  • change the time between each photo in movie maker vista

    I am doing a slideshow using vista movie maker. I added music and it is great. BUT I can't change the length of time between each picture and the duration of transitions. I tried tools / options / and I can change out there, but it does not apply to my project. I also tried to do it manually but still no luck.

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Maybe the following will help:

    The change of setting to: Tools / Options /.
    Advanced... tab applies only to the added photos
    to the timeline * after * you change the setting.

    If you switch to view "Storyboard" and select
    all the pictures in the form of batches (select one and the type...
    CTRL + A)... you can add the 'Speed Up, Double.
    or "Slow down, half" effect of changing the
    duration. Simply select all clips / right click
    the effect on the menu... Choose...
    Add to storyboard table.

    'Speed Up, Double' cuts the duration of half.

    "Slow Down, half ' double life.

    These effects can be added up to six times.

    If you need finer adjustment...
    the info may be useful:

    To the timeline, you can change the
    the duration for each picture manually. Drag the
    Garnish handle left or right to increase or
    reduce the duration. You can see a
    Tip displaying the change.

    Or... just to redo the project after changing
    the long-term: Tools / Options / Advanced
    tab.

    With respect to Transitions, see the following article:

    Windows Movie Maker Vista - add transitions and effects to pictures and
    video in Windows Movie Maker
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/add-transitions-and-effects-to-pictures-and-video-in-Windows-Movie-Maker

    In some cases, you can add a transition
    to every other picture... What follows... explains why:

    This happens when the Transition is
    the same or greater than the length of the photo.
    This setting must be entered before add
    clips on the timeline.

    Tools / Options / Advanced tab.

    To add effects or Transitions to all clips
    at the same time... Follow the following steps:

    Go to the table of Storyboard view.

    Select all images. (click left one)
    and type... CTRL + A).

    With all the images selected... go...
    Transitions video and do a right click the
    You want to add, and then click on...
    Add to storyboard or type table... CTRL + D.

    It also works with the effects.

    Effects...

    The duration of the effects is not adjustable. As a work around
    to extend a fade in from black, you can insert a black solid
    .jpg that you can create in most image editing software.

    (FWIW... the intensity of certain effects can be increased
    If you right click on the picture and choose... Video effects...
    You can add up to 6 cases of effect)

    In Windows Paint (for example)... Open the photo / right click
    the black square in the color box and type... CTRL + SHIFT + N.
    (if you do not see color box... type... CTRL + L)

    (1) to save a photo...
    (2) go to... File / save as...
    (3) select a backup location...
    (4) enter a new name (which guarantees that your original picture is
    not overwritten),
    (5) choose a format...
    (6) left click... Record.

  • Windows Movie Maker (Vista) stuck on 'check project files', does not and will not load past to halfway.

    Hey guys,.

    I have been editing videos using Windows Movie Maker with great success, but I have recently installed the K-Lite Codec pack (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/k_lite_codec_pack.htm)

    and since then, Movie Maker will not load one of my projects.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the codecs but I feel I did something for the Movie Maker of the program itself, installing the codec pack, it came with a list of files it wanted to replace. As I obviously had no idea what I was doing, I just said yes to everything that was recommended. I don't know for the life of me exactly what files were etc however, it seems Director impact because now it does not load the project files.

    It's such an embarrassment because I don't know what is happening and really need this problem as soon as POSSIBLE. Any help would be appreciated.

    If you still have questions... do a Safe Mode system restore

    ==========================================
    I assume you are using Windows Live Movie Maker?
    (if you use Vista Movie Maker 6... See the last article)

    Windows Live Movie Maker can turn a video clip, but you
    may need to convert the video to a compatible format like
    . WMV, before you can import it into Windows Live Movie
    Maker.

    See the following screenshot.

    I have 4 videos of September I want to include on 1 DVD.  I also want to have every video available from the main menu, so people can pick and choose who they wish to watch.  Is there an easy way to do this?  Also, is there a way to put the chapters to EACH of the 4 videos?  Thank you all for your time!

    =========================================================
    If you import the 4 video clips to DVD Maker... each of them becomes a scene (chapter).

    If you want each video clip to have scenes (chapters) you must import them into
    Movie Maker and divide them into appropriate pieces and store each one individually
    a folder on your hard drive to the WMV format. When you import the WMV files collected
    in DVD Maker, each of them becomes a scene (chapter)... you can have up to 18 scenes.

  • Movie Maker 6.0 codecs

    I made movies using Windows XP Movie Maker. Now, I want to open them in Vista Movie Maker 6.0, but get an error message saying: there is no codec to do.
    How can I solve this problem?
    Thank you.

    Jaturi,
    These are the source files that I was referring to, however the .mswmm XP file is not an accountant with the Movie Maker Vista.  If you were to move to another XP machine, you will need to have the same directory structure in place for the source files in order to make it work.
