• How can I save my project in Windows Movie Maker 2.6?

  Hi I made a movie that is 26 minutes long, with photos, effects and music.  I need to burn it to a dvd.  However, I am only offered the opportunity to save on my computer.  When I so it saves only the part of it, I made several times and saved the part varies between 5 and 20 minutes of pictures, but with all the music.  There is another option to save to the camera, but it's not a useful for my application.  There is no option to publish or save on DVD, so I wanted to save it on my laptop and then burn from there.  I can't cut the length of the project.  I spent hours trying to fix this, solutions of Googling, but in vain.  Do I need more RAM on my laptop?  Please help, this is something that I have to return to normal as soon as possible.  Thank you :-)

  Looks like music files is perhaps not fully compatible with the film
  Maker. MP3s can be problematic. The more reliable format is. WMA.

  Two things that may be worth a try...

  When you are ready to register... go to... Tools / Options / Compatibility
  tab and disable all filters / OK.

  Try to save.

  When you save... choose the DV - AVI option... it can produce a better
  result, but the file size will be much larger.

• How to combine two video projects in Windows Movie Maker?

  How to combine two projects?

  I started a project and I would like to import and more old project to combine.

  I guess that you are referring to the project .mswmm files?

  The following steps may be worth a try:

  Reach... File / open project... Select a project file.
  When the project appears on the timeline... go to...
  Edition / select all.

  Open a different project... to... Editing / paste.

  Now the content of the two projects should be on
  the chronology.

  To add more doing the same thing...

  Edition / select all... open a project... Editing / paste

  Another method would be to publish (save) each
  the project in film WMV format and then re-import
  both WMV clips and slide both to the
  timeline. Then, you could publish it as a simple video.

• 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

  In Vista 6.0, after having published and recorded segments of 5 minutes of video/photo, in Windows Movie Maker, I don't know how to combine all in creation of Windows DVD.

  Please help me with this project. I would greatly appreciate.

  clips into one. File WMV in Movie Maker.

• When I try to open a project in Windows Movie Maker...

  .. .with an ID file of .mswmm in my Movie Maker 2.1 version, all I get in the panel mounting is a big red X and a black screen in the video preview window.

  The Movie Maker-.mswmm project file does not include the source
  files... (Picture files, video Clips, music)... it saves only the location
  they are saved in your hard drive.

  If the source files have been moved, renamed, deleted or other-
  wise, inaccessible, you will see the red Xs.

  If the source files are still available... try right click the red Xs and
  see if you can access the current location and restore the path...
  otherwise, you will have to start with different source files.

• I was working on a project on windows movie maker, and now I don't see what I was doing!

  It was working fine but the preview screen does not reproduce the video I created, everything works, but the button play! It is well my clicks, but it does not play what I do?

  Mary - Hello and welcome to the forum... I put your two messages together because otherwise you may well end up distorted!

  I'm on W7 and think I can use a more recent version of MM - and I don't know if it works on Vista. I am aware that the old version users have experienced difficulties then it may be worth checking the site of MS if a newer version is available for the Vista operating system...

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads  (look for the Movie-Maker)

  Apart from that you might try running the repair tool by going to Control Panel - programs - uninstall a program...

  Select Windows Essentials/right click Uninstall and you will get the option to 'fix' - which - it may take a bit of time and when it is finished, restart your pc.

  Looks like you have saved your project files - they should be assigned. -Cheers. Ric.
