    - audio import problems We just purchased Windows Movie Maker and are trying to familiarize ourselves with it. We wanted to import a movie clip from an analog VCR and have succeeded in importing the video, but not the audio. The "video capture" options will only allow us to select "Mix Stereo," not "Mono Stereo" or any of the other options (i.e. "Line 2"). We think this may be the problem. Any advice?

    - How to capture Movie Clips I'm not sure on what to look for on my computer to see if I have the capability to capture video from my camcorder. I have a Digital 8 Sony DCR-TRV330 CamCorder. There is a connection spot on my Camcorder for a USB connection and there is a DV Input\Output connection.

    - "Converting WMV and AVI format to CDA format" HELP PLEASE "Converting WMV and AVI format to CDA format" Can that be done and if so HOW? I need help. I have some of the WMV and AVI files that I need to convert to CDA format somehow. I have a friend who sings karaoke and she needs them. The songs that she has been using is in the CDA format which seems to be all that her machine can use. Is there a special program I need? I have a cd burner and I can burn other music just fine. I can also burn the WMV and AVI format to a cd but it won't work on her machine. I have posted this 2 times without getting a reply. I may have posted in the wrong place so I will try here.

    - music background Have completed 30 min MM2 video back to tape with camera audio on audio line and narration on audio/music line OK. But when I try to add music background to narration on audio/music line it won't let me. I have tryed both ways that Microsoft white papers have said would work. 1)Place musc at end of narration on audio/ music line and drag music over narration, 2)Drag music from collections and place over narration on Audio/Music line. Neither seem to work.1) When trying to drag music from end of narration line it refuses to drag over the narration. It stops when it meets the end of the narration. 2) When draging from collections and dropping on narration, the narration disapears and all I have left is music.

    - Ordering collections I have made my first Movie Maker 2 video. 3,20 minutes about skiing. Now number 2 about the Faroe Islands is about to start - and here my question (I feel extreemely dumb): When I open the MM2 the collections and movies from the first film still shows. How do I save and delete them so I can start from scratch with the 300++ pictures and films for the next project? Of course I can just delete them (ALT A and delete) from MM2, but I might get the idea to nudge a little more with my first (and other earlier projects) film later. Are there a possibility to save the "Environment" around a film and then start a new from scratch - but then later recall an "Environment" from an earlier film. Sorry to ask such dumb questions - but I have read and read and not found the answer :) Many kind regards Einar Ritsmer Copenhagen, Good ole Denmark - homestead of the Wikings...

    - Making a VCD or SVCD Hello there, There have been many people who want to make a VCD or SVCD and have been disappointed that Movie Maker cannot do it. I have been looking at the most recent Windows XP Official Mag and find that it co0ntains some useful programs. One of these programs is by Magix and is called Movie Edit Silver. Apart from adding the potential for some new transitions and effects to your desktop it also gives the chance to create a VCD or SVCD with menus etc... Well worth a look I think. -- Best Wishes.....John Kelly www.the-kellys.org www.the-kellys.co.uk --- All material gained from other sources is duly acknowledged.

    - Question on compression ( maybe for MR J Kelley) Hi I am Guy B from Belgium I have watched Mr Kellys videos , and I must say I am impressed with the quality that still remains after the compressions ( or example the cat and mouse clip) I was wondering , which of the settings were used in compressing the clip Myself I have setup the latest codecs for wmv and such I use a Pal DV cam aswel as a new 3ccd NTSC DV cam The ntsc cam has settings for progressive , frame and other shootings I realize there is a quality loss in compressing but I need to maintain as much as I can( fast action dogs running ) as I need the clips for analysing performances while keeping the files size as small as possible ( ratio) to be able to be send to or viewed on . been dabbling with the various settings , and also wmv 9 My clips are always short (around 15 seconds ) and framesize defenatly does not have to be full size originals I keep/save as DV-AVI any tips experiences are well appreciated regards Guy B Tag: the record button is missing Tag: 19834

    - Regarding MM2 Shutsdown Post - 6/12/04 Fixed By mistake, I had converted my wmv file to mpeg2 when I wanted to save it for a VCD. I had saved it into the below mentioned folder. It took some fast fingers and a restart of explorer to delete the file. But, when I got it deleted, ALL program shutdowns for any program I used to access this folder and the Explorer restarts while trying to access this folder are history. Thank You to all those who tried to assist me on this matter. Below is the post on 6/12/04 MM2 shutdown when the file selection window opens after clicking on Import Video. The default window that is opening is \My Documents\My Videos. I only see it open for about 2 seconds then MM2 shutsdown. I found that not only does MM2 shutdown while trying to open \My Documents\My Videos but, Windows Explorer restarts, Windows Media Player shuts down and all other video software. The only exception to this is the Ulead DVD MovieFactory 3 and its bundled programs that came with my DVD burner. So I unistalled the Ulead suite and everything works fine now. Would some one please suggest a DVD software program that will do what the Ulead bundle is supposed to do and NOT conflict with my other programs? Ulead gives me a DVD player and Burn.Now (which allows you to burn Data, MP3 and Audio to CD or DVD). -- Always learning Thank You for your assistance Tag: the record button is missing Tag: 19807

    - Suggestions I think it would be a really really good idea to put a DVD burning feature in Windows Movie Maker, or at least a VCD feature. It would be nice if you could make professional menus with moving buttons and backgrounds and background music, and be able to burn in onto a DVD. I would be willing to pay $10-$30 for them to put a DVD burning feature in WMM. Anybody else want this? Tag: the record button is missing Tag: 19790

    - HELP TRYING TO BURN MM2 MOVIE TO DVD Hello, I have read a lot of posts from PapaJohn when helping Tiffany's issue. I to am having an issue close to hers. But, I am helping my mother-in-law with a 41 minute slide show of pictures. For some reason I am not able to "save as" then rename the file with a (AV, WMV ect..) It puts the WSWMM extension on it. I am unable to get it to play at all. She is using Sonic My DVD and has burned movies in the past, as I have assisted her in this. However, this time it isn't working at all. It starts to convert and gives an error message that the file is in use by another program. Nothing is open at all, I even looked in the processes and nothing that I could see was running associated with MM2. It also stated something about the log file. The kicker is, it is for a wedding in two weeks. Tonight I was going to uninstall the Sonic My DVD and try reinstalling it to see if that will work at all. Any help would be great! Like I said it won't let me save it as another file type. Is their a bug in this or am I over looking something? Please advise. Tag: the record button is missing Tag: 19740

    - Networks and MM2 Hi there, >he right? Is MM networkable? No of course he is not right. I can't believe a guy who *claims* to have database qualifications (presumably something other than desktop databases) could ever claim that MM was networkable. He wants people to believe that just because MM can use a drive that is networked that it therefore means that MM is Network aware!!! >I know record locking is not involved but what >about file locking? Surely this will cause quite a Joe, the guy is off his rocker believe me. MM knows nothing about networks, all that it knows is that there is a "mapped" drive available, which to MM will simply appear as a drive, the program knows about the same amount on networks as my dog does and at a guess my dog knows more about this than he does. To MM the drive it is accessing is just a drive...no more than that, it knows nothing about optimistic or pessimistic locking of files or records. It does not share a common pool of data and using the normal domestic connections to another computer it cannot even be accessed across the network if it is located in its default location, it can only be run locally. >problem? He also says its for a book he is writing >LOL !!! > >I notice as well that once again these announcements >are only ever responded to by his mate Bob, its exactly >as you said.
