Help me find the fix to Windows DVD Maker image format. THERE IS A DIFFICULTY!

OK... so I burned the AVI videos using Windows dvd creation since I put beta tested Vista WAY back when... never have I had this problem to burn a movie that has been set to 16:9 and he's seen out as a 4:3 video. Last week, I reinstalled windows as normal... and a few days later tried to burn an AVI movie. I selected the 16:9 and burned. When it's done I put it in my dvd player and BOOM... black on the left and right. (but from what I gather... is not new for many people)

So keep in mind that I reinstall Windows approximately every 3-6 months and have never had any problems.

I am currently (and since a certain time) running windows 7 ult x 64.

When I reinstall windows the first thing we do is to install my video card. (ATI Radeon 5850 Black Edition) with the center of control of drivers, ect...

Then I reboot and install Direct X followed CCCP (combined community codec pack) is the only codec pack I use... I've never installed K-lite or all others.

Then I installed Sony Vegas Pro (video editing software) - added filter in DVD maker.

Then cinema 4 d R12 (3d animation software) - adds the filter for DVD maker

Vuze (client bittorrent with HD video player)

IE 9 no matter what video converter (best program EVER)

and that is it really.

After doing this for all these years... Creation of DVD has never failed to work for me.

HOWEVER this last time I was able to produce anything else than coasters.

In ADDITION, before this last reinstallation I had installed something to help me read MKV files and I tried to install Halii Media Splitter for some random projects I was working on that. I'm not sure what I was wrong... but my video thumbnails finished a little crushed... as if they were 16:5 If you get what I mean... they were just larger thumbnails video normal 16:9 but they were 2/3rds as great. right now I'm not sure how to achieve this effect again.

Then. While this problem in case of problem, I noticed that the prevew for DVD maker always displays the video as a 16:9 (which is not a new discovery I know) HOWEVER... I have noticed that when you add a video to DVD maker's miniature aspect in this first window is how the video will end eventually... thus spare you coasters and do not burn if it is 4:3. I found that by adding a video AVI, then that same video converted to WMV. AVI showed 4:3 and 16:9 stood the WMV... also, I burned a trailer for 2 min in the two formatted to see if there was a difference and yes it y a. AVI who appeared as a 4:3 (despite the 16:9 in review and preview "pretending to be 16:9) and the WMV which showed up as 16:9 does infact burn on 16:9 as expected.

It's upsetting and frustrating because I use to be able to add 16:9 avi videos to DVD maker, and they present themselves as 16:9. I tried even to add a video that I had already burned a few months ago and he has appeared in 4:3 when before reinstalling it is presented as a 16:9... until the devil. Sorry this is so long, but my point, I think he's done.

There is a solution to this problem...

its all just get the good codecs incolved kind DVD maker is as it should. It should also be noted that I didn't know yet that there is a Compatibility tab in the options until I started having this problem... (which means that I have NEVER in the past has changed the filters in this tab and I have never had any problems.) I think that my installation I have always used in the past just had good codecs concerned to harmonize with creation of DVD and hit "sweet spot that she were" currently, I'm trying to recreate my relocation and get back to work... when I say that out I'll post back with THE FIX that everyone so desperately need.

Because... Yes I could convert WMV videos or I could download movie maker and make all this *... but it's the principle... I DIDN'T HAVE TO DO IN THE PAST...... I WOULDN'T DO IT NOW...

all thoughts.

its super easy to reinstall windows. Place the disc in... and go. I don't think I could use a picture program of system... simply because I don't want to install the same things every time. and if I add movies or music, or especially photo after that so the picture was taken when I go back to the image they would be lost. from now need me only about 1.5 hours to reinstall windows to start in Finnish.

the codec I got was

http://www.XviD.org/downloads.15.0.html

and it probably won't resolve the problem by itself. the programs I install as Cinema 4 d R12, any video converter, sony vegas pro, all add their own filters in DVD maker... so it could be some of them, it could be all the... I'm not sure... I'll have to look into the issue more. I also installed the windows 7 codec pack and DIVX and for reason, he came back with the same problem. so I reinstalled again without the windows 7 codec pack and its working again.

  • Cannot open a project in Windows Movie Maker after the backup in Windows DVD Maker

    I imported with success of media in Windows Movie Maker, Movie published by using Windows DVD Maker as a guest just so that I could see how it would look.  I was able to view what I had engraved on a DVD and was very happy about how he already produces.  When I returned to Windows Movie Maker and tried to open my project to continue adding multimedia elements to it, I can't open it - it tells me that it is not a valid file in Windows Movie Maker.  Can find my project in My Documents in the category Videos, I'm still not able to open it.  I wonder if I shouldn't have saved in Windows DVD Maker.  I hope that I'm not "all over again.

    I would greatly greatly appreciate it if anyone can help.  It is a very special project for a class reunion.

    This is the first time I used a forum so I hope I've submitted it correctly.

    Thank you!

    NancyLouse,

    Windows DVD Maker and Movie Maker store files with different file extensions.  This means that if you named the file 'file Movie Maker' and the DVD Maker 'file' file the real file names would actually file. MSWMM and file. MSDVD

    To display the extensions on all the files follow these steps:
    -Click on the ORB to start and Control Panel
    -In Control Panel, click Classic view in the upper left corner
    -Click on Folder Options, click view
    -Scroll to "Hide Extensions for known Types file" and uncheck this box

    The search in the folder now where you saved these files or use the search function, you should see the 2 different files.

    What version of Windows are you using?  If the Windows Vista Ultimate and the file has been deleted somehow you can be lucky.

    Vista Ultimate is a feature called previous versions.  To restore the file back to it's previous state, you can do a right click on the folder where the document has been stored (if the Documents may start, right-click on Documents) then go to properties

    -Click the previous versions and you will see the dates corresponding to previous versions of the file you are looking at.
    -Select a date and time that corresponds to when the file in this folder was in operational condition and double-click the file to open it

    Find the file in the folder newly open and drag the file to your desktop (be sure not to drag to the exact location where the file was initially as not to overwrite the file).

    I hope this helps

  • How can I increase the size of the disk on Windows DVD maker?

    I have 240 min. discs, but it's only allowing me 150 minutes.

    Hello

     
    A DVD video is made based on time, not on the size of the file. If the length is too large, it does not fit on the DVD.
    As a general rule, a 4.7 GB DVD can hold an hour of high-quality video. According to the compression options in your authoring software this time may be increased.
     
    As you can see in the FAQ below. DVD Maker is supposed to burn up to 150 minutes on a DVD single layer.
     
    For more information, see the article below:
     
    And the compression used, at least your video quality.
    But yes. You can buy double-layer - DVD DL DVD blank 8.5 GB of memory capacity. It also requires a DVD burner double layer. And I'm not positive that the DVD Maker will recognize a DVD DL.
     
    It will be useful.

    Creating Windows dvd:

    Computer crashed this program how to get back lost

    Do you still have the program, but maybe just lost the shortcut for it?

    See what you have here, C:\Program DVD Maker, look for DVDMaker.exe.

    It may be necessary to show both hidden and system files and also uncheck 'Hide known file types' in Control Panel / folder Options / view to navigate to the specified location.

    If you have the .exe, and then you can right-click on the .exe and "Pin" in the Start Menu or use "send to" to place a shortcut on the desktop.

    If you type DVDMaker.exe in Start Menu / search box, or men Start / RUN box, which could launch for you.

    You can try restoring the system also.

  • . Treated AVI as Audio in Movie Maker and corrupt in Windows DVD Maker.

    I have a lot of. AVI files I want to burn to a DVD.  I do not have another series of. Notice to try with these programs to see if it's just them.

    Windows Movie Maker treats as Audio files, I tried to disable compatibility filters.  I tried this on two computers to Vista.

    Creating Windows DVD said me:

    0 files were added successfully.

    File (s) X could not be added.

    The files

    [Name of file]

    is not valid or is corrupted.

    I tried this on two computers to Vista.

    I tried to convert the files with "Any Video Converter", but there is a substantial loss of the quality of .wmv and mpeg conversion.

    I tried "of Aimersoft DVD Creator' trial, but video lags behind audio when I play the video in this program.  The videos show very well "Media Player Classic Home Cinema".

    How can I fix these files. AVI or convince Movie Maker and DVD Maker to care for them properly?

    Thank you j of volunteering.

    I used Freemake for one of the .avi files convert an .avi file. This increased the size of the file by more than 300% no change in quality.  Windows Live Movie Maker considers the new .avi properly, but not creating Windows DVD or Windows Movie Maker, they still refuse to import or use it as audio, respectively.

    I have converted the new .avi to .wmv with Freemake file and it seems that the quality is actually improved from the original. Windows DVD Maker will accept this new .wmv.

    I'll convert others, burn and return with the results for the benefit of anyone else who has this problem.

    Convert .avi .avi files then .wmv and burn with Windows DVD Maker have exceptional results.  As seen on TV quality is slightly better than the quality of the original .avi files on the computer.  Don't know what attribute this too, but I'm pretty happy.
    Sorry for the late reply, but it took time to convert, convert, burn and test.

    Thank you very much for the help.

    Hi Uncle mango.

    1. don't you restore the computer back to factory settings?

    If you have not restored the computer to factory settings, we recommend that you restore the settings of Windows DVD maker to factory default settings such as audio and video filters sometimes cause this problem.

    Video and audio filters are programs that are installed on your computer that help interpret video files so that they will display and play correctly. Windows Movie Maker uses them when you import video and audio.

    To restore settings, try the following steps.
    A. open Windows DVD maker.
    B. click on tools, then click Options.
    C. click on the Compatibility tab.
    D. do one of the following:
    > To turn off a filter, clear the check box next to the name of the video filter.
    > To turn on a filter, select the check box next to the name of the video filter.
    > To restore the default list, click on restore all default values.
    E. restart DVD maker and burn a new DVD to check if the problem persists.

    When you restore the default settings, the list and the filters settings are given to the last known good setting.

    On Vista, Windows DVD Maker requires that you have Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate Edition.  If you have one of these versions, you should already have Windows DVD Maker and Windows Movie Maker 6.0.  These versions of Windows Vista are required to have copies under license from MPEG-2 to make a video DVD.
