PAPJohn -Audio_Video Split
OK, I did what you had said before to split the audio from the video, but I wanted a music track on top of that sound. So I need the voice to be split from the video and then I need the music behind it. Is there a way to do that? As soon as I move that section down to the next line I can't add anymore audio then whats there already. Tag: no send Tag: 17146

Rename Codecs Version 1.5
Hi there,
Version 1.5 of "Rename Codecs" is now available for download from my web
site. Those of you who already use earlier version will probably like the
new feature or AUTO renaming and restoring.
Work on version 2 of this program is already underway. If no major problems
occur it will hopefully be available for download by the end of this month.
As always this program is free for personal use.

Audio "Skips"
When I saved my movie to tape in my camcorder the most recent audio
that I put into it skipped throughout the songs. I converted these
songs to .wma files via Roxio East CD Creator 5.
The first set of songs I used do not skip and play fine. I don't think
I used Roxio to convert those (I stumbled through the proces at the
time -- trying anything -- and cannot remember exactly how I converted
those files). I have Windows Media Player and MUSICMATCH Jukebox but I
cannot figure out how to convert regular music file from CD's in
either of those two programs.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance.

Is is possible to make a movie with your program by using some clips of vhs family movies and compiling them together as highlights ? Like a memory video with music in the backround and some action sports clips. How would I take the clips from the vhs tapes ? I have a camcorder, vcr, digital camera, and computer.

Feature Suggestion: remove senseless remote desktop restriction
MM refuses to launch under remote desktop. The developers probably thought that playing video via remote desktop would be to agonizing, and that is mostly the case
However, you can still do plenty, especially using the remote computer as a movie rendering workhorse. However, you first have to attach a monitor and physically sit at the remote machine to launch MM. Given that MM crashes pretty easily while saving big movies, this is a procedure that is painful to keep repeating
Please remove the restriction. Give a warning if you must, but let the user decide Tag: no send Tag: 17117
Splitting Audio from Video
Ok, I've looked all over this really weak help service,
only to find people complaining that they can't lock
their audio and video together. My problem is that
they're locked and I can't get them to unlock. I've been
forced to go back to Adobe. Maybe I should start looking
into a mac. How do you split apart the audio from
video...why isn't there just a little lock beside the two
of them showing their connected. You need to work on your

save movie file to hard disk
I can't save a movie file to my computer.
First I click File->Save Movie File.
Next I enter a file name for the saved movie and I choose
the place to save the movie. I select the default name
and I choose "My Computer" for the place to save my movie.
Finally I select "Best quality for playback on my computer
(recommended).
I get an error. "Cannot Complete the Save Movie Wizard."
It indicates I should verify that the original source
files used in your movie are still available. They are
and they are called test.wmv and test.Untitled.MSWMM.
It indicates that I need to confirm the "saving location
is still available". It is.
It indicates I need "enough free disk space available". I
think 3GB is enough.
The original file, test.wmv is 5 MB. The
test.Untitled.MSWMM is 695 KB.
I'm running Windows XP with 640 MB of RAM. I have 3 GB
free space. It's a Pentium III.
Any ideas on a fix for this problem.
I appreciate all your help.

Rename Codecs Version 1.5
Hi there,
Owing to a couple of non related (to the program above) problems the
release of version 1.5 has been delayed. I will still put it up for
download, probably tomorrow now. The new version 2.0 release has also been
delayed but should be available before the end of the month. In the
meantime, here is the new write-up for the current program.
=================================================
Your one-stop-don't-need-to-look-anywhere-else Solution is with a program
called "Rename Codecs".
Instead of reading miles of dross that is full of maybe's and perhaps's
just run the program, it takes a few moments to identify all of the known
codecs that cause this problem and gives you the opportunity of renaming
them.
You can then run Movie Maker and immediately determine if it actually was a
codec issue. If it was a codec issue Movie Maker will now run properly. If
it was not the issue, you have lost nothing more than a short amount of
time.
Whether or not it was a codec issue you must run the program once more and
restore the problem codecs to their original names.
The two procedures together can take less time than it did to read this
message and a whole lot less than reading mountains of bumph that may or
may not apply to you.
The program "Rename Codecs" is free and available from my website.
While there it would be a good idea to check out the tutorial on how to run
the program...that will take around one minute of your time!!! Use this
quick link to get there real fast http://tinyurl.com/3ewb9

VCD easy works Well
Hi, I used WMM2 for the first time this last week and made mothers day gifts
for my mother and my wifes mother. Worked pretty well except when it came
time to burn. I used nero at first and it had all sorts of problems with
drivers messing with each other. I downloaded VCD Easy and it took care of
those pretty well and burned them without any problems. I used FX Video
conveter and it was pretty easy to use too.
My question is there a way to get a menu on a VCD like in a DVD start up? Do
I need to use Nero or some other software to do this?

Strange behaviour on dv-avi files
I report here something strange I have noticed with MM2.
My input file is a 5 min long standard dv-avi file created with another
editing program (MovieXOne).
The file is inserted in the MM2 time line.
When rendered as is to dv-avi, it takes about 3 minutes to render and the
quality of the output file seems perfectly unchanged as compared with the
original.
But if a simple fade out to black effect is applied (it should only affect
the last seconds of the video), the rendering takes about 20 minutes and the
quality of the output file is clearly affected during the entire movie (a
sort of "grid" of pixellisation appears slighlty but clearly on the entire
movie).
The workaround I had to apply is to cut the movie into two pieces: a big one
of 5min-3 sec. and a small one of 3 seconds on wich the fade out is applied.
Some ideas about that strange problem?
