    - Want to change edits done by Auto-Movie Hi Everyone, I let the auto-movie thing create a movie out of a bunch of clips I took of a JV football game my wife's cousin played in. It did a pretty good job, and I'm family happy with the initial results. There are a few clips that it edited down to get just the action in the clip (as I expected it would), but I want to change what part of the clip is shown in the movie because my wife's cousin is in part that MM edited out. For example, I have a clip that is 45 seconds long, and MM included from 22 seconds to 35 seconds in the movie it created. I want to leave this clip in, but I'd like to include from 32 to 45 seconds instead because that video is more meaningful to me. I also have some clips I'd like to make longer than what MM did...when I try to stretch them out on the time line it won't let me. How exactly can I do this? Thanks, Gary Tag: when i dowload extra special effects they dont work? Tag: 15875

    - Total Newbie--Need Some Help! I've been fooling around with capturing because I want to transfer some VHS home movies to DVD. I'm using an Adaptec AVC-1100 for the video capture, and the VCR is plugged into my sound card. WMM 2 is the *only* software that has managed to capture audio and video--no complaints there--but the finished (saved) movie jumps from one clip to the next, cutting out huge chunks inbetween. When I capture, the DV-AVI option is grayed out, so I've been using "Best Quality..." then saving as DV-AVI. On the "Collection" screen, each clip logically leads into the next, but on the "Storyboard" screen the problem starts--the clips are only a few seconds long, then the next clip starts minutes ahead, leaving out quite a bit. What am I doing wrong here? It's got to be something stupid and simple that I'm missing. Tag: when i dowload extra special effects they dont work? Tag: 15854

    - Unable to add more transitions Hi all. In Windows Moviemaker, I can drag and drop a load of .WMV or .AVI files onto the storyboard, but when I start adding video transitions, all goes well for a few but then all of a sudden, I won't be allowed to add more. When I try to drop them into the correct spot on the storyboard, I get a black barred circle.

    - Converting MSWMM To MP3: I need to know where I can find a utility, if one exists, that converts Windows Movie Maker files (.MSWMM) into MP3s If something like this exists, great. If it doesn't, why the heck not? Not everyone has Windows Movie Maker to play back on, ... or a system that supports it. Who was the genius who said you could only import these formats for the materials to a new file, but you cannot export to the source format I want to share my files with friends who don't have the Movie Maker, and things like Media Player don't recognize MSWMMs. What the heck is that supposed to be, anyway. Why can't it just make and save in a normal, mainstream format? Tag: when i dowload extra special effects they dont work? Tag: 15839

    - Yet Another "Can't Save Movie" Plea For Help Out of nowhere, my MM2 refuses to save any movie file except to DV-AVI. I've been using it exclusively for quite some time and have become totally dependent upon it. Now I am getting the typical message about checking the amount of drive space, source files, etc. I checked them and all was fine. I read on the Microsoft site about increasing the page file and that also was no help. I tried reinstalling it, and again, same error message. I read just about everything on Papajohn's site and again, nothing worked. I would even be happy about going back MM1 to see if that works. I couldn't find on the XP disc the folder that was mentioned. And when I type in the DOS commands, I got an error message about no destination file being found. I went back to the Microsoft site and downloaded codecs and just about everything else I could find. I even changed the TEMP folderto the desktop. The QASF.DLL is version 9 as it should be. I've got 258 ram, 1.2 gig processor and 7 free gigs on one drive and 8 on another. Outside of formatting my hard drive (which I absolutely can't do), I have no clue what else to do. The only thing I did since the last time I saved a movie without a problem (Tuesday) was defrag both drives. Please, if anyone has a suggestion, email me. I recently started a little side business of editing home videos and I've got people waiting for the finished product. Even if you don't have a suggestion regarding a fix to this problem, maybe someone could suggest another similar application that I could donwload and purchase. Thanks in advance.

    - Totally Confused I am totally confused now and frustrated. I can not figure out which format to use. To start what I have done is use still photos in the movie maker and set them to music as a movie. When I saved it as a wmv. file on my pc all was fine. That burnt to a cd fine. But I can not burn to a dvd at all. I tried saving it again as a dv-avi file and it will not recognize it. So next I converted it to a type II dv-avi to see if that works. It now recognizes it but when I try to burn it it only goes half way and then gives me an unknown error message. I have just been told that is because I need to save it as an mpeg not dv-avi. Can someone let me know which one is it supposed to be? And if it is supposed to be an mpeg how do you do that? And the software I am using is Pinnacle Instant Cd/Dvd. Thanks for any help I receive.

    - Canon ZR50 After reinstalling Windows XP, Moviemaker will not capture video from my canon ZR50 Digital Video camera. The camera is connected using an IEEE1394 port (TI controller.) After connecting the camera PC recognizes it, shows the correct camera on the list of video devices (Canon ZR50 and WinTV capture card), after pressing next,I am given the choice of File mane and place to save video, after selecting these, I select video setting (Best quality for playback on pc), next. Then I've tried both options - Capture tape automatically OR Capture tape manually. After pressing next, tape rewinds and starts, process moves to second step, capturing video, then stops with the following VERY HELPFUL message, "An unknown error has occurred." Is this a codec problem? I have tried all of the options in the initial capture screens without success.

Hi George,

Check the Setup > Software page of my website... it includes notes about
where the items go during installation. The Creativity Fun Packs don't
automatically go into MM2. You have to import the new files.
