I am trying to create a movie with Windows Movie Maker to publish on Youtube.

When I publish the movie with the .wmv extension, the film is only about half the screen upper and the lower half is green.  When I choose the .avi format, the file is too large to upload to Youtube(508MB). What should I do?  Thank you.

The info... copied on the net... may be worth a visit:

The Green problem bar setting in Windows Movie Maker
http://www.bernzilla.com/item.php?id=884

When I tried to follow the directions, I was unable to find XVid on my
computer.  So I googled XVid and then (I think) the 2nd entrance to
Download XVid.  After I downloaded it, I could follow the directions
bernzilla and when I published a video - Voila! no green bar!

Just a thought... but if you can publish to the .avi format
with success... then, you can try convert from .avi to the
.wmv format.

There are to many converters available on the net...
the following links are some examples.

Proceed at your own risk *.

    I just finished creating a dvd in Windows DVD Maker. He played very well on the PC and burn to my DVD - R Memorex without problem.  However, now that he's in my Toshiba DVD player, nothing happens.  I have a black and white screen with down right a small square box, color.  No display of numbers on reading DVD player.  The Toshiba site indicates that it should play DVD-r.  Need of this DVD to a presentation in a few days.  What's wrong???!!!

    what I had to do was to convert the file to an AVI file that I was able to do as part of the utility of movie maker, and then import the file into a dvd creator software utility called (dvd Creator free 2) and then I could read in my dvd player. It is a download free .you corresponds to the URL if you want to give it a try http://www.minidvdsoft.com/dvdcreator/ hope this helps.

    not to call it an 'Upgrade '.

    Personally, I suggest making small
    projects, or even a first part and a second part on
    two DVD.

    If you save your Movie Maker projects to DV - AVI
    format and when you import within the limit of the DVD Maker
    the total duration of about 1 hour for DVD

  • Help - I am trying to create a playlist with Winamp

    Hey guys,.

    I'm having a nightmare of a time.  I just got my Sansa Clip and I'm creating playlists on it without WMP.  I already searched the forum, widely and looked here for the better part of 3 hours and finally I decided to just post a new thread since the 'old' do not seem to help much at all.

    I am running Windows XP sp2.  I'm trying to create the playlist in Winamp.  My video is in MSC mode.  After following the instructions, I finally found here, I could create a playlist * and * it worked.  There are two problems, I met at this stage.

    (1) after you create the playlist in Winamp, I have to unplug the Clip, then reconnect it before the playlist occurs.

    (2) after #1 above, there * 2 * identical entries in the 'Portable' of the Winamp Media Library list, each with the same media list and playlist list.

    (3) if I click on the playlist in Winamp, the entry is completely empty.

    There must be a simple way to create/edit a playlist on the clip.  But as I said, 3 hours later and I'm hardly closer to a practical solution.  Almost everything what I found in the forum and online are either old or only offer pieces of the puzzle together.

    Any help would be appreciated wildly.  Thanks in advance!

    PS. for some reason my computer is unable to upgrade to WMP 10

    1. Yes, it will not be displayed (on your drive) until you disconnect and updates the database.
    2. I never use the 'Portable' list Simply go to 'Preferences Library' Winamp > media > click the spyware Folders tab and the button "Add folder...". ». Access the letter of your Clip (E: for example) device. Click on the button "scan now". Now he 'sees' your Clip in the library, not the hard drive of your computer. From there, you can assign songs to your newly created playlist, and you shouldn't get playlists [empty] after you are finished.
  • Movies created with Windows DVD maker, hang up or restart

    I used DVD maker several times in the past without this problem.  Recently, I tried to burn a DVD, and a 10-minute clip that was just started.  I reburned the DVD, without this clip, and at around the same point in time, is the same thing, is not the file.  I tried to burn another DVD, with all the clips of orignial, without any other files or programs, and this time there were several hang ups or reboots.  No idea what is happening and how to fix it?

    Thank you for your comments.  I did not use Movie maker to make the DVD, I was using DVD maker and it has worked well in the past, with the same type of video files that I currently use. I don't think I did any changes since I modified a DVD burned, but it is possible.  I'll try to remove the filters and see what happens.
