    - Movie Maker/media player I am living in Mexico, so cannot get regular help, am old- ish, more just a user than a geek! Help!! I am trying to make a movie with audio & video. Can make the CD movie, but can only play it on computers that have WIN Video Player installed. Have tried 4 different home type CD/DVD players around here with no luck Is this an endemic problem? Is there a way around this? I am trying to do this for a dive business & am totally stuck. Can't just go out & keep buying players until I find a compatible one! Am using all digital camcorders, so no problem with analog conversion. someone help please?? Thanks Vern Tag: split screen Tag: 17040

    - 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?

    - curious dvd format query having made my finished movie/soundtrack bonanza using movie maker, i want to burn it onto a dvd to play on any dvd player. the program that came with my computer is sonix MyDVD which is verrrrry basic, and very frustrating (for example, all the fancy backgrounds are all well and good - but what about a basic b&w background for a clean and simple look??) so i am feeling frustrated (as usual!) by my lack of knowledge about what my options are. are there any programs anyone on here could recommend? or is there anyone familiar with the program i am using who could offer advice (if there is any) on altering the themes and placement of the menu buttons. i am feeling lost and bleh. adrienne.

    - MovieMaker hangs when importing video from Sony DCRHC30 I am trying to import video from my new Sony DCRHC30 digicam. The import seems to work okay (I see the images in the preview window, etc...) but then the app hangs after the dialog entitled "capturing video" appears. The "time" bar goes all the way to 100% and the timer counts down to 0 time remaining and then ... nothing. It doesn't take the whole PC down with it (which is good), but I need to use Task Manager to quit the app. Any thoughts out there? Joe Girardot jwgirardot (at) aol.com Tag: split screen Tag: 16977

    - Unstable Movie Maker 2 Hello We are using Movie Maker on about 20 computers at our University to edit Video. It seems though that we will have to change over to another program. Movie Maker turned out to be extremely unstable. Especially during the capturing process the program and even the computer would restart without any warning. We have tryed it on many different types of computers, with anything (drivers and software) updated. There seems to be no pattern in this. Even when working on (rather big though) project, the computer would just anytime restart Does anyone have similar excperience? Any hints Thenks very much Manfred, ReykjavÃk/Iceland Tag: split screen Tag: 16976

    - How to extract time and date info from DV clips in Movie Maker to a text file or DVD clips? I've captured my DV tape and selected create clips which gives a nice list of the scenes by date. Now, how can I archive the time and date info? I've tried cut/copy/drag/drop to get it into notepad, no dice. Any ideas? Btw, my end goal is a presumably common one, I want to archive my home dv movies into DVDs (the compression is ok), but while preserving the time/date info. Ideally, each clip would be a separate DVD chapter or title with the date as its name? Why is this so hard?.. waaahhhhh! :) (I tried exporting to wmv and re-importing to see if it retains the time/date info. It doesn't, so if you back up your tapes to wmv, you lose it.)

    - Burning movie project to a DVD I'm new to Windows Movie Maker, so please bear with me. I've downloaded digital video from my Sony video camera to Windows Movie Maker, saved as "High quality video (large)" so I could burn it to a DVD for playback on a DVD player. My PC's OS is Windows XP. I've edited and added a soundtrack and am ready to burn it to a DVD. I have a Sony DRU-530A external DVD burner. Movie Maker has saved my project with the *.MSWMM file extension, I saw no other options, and I do not see an option in Movie Maker to save my project to a DVD. When I attempt to use the Sonic "MyDVD" software (version 5.2.1) that came with the DVD burner it will begin to encode, but will then give the following error message: One or more files could not be imported: MyDVD does not support this file type. Check the user guide for details on support files." It appears that MyDVD does not recognize the *.MSWMM extension. Any idea of how I can convert my completed Movie Maker project to say, an .AVI file, or any other hints on how to burn this project to a DVD? Tag: split screen Tag: 16957

    - Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error! I've been using MM2 for about 4 months now. In that past 30 days, I've been frustrated by an absolute inability to get the movies I create back to the digital camera for dubbing to DVD. The error message is Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library (x in circle) Runtime Error! Does anyone know a layman's fix for this. I've tried reinstalling everything to no avail. Using Windows XP P3 2.66 Gb with 1Gb Ram and all available updates for Windows and MM2. Initially, I thought it was program length, but I've cut things way down and still had the same result: 20% completed saving and then stalls out. When I close, I get the aforementioned error message with "Program: C:\Program Files\Movie Maker\moviemk.exe R6025-Pure Virtual Function Call Thanks in advance! Bob Tag: split screen Tag: 16947

    - cannot work with this I still can't preview my clips in my version. Like I have said before my computer crashed and they gave me the new version of mm that I seriously hate, it doesn't work like before and it is horrible. Now I have tried some things that did not work, I cannot do a system restore because my computer crashed. They sent it back to me with MM2 instead of 1. Now when I transfered all the files from a friends computer it won't let me preview the movie at all. There aren't even all the video effects options listed (even though they appear on her computer) What is the deal? Tag: split screen Tag: 16942

    - Audio surgery needed (?)... I'm the guy doing the speedup (1x/4x/8x) video of the route that I drive for training purposes. I'm 95% done and just want to add some audio narration in a dozen spots or so, but I'm close to the storage space limits according to the stats associated with the test VCD and DVD that I just burned. My main question is, will the removal of already muted audio tracks lower the space requirement on the destination media ??? If so, is there a way to remove the audio originally associated with the video track without skewing all of the editing that I've done (I've got 100+ clips and a ton of text screens sprinkled throughout) ???

    - MM2 Saving problem I'm a newbie so forgive me if this is an old chestnut. I've created a project , it's currently about 1m 15s long. (It's actually taken me ages to do.) I rendered it to wmv when it was about 1/2 way done - no problems. (AMD Athlon XP 2200+, 1 Gb DDR) Now however when I try and save to wmv it just keeps clocking up the 'time reaining' but never stops - I left it for 2 hours once. I've tried re-installing MM2 - no joy. Any ideas amyone? Cheers Tris Tag: split screen Tag: 16923

    - MM2 preview shows only top half of image This is now a more consistent problem, but I beieve it has caused my MM2 to go 'belly up' before. The bottom half of the preview screen either is black or flickers with a blue or a 2 colour image of a Windows Explorer like list though illegible. Viewed full screen, the iamge has horizontal scan type stripes through it and it all flickers. Appears to be better when rendered to wmv as it deinterlaces it. Oh yeah, source video is either DV-AVI 30fps or Analogue (S-Video) PAL @ 25fps - now using a canopus ACE DVio capture card. I have downloaded and applied the latest Matrox graphics card drivers. This issue started when I captured some video from my NTSC VX2000 which was set to Progressive scan. I've since reinstalled XP and my drivers, albeit over an existing partition. Is it a codec problem? I also have Pinnacle 7.15, Procoder Express, and a host of other utilities, codecs etc, though with the reinstall they might not be registered yet. Using Matrox G550, 1Gb DDR, P4 2.66Ghz CPU, XP Pro, Dx9b and a number of large HDD's with space. Help is appreciated. remove '_nospam_' to reply. Tag: split screen Tag: 16918
