for playback on my computer" and "other settings". Other settings does not include anything about DV-AVI. I have captured video using a different program as DV-AVI. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanx Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30635

    - Black screen with sound only instead of movie Ok... I've figured out how to transfer my video files from my camera to my computer and from my computer into Windows Movie Maker with all the snazzy features etc and everything works until I convert it to a movie. It takes a long time and this isn't a problem but after it's converted to a movie file, I try to play it back and the first few clips come out with sound playing but no picture and then a couple of clips in, it plays normally. Any answers? Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30633

    - Can't find Movie Maker I reformatted my HD last weekend and I'm piecing things back together. I'm trying to find Win Movie Maker 2. The MS page says it is included in SP2.

    - System memory and Moviemaker performance I have just started playing with video capture so I apologize if my question is an amateur one... I have an AMD Athlon XP 2.4, with 512 MB of RAM and a 200GB 7200 RPM hard drive. I used my capture device to capture about 40 mins of video, in MPEG format. The filesize was about 608 MB. When I tried to import this clip into MovieMaker, it grinded for about 20 minutes until finally responding again. The hard drive and entire system strained non-stop during this time. Once it did respond I was not able to do anything with the clip without the never-ending grinding again. I was watching Task Manager and did not see Moviemaker use any more memory, so I am not sure what it was doing, but it is certainly not useable with a clip of this size. I have imported some smaller clips and the response was much faster. What do I need to do to speed this up? Do I need to have more system emory than the size of the files I am importing? Can I import a file without having it automatically cut it up into "clips", which also seems to take some time? Any advice appreciated. Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30626

    - After hotfix still can't capture from Sony DV I have in the past been able to capture mini-DV using firewire through my Audigy sound card. Now I can't seem to do this on the PC. I installed the SP2 hotfix, and still cannot capture. However, my firewire works with my ipod and my external hard drive. I get the "bing" connection noise and transfers work. I went into regedit and set the speed to 3 from 2. Neither my Canopus ADVC100 or the Sony mini-DV camcorder are recognized (no "bing" noise). Any suggestions of what to try next?

    - Hangs at Import... I've been trying to import using an S-video cable and an audio Y cable into the video 1 ports of an Angel MPEG card (which I use as a TV tuner) in a Dell Dimension from a Sony Handycam. When I didn't have the Y cable plugged up, the video came through. Once I hooked up the Y cable, the audio came through but the video didn't (just a black screen). Both times, however, MM got stuck at Importing... with the bar completely green and never went to the test part of the pop-up window. When I got tired of waiting (I gave it over an hour figuring it just took a long time to process), I clicked Cancel, and it still didn't shut down. Then I went to Task Mgr to shut it down, and it told me that MM was waiting on input from me. This is my first day using this program, so please excuse me if I'm WAY ignorant about all this. Any suggestions?? Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30566

    - Creating DVD with MovieMaker 2.1 Hi, My apologies if this has been dealt with elsewhere. I am looking for a quick step-by-step for using MM2.1 to capture from my DV camera to DVD. I have successfully connected and captured one tape to a video file, but I learned at the end of the process that DVD is not one of the output formats. Is there a simple way to get from my DV camcorder to DVD? I am not doing a lot of editing or anything like that. Just some basic titles and little else. I just want to get my tapes onto DVD for archival purposes. Thanks a lot for your guidance. Keith Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30532

    - Problem capturing video from ADSTech DVD Xpress Hello all... I recently purchased a USB 2.0 video capture device by ADSText called DVD Xpress.

    - Video Capture I have been struggling with video capture in Movie Maker 2, Adobe Premier and one or two other Video editing programes. I use a Canon camcorder with a firewire connection. After many hours of frustration and checking of computer and camera I finally discovered the reason for not being able to capture the video. On my camcorder there are 4 recording settings shortplay, longpplay, extended sp and extended lp. Video capture on all the software seems only work when the recording has been done in sp or lp mode due to the loss of data on the extended recording mode.

    - Newbie trying to make edits to finished movie I work for a non profit and we had a volunteer put together a promotional film for us using video, stills, narration, music and titles. The finished product is great, but there are some errors that need to be corrected before we can use it, and the volunteer isn't available anymore. He gave me a CD supposedly with everything I need on it to edit, but since I've never used Movie Maker (I have XP home & MM2.1). I've read lot's of info about how to get started. I also copied all the contents from the CD onto my computer. Here's my problem: I imported all the files from the CD into collections, and can open the project, but the timeline shows big red X's instead of a thumbnail. Also there is no audio that shows on the timeline and the only thing that plays is the title overlays. I've tried to browse for 'missing files' but get an error message that the file I found doesn't exactly match the original. When I looked at the properties of each file on the timeline it said the location was something that looked like his computer, but after I copied everything to my hard drive and re-imported the files, it said the location was where I had copied everything, but it still wouldn't work correctly. The volunteer saved the completed movie as a wmv file, which I can play, and imported into the collections. I even tried to place the wmv files on the timeline and while that will create another copy of the movie, I can't edit anything. I think I have all the raw images and video, but really don't want to re-create the whole thing from scratch, because there are only a few edits that have to be made, but they are important. Do I have any hope of completing my task easily? Do I need professional help? Can someone please help? Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30455

    - Capturing video from VCR When I tried to capture video from the vcr I could see the preview of the movie in the preview pane and I would hit capture for a 15 second or so and then stop it and let it import into movie make to see if it was working. I could only see a gree screen with a funny line at the top and when I hit play to see the clip I would see a green scree with a moving squiggly band of color at the top. I assume that was the video. What is the problem? I have checked the driver and it is the most current one for the program. I have used movie maker for converting some other type of video files and the preview worked fine for that. Tag: Work Vid I made Tag: 30437

    - If you live in England... Hello, I thought you might like to know this little snippet in particular if you live in the UK and are pondering on the cost of a new hard drive This may not be the very best deal but for £79.95 with a three year warranty it has to be worth a look. This morning we parked our car outside a store we have been in perhaps only twice in the last 15yrs or so. Its known for selling very cheap merchandise and those of you in England at least will know its name Aldi. I was waiting for the wife to come out of the hairdressers and to kill time went in and had a look.....I came out with 2 Western Digital Cavier 7,200RPM 250GB hard drives at £79.95. I'm formatting the first right now. The price compared to PC World is roughly half...they have an 8.9 m/s seek time, an EIDE Mode 5 data transfer rate and a 2MB internal memory...the memory size is now old hat...the very latest have 8MB. For storing or capture of video with Movie Maker these drives are just right (Now that I have convinced the wife that I REALLY do need them) -- Best Wishes.....John Kelly www.the-kellys.org www.the-kellys.co.uk Check out free video hosting and free "Complex Project" restoration at www.the-kellys.org ---- \|||/ (oo) ----------ooO-(_)-Ooo------------- All material gained from other sources is duly acknowledged.
