    - 16:9 Aspect Export Problem Hi there! I'd appreciate any input someone might have on my problem Here's the scenario - Capturing video as DV-AVI via firewire from a Sony MiniDV shot in 16:9 - It shows up just fine in the preview window and I can edit it with no problem - When I go to Save As, no matter what settings I try, the final saved AVI file plays distorted (people come out thin) I've tried playing with the advanced settings in every combination of 4:3 and 16:9 for both capture and saving but the result is always the same Anyone have any ideas?

    - Fonts and Colors OK, this will seem a bit stupid, I'm sure. but here it is anyway; I cannot find the ability to change fonts, colors, or alignments for an overlay. I've read the help file that states, "Selecting the title font and color This page lets you choose the font and colors for your title or credits. By changing the font and colors, you can change the appearance of the title to enhance your movie. The following options appear on this page."... however, I'm not seeing this option anywhere. When right clicking on the text, most MS programs give the option "FONT". This one does not. Did I miss an instalation file? Am I completely in the dark about something simple and stupid? I can see my title, the overlay works fine, I've tried in both without starting a new project, and in a new project - what I would like to do is to have an overlay in a semi transparent font in the lower right hand side of the screen.

    - Analog capture thru sony dv camera I am trying to capture analog video using my Sony TRV38 digital video camera as a converter.I am using an IEEE1394 connection.When I go to capture the video it shuts the camera off. The only way I can capture the video is if I turn the camera on first. Then select record pause on the camera in vcr mode, and then connect the IEEE1394 cable. I get an error message, close it, then it starts to capture the video. Is this the only way to capture analog video thru my digital video camera using a firewire connection? Tag: sound Tag: 12642

    - further important clue to my WMM problems::: In my ongoing quest (about a month now) to clean up the excessive jerky, hic-cup-py platyback of video in my WMM2, I want to add the following clue: After I capture video, there is that horizontal green progress bar, that I think(?) says somethng like "loading", but now it just zips(!) right through itself instantly ... whereas in the past when my WMM2 was working *right*, that bar would slowly progress left-to-right as it gauged the processing of my captured video Anyhow, nowadys, it does none of that - it just blows right through it. Can this suggest something? Is something zapped on my system? I've tried reloading WMM2 a few times; no luck ... still stranded on an island .. with no WMM2 to play with ..... help ..

    - DVD player that plays back WMV 2Q2004 When this player is available I think I will finally take the plunge and convert my edited DV files to high qaulity WMV. http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,114279,00.asp I currently use the free Windows Media Encoder 9 Series to convert my DV files to a WMV format with goood quality and that could tolerate a few re-encoding generations if necessary. However, I am reluctant to delete any DVs because I don't know if the format I selected will playback in a hardware device. This player would validate that. This is my current "Encode DV.bat" file: cd \program files\windows media components\encoder rem the following command is all on one line cscript.exe wmcmd.vbs -input "C:\Video\Edited" -output "C:\Video\Encoded" -v_codec WMV9 -v_mode 2 -v_quality 85 -v_keydist 1 -v_preproc 1 -a_codec WMA9PRO -a_mode 2 -a_setting Q75_44_2_24 rem pause so that you can see any possible errors in the command pause The script above encodes all files in "C:\Video\Edited" to variable bit rate quality level 85 deinterlaced, audio quality level 75. The results are placed in "C:\Video\Encoded". For all the switch definitions see Start Menu, All Programs, Windows Media, Utilities, Windows Media Encoding Script, the Using command-line options section Tag: sound Tag: 12639

    - Replacing video with slide show Can someone please help me find the "least expensive" software that will allow me to replace video while continuing to hear the audio associated with that video. In other words, I have a video clip of my father discussing his early life. While he is talking, I want to fade into still pics of his early life. This is not like a narration where I would add voice to a series of still pics, but rather the opposite. Replacing the video while leaving the audio I was told that WMM might do this, but I have not been able to figure it out if it does. If it will, I would appreciate any assistance you might be able to provide. If it won't, does anyone know a software package that will. I have been told that Adobe Premiere will do this, but have not checked it out due to the cost Thank you for an assistance. Tag: sound Tag: 12609

    - Newbie Questions... I'm a bit confused...being new to the whole video editing\creation thing, I just got started with Windows Movie Maker 2 today by using still pictures to put together a slide show with music and some effects. That's been going fine.. My questions are about saving - it looks like 640x480 is the max resolution that a video can be saved as. Is this correct Now, that size is fine for viewing on my computer, but what about television? I'm not sure how computer resolutions translate into TV viewing. I have a 42 inch television. Would the video fill the whole screen, or just a small window? Would it be a mess (stretched and pixelized?) Of the save options, which are actually the best quality (once you choose to pick manually and not let windows pick)? The options they present are a bit confusing. Are higher kbs always better? (Assuming local viewing and not trying to make web friendly)? "High Quality, Large" isn't very informative If you want a FULL, super-high quality copy for archive, what option would that be Oh, on other question, this one about Audio Is there any way to trim an audio clip, then make it fade out instead of ending abruptly Thanks Tag: sound Tag: 12555

    - playback hang-ups Went to papajohn site very informative but no luck for my particulars which are Video captures fine from my sony mini DV cam and saving back to mini DV gives good results as well. Its the editing and MM clip playback on the MM2 monitor pane that is very unstable and sometimes results in the infamous error report. I should add that the audio is played back without interuption, its really only the compressed video file (I think MM2 call this a movie maker project file) that seems to have the problem in stability, meaning when i play back the (edit in process project file) timeline it almost seems that the graphics card (in my case a graphics adaptor intel 170) is trying to catch up with the speed of the video images, the result of course is a highly unwatchable product. I checked the codecs through the XP direct diagnostic tool and did not see any that matched ones listed at papajohns site.I also tried the settings on the accelerator but to no avail. I should also add that MM2 does save the last edit when there is an error crash (hang-up), a window comes up asking me if I want to retrieve the lost data, so eventually I can finish the edit but what a pain. Anybody have anything new to add? Papajohns comments are always aprreciated. hilowathome Tag: sound Tag: 12553

    - MM 2 hangs after import of .mpg OK, I've read many posts & PapaJohn, I've done your check list. But I cannot resolve this: I've used MM2 before (made a 20 min pix/video presentation 2 months ago) However now I've started a new project. It involves still pix's, mp3 audio and .mpg. I've inserted my title, added several still pix, but when I add an .mpg (maybe 10-15 sec. long) MM2 freezes. It will not play the clip. If I save the file right after I add the .mpg then exit the program, it will allow me to add another clip. But if I try & play the entire clip it freezes. (The .mpg clips are imported from another source - not using MM2 to create the .mpg) Oliver Peters Tag: sound Tag: 12549

    - answer I have the same problem with freezing MM2.I think When MM2 overloaded-it freezed.Also i cannot make CD or taped my annimationts on hard disc when file is more than 5 min.So. i split it in parts(till 5 min. each)and tape it on hard disc or burning CD.IT happend,specially,when i do the annimations:700 pictures, 3Mpixeles each one-the length of the movie.While working with the movie the pc freezes a few times,so,i have ti use Alt-Ctrl-Del to run againg MM2.It takes a lot of time!But now, i work bit slowly with MM2(waiting for finishinng of every step of command)and time to time to restart of my computer helps to refresh the RAM memory and defragmention of the hard disc makes the peformens of MM2 better.MM2 is good Movie Maker,but i shoudn't buy it while having free downloads of it.But ,till now,i see that MM2 is more progressive Movie Maker to compare with another MM.And i'm going on with using it,because I can create annimations with photo's,that is not possible whith another programms i know.Be patient,MM2 will be upgraded(i hope) Success.Andrey Tag: sound Tag: 12548

Excellent question with more than enough information. How about
mentioning what camera you have and how you're connecting it? Have you
