Movie maker project times shows more than the actual duration of the project.

Original title: I have a project which lasts 23 minutes, but Director tells me that it is more than 24 hours long and I cannot add audio

I had to stop my draft edition for 2 weeks and when I opened it I get this message (no error code)

Hello

1. What is the format of the project you are trying to open using Movie Maker (Power Point presentation, video)?

2. it happens only with specific projects?

3. have you made no changes of software/hardware on your computer before the show?

These questions usually surfaces due to minor errors in editing the project. Try to load the source file once again and create a new project and check with the question.

  • My saved Windows Movie Maker Project open with video clips in the Audio editing panel and vice versa (NOT as it was created). Can I move them back where they belong?

    After days of the creation of a filmmaker 'project' I 'saved project' one last time, then reopen and publish a movie.  All my video Clips (phtotos) now appear in the Audio editing / music along the bottom with only a video clip standing in line of the video of this 'slide show' of 90 minutes.  Is it possible to move these clips to which they belong without having to recreate the whole project?

    What happens if you try to read the project in Movie Maker?

    Looks like your project .mswmm file is corrupt (starting
    Perhaps more than the best approach). The project can be as far
    too big and too complex to publish (save) with success as a
    video file.

    I suggest that you create several small projects
    and publish (save), each of them in the. WMV video format
    and then re-import the collection. To combine WMV files
    in a single movie.

    You can also import collection. Clips WMV to DVD
    Manufacturer and each clip, would have become a scene (chapter)
    on the DVD.

    Hi laura234646,

    Did you check if the problem occurs with another drive?

    This problem may be caused by audio\video filters present on the computer.

    Step 1: I suggest that disable you video filters and driver, to do this, follow these steps:

    Director of open windows,

    1. click on Toolsand then click Options.

    2. click on the compatibility tab.

    3. to turn off a filter, clear the check box next to the name of the video filter.

    Now, check if the problem is resolved.

    (See the section, what can I do if I have problems with video in Windows Movie Maker filters?)

    If the problem persists,

    Step 2: Reduce hardware acceleration to check

    1. open display settings by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, on appearance and customization, personalization, and then clicking display settings.

    2. click on display settings, and then click Advanced settings.

    3. click on the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    4. reduce the hardware acceleration slider to zero.

    Opening of a creative film project

    I try to use windows movie maker, but when I opened a project I worked on, the imported images and storyboard table display more photos that I imported.  Instead, there is the title of the photo with a big red X, where the captain is supposed to be.  Help!  How can I open and work on a project that I have already started?

    ====================================
    Movie Maker project files do not include your source files...
    photos, video clips, music files, etc... When these files are
    moved, renamed, deleted or is otherwise not available...
    you will see red Xs in Movie Maker. If files are always
    available, you can click with the right button on the red Xs and go to the
    files and attempt to restore the path.

  • Windows Movie Maker - Audio only, which plays in the exported project

    Hello.

    I did a project in windows movie maker with video and audio files. Project perfect cheek (the two audio/video playback) in windows movie maker when I am in the phase "creation/editing. When I export it and save the project as a. MP4 or. WMV file and try to play in Windows Media Player, Quicktime or VLC, as the audio of my theatre project. There is no video. However, when I play the other. MP4 files or. WMV files via these media players, they play very well. So I think that the problem is with the export of the Movie Maker project. Also, thinking that I have perhaps incompatible video files to Windows Movie Maker, I tried just using Jpeg files with audio to create a slide show, thinking that it would work with standard Habitat. Yet once, however, that the audio is played with a project containing pictures (no video). Any ideas?

    Audio was working fine, just no photos or video showing once the project has been saved as a movie. So, I tried your solution of creating a short slide show with photos only and no luck. I uninstalled and reinstalled movie maker and still no luck. Downloaded the pack codek for windows 7 and still no luck.

    So, I decided to download the Vista windows movie maker for my OS to windows 7 and everything works like a charm. Don't know how or why, but the version of Vista is flawless on my windows 7.

    Thanks for your suggestions. I appreciate the help.

  • Windows Movie Maker project doesn't find or burns correctly in DVD maker overview

    I have created a Windows Movie Maker project, composed of many avi files (129 min) and I can see the entire project in Movie Maker, but when I go to burn a DVD in DVD maker I can only listen to excerpts from the first minutes 33 and the rest is a black screen with no audio (as if there's nothing there). Also when I burn a DVD only burn the first 33 min.  I tried to publish the project to my computer in WMV format, but I get an error when I try to open in DVD creation that the file is not indexed and cannot be opened in creation of DVD. I tried to uncheck the vidoe filters and that has not worked.  Help, please. I put many hours of work into this and am very frustrated.

    The file is too large and complex. The best would be to create
    several small projects... To each post in the. WMV or. DV - AVI
    format in a folder on your hard drive. Then you can import the collection
    video files in DVD Maker and each clip becomes a scene
    (Chapter) on the DVD. (You can have up to 18 scenes).

    The following links explain how to post:

    Windows Vista - publish a movie in Windows Movie Maker
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/publish-a-movie-in-Windows-Movie-Maker

    The following chart shows where the DV - AVI option.

    Also... for a project for more than two hours... There is a possibility that
    You may need to use a DVD Double layer...

  • Adding my own music to Windows Movie Maker projects & computers mi change project.

    I used Windows Movie Maker to make two DVDs for the graduation of daughter gifts.  I was almost done and tried to add my own music but can't seem to figure out how.  In addition, I discovered that my disc on my computer was not working so I saved my projects to a USB key and went to another computer.  When I opened the project format and title pages were there, but all the photos that I spent hours to download and organize projects disappeared.  How can I get my projects into DVD, and how do I add my own music in them?  If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. I'm short on time.

    The Movie Maker project file does not include the source files
    (Photos, video clips, music videos) it simply records the path
    the files have been imported since the file/s.

    Whan you see red Xs where thumbnails used to be
    in Movie Maker, it indicates the original source files have
    been deleted, moved, renamed or is otherwise not available.

    If you had a backup file of all source files on your new
    system, you can right-click on the red Xs and get access to the
    location of the files and restore the path, otherwise
    you will have ot start again.

    With regard to the addition of your own music... If you have any questions
    import music files it is probably a problem of format.
    Convert music clips on the. WMA format before
    import into Movie Maker should provide a better result.

    There are many converters available on the net... the
    the following link is an example:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory (freeware)
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
    (the 'direct link' is faster)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup295.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the last screen)
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    First... after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your music files on the main screen...

    Select "while"WMA"/ OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

  • I do not understand why my creation of windows DVD burn only 1% of one of my windows movie maker projects.

    Hello

    I made a video of my Windows Movie Maker project and have tried several times to burn through my Windows DVD Maker with the burning of 7% max.  After that, it gets stuck.  However, my other several attempts were a result of burning of 1% and it stuck.  I've left overnight to see if it was the capacity but the next day it is still 1%.  I did other projects without problem.  It is only with this project.  I don't understand why it won't let me if I used Windows movie maker without problem.  The video was originally in AVI, but I was able to convert a 3GP using dvdvideosoft software. Then only, I have done a project using my Windows Movie Maker.  The full minutes of this project is 90 minutes, while the DVD that I want to burn it holds 150 minutes.  Can you help me?  Tried several things and can not find the solution.  I don't know that there must be a solution.

    What or who persuaded allows you to convert AVI, which is supported by Windows, to 3GP, which is not supported by Windows?

    If you must, convert AVI to WMV format.
    Bypass Windows Movie Maker.
    Add the WMV video in Windows DVD Maker directly.
    Try to burn now.
