    - another save movie problem Most often when i save my 5 min long created music video, it pauses for a long time on the "estimating remaining time" and then an error message pops up saying either my files are not in the right place, my saving location does not have enough storage, or the saving location doesn't exist. I then converted all my jpegs to bmp, mp3 to wav, and mpegs to wmv. Now i'm able to get it to start saving, but it started at 900 min remaining, and climbed steadily until i canceled at 2000min.

    - Stupid Green Line in my video's I have this green line that runs along the right side of my video's that I capture from a DV Camera. It's really annoying, considering that I'll probably put some of these video's on a DVD or VHS and I don't want it to have a green line on them. The line is not on my camera when I preview the video, it only appears after I upload the video onto my computer, in AVI format(I don't think the format has anything to do with it). Any kind of help or explanation would be great, thanx. -Eagle Tag: my movie is freezing on photos Tag: 26550

    - Cannot import audio/video without wmm crashing I downloaded the new 2.1 version and I went to fix a clip for a video of mine and tried to find the missing audio file, and when I did it locked up. That is right after I found the file that was missing and replaced it, WMM locked up and now if I try to add any clips to WMM or any audio it crashes, it will not let me do anything. Any help would really be appreciated. The audio file I replaced was the correct file, and I've even went as far as deleting the old "missing" audio, saving the project and stll the same problem, even when I start new projects now I cannot import audio or video without WMM crashing, WMM 2.0 never had this problem Tag: my movie is freezing on photos Tag: 26532

    - Using Movie Maker via USB with a miniDV camcorder I have a JVC GR-D54E miniDV camcorder and I am using a software named Pixela to export my movies to my computer but the quality it provides is not very good.So I decided to use movie maker but while trying to have the settings done the program freezes until I turn off the camcorder.I could not export anything with movie maker.My question is;Do I need to have an IEEE 1394 type of connection in between the camcoder and the computer to use movie maker?And of course for that reason I think I should have an IEEE-1394 card on my computer.Thank you for your commends or recommendations.

    - Stuttering movie when saved back to Digital Camcorder Hello, I've recently been editing movies and then re-recording them back to my Digital Camcorder tape in .avi format. I've noticed that I get the odd stutter when I playback the tape. Can someone tell me why this is - I'm guessing it's either the tape not allowing for PC processing delays in recording, or some kind of limitation on my PC. Please help if you can. Thanks, Rupert.

    - WMM 2 Locks up when dragging bar on timeline I have a project containing video, overlays, and music. I have worked on this project in the past, and have done so successfully. I have upgraded my PC to a Dell 4600, 1 GB RAM, Pent 2.8, etc... WinXP SP1. I have not been able to run WMM without problems. I have read many of the posts, visited Papa John's website (read and tried almost all of it), and still no success. 1. My current problem is this: When I open my project, everything opens O.K. If I move my mouse down to the timeline and click on the play button, the video and music works fine. If I then press pause, then play again, it works O.K. However, if I drag the position bar (the thin blue verical bar which shows where you are on the timeline) to a different starting point on the timeline - then press play to continue from that point, the video preview window says its playing, but the frame either shows the last image from my last position on the timeline, or the video just disappears to a black screen. I also get no sound. Why would everything disengage when dragging the timeline position bar to another part of the movie? 2. Whenever I try to lengthen my still images by dragging the right side of the still image from say 3 seconds to 5 seconds, I can do this successfully about 2 or 3 times. But when it is more than that, the project locks up and I have to kill it with Task Manager? I have spent the past 3 days reinstalling WMM 2, Media Player 9, Direct X, etc... I have renamed codecs, adjusted accelerator options, etc... Nothing is working - Is using a software program supposed to be this hard???? Tag: my movie is freezing on photos Tag: 26500

    - What codecs are used Does anybody know what video and audio codes WMM 1.1 uses? I would assume 7.1 for video and 9 for audio. However, when I encode a file (for streaming via windows media services 9) using Windows Media Encoder 9 using 7.1 video and 9 audio codecs, I do not get sound.

    - Can't export after insalling SP2 I have recently installed SP2 on my home PC. I use it heavily for video editing - I can no longer export to tape from eith Movie Maker, or Adobe Premiere which I normally use. I get the occassional frame, but that's all! Interestingly, Adobe Premiere has an option to 'export to tape' which blanks the monitor as the video is output via the 1394 connections, and this works fine, as it used to. All was fine before the upgrade. Has anyone else had similar problems or got any suggestions? All help appreciated Richard Tag: my movie is freezing on photos Tag: 26470

    - Lost 1.3 gb of import in two seconds I had just completed a taping of a teaching video with mm 2.1 pressed finished and it went to processing the file. I did a CTRL ALT DEL to check processor activity which does a quick resolution change. MM could not handle that and I lost the entire session no back up no remedy. I don't even have the temporary file. Question what is it that MM does when it finishes a file after a DV import and why does it delete the temporay file on the error haVING NO WAY TO RESTART THE PROCESS? It seems I should be able to reload the raw file and let it do it's thing. This sucks because I shot directly to the computer because it was two hours non stop... So I've lost everything and cannot get it back. Seems like bad behavior to kill the raw file befdore the new is finished. Nough Said Tag: my movie is freezing on photos Tag: 26466

    - Problems with Panasonic DV Camera and Capture I have recently purchased a Panasonic NV GS11 DV Camcorder and have connected it to my HP T610 Pentium 4 PC with a Firewire cable (Belkin) to the onboard firewire port.

    - Cannot run program Hi! I have two questions; I don't know if they're related or not. I just downloaded the SP2 update but I'm still running (sort of, but I'll get to that) version 2.0 not 2.1--is this an issue? I was fine with the program before the update but I thought I should mention that I can't seem to install 2.1 My real problem is that after installing the SP2 update, my WMM won't work--at all. I open it up, but as soon as I try to click on something like switching to a folder containing the clips I want, it freezes. When I go to the task manager to end the program it show 100% CPU usage. WMM was working fine before SP2. What I can I do so that can edit videos again? Thanks for any and all help! Lady Lore Tag: my movie is freezing on photos Tag: 26397

I ran into this problem several months ago. My movie was 15 minutes long
with lots of transitions and video. The only way I could fix it was by
saving the WMM file by "chapters" or much smaller files and then importing
them into another program. I think I used Ulead Videostudio. I wasted many,
many hours searching for another way. Unfortunately that was the only thing
that worked. Ulead has a 30 day free trial.

There was a problem like that which we fixed in SP2. Are you using
MovieMaker 2.1 in Windows XP SP2?
