I have a complex project for my husband 50, I put a lot of clips together
matching it with sound, frame by frame, a lot of work, saved the project -
Movie Maker does not want to open it with the message "unspecified error"
First I thought it might be memory problems. I cleaned the harddrive,
killed some big files which were in â??collectionâ?? for some projects. I have
700 Mb RAM and 17 Gbt harddrive disk memory, so the memory should not be a
problem.
I tried to save just a little project, with one clip â?? it gives the same
error and does not open it.
By some reasons it opens all the collection, even when I donâ??t need it in
my new project. I suspect that it wants to find all the references, even the
old and deleted ones and does not want to work on the new project without it.
Allright, I made my N6 attempts to save at least a small part of the
project (700 Mbt) as a movie, and not only as a project. Save as a movie,
please, all the clips are in the directory in front of me, no crossesâ??, all
of them are playing fine â?? Nope, it says that canâ??t save as it is missing
some clips or sources are missing or modified. I did not touch the sources,
but edited a clip directly in the timeline.
By some reasons it keeps memory of my very first project, which I lost,
and so I deleted references to it. When I try to save it as a movie or when I
check new project file properties it shows the 1st project nameâ?¦ Does it let
me to work on the new project or I am stuck with the unfinished old one?
I check CPU usage when it is frozen - only 2-4 % in use, and the "program is
running"
I aksed papaJohn - he sent me to read his comments, thank you very much, but
I did not find the answer to my problem
I am struggling with this project (5 converted vobs to AVI) for a week, I
aready work by small pieces, but I can't open them also now, and the matter
is simple, there is something wrong in WMM - I can't afford loosing all my
work.
Over to somebody who knows...
