Vista movie maker clip is shorter, once serious on DVD
Series of clips added to Vista movie maker 6 to make short. Clips work perfectly on preview but once the DVD is burnt a few clips are shorter when played on a DVD player.
Thanks for your reply J, followed the instructions to the letter but unfortunately same result.
Clip ends early, fading out & then fading the next in the movie clip.
==================================
All the clips are the same format?
Transitions allow portions of the video to overlap clips.
That's how it fades smoothly from one clip to another.
Have you tried without transitions?
You can adjust the length of transitions?

useful on the computer that created for a re-release in Movie Maker

you unless you have the files video sources of origin.Sounds like when you imported the video copy of your friend of

Cannot import. In Vista Movie Maker MOV files
I have pictures in my folder of photos I want to make a DVD. Some images are video clips with a file extension. MOV. When I open windows movie maker and click on "importt" I find my photo file and select one of the video clips and try ti import it. I get a message that says "cannot import that movie maker does not recognize the codec. What should I do to get this program to accept my video clips with the .mov file extensions?
Hello PorterQuinn,
Thank you for posting. You will need a 3rd party software program or conversion to convert .mov to another type of file that will be recognized by Movie maker. There are a few conversion tools free availible. You can use your favorite search engine to find some of them.
Please let me know if this helps you.
Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk. Zack

Why the length of film does not change when I remove Vista Movie Maker clips?
You have not answered my other question. I get an error "does not fit" when you publish a movie on dvd. I deleted half the clips in the storyboard and length does not change. I always get the error "will not fit". After I saved the project. It seems that it becomes the length of the imported clips not what is in the table of Storyboard. The length of the table of Storyboard is only 01:30, but the length in the window shows 02:42 that is causing the error. It seems to me that it should use the length of the table of Storyboard because it's what makes the final video on dvd.
Yes... adding or removing items from the timeline should change the duration of the project.
The files in your component collections have no effect on the duration of the project.I suggested that you publish in the movie .wmv format to see if the version with clips
removed would still last for 02:42.As I have said from the beginning... creating several small projects may be your solution.
I'm sorry that my suggestions seem redundant to you. Perhaps you could find assistance elsewhare.

That_might_make a difference of three things.(1) in Movie Maker... go... Tools / Options / Compatibility tab
and uncheck all filters / OK(2) check your source file formats...
Several formats are apparently compatible with
Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:Photos - bmp

You are running Windows or Vista Movie Maker 6
Live Movie Maker?Have you tried to save your Movie Maker project
in the format of WMV movie to a folder on your hard drive
disk before importing in DVD Maker?Sorry... I don't have the exact answer, but I know
some questions that may contribute to this problem...(1) using the incompatible sources in the project files.
Several formats are apparently compatible with
Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:Photos - bmp
Video - wmv
Audio - wav, wma, wmv(2) the project is too large and/or complex.
The fix for this would be to create several small
projects and save each of them in the movie WMV
format in a folder on your hard drive.The collected WMV files can then be re-imported
in Movie Maker to bring together in a single
film or they can be imported into DVD Maker
and each comes a scene on a DVD.(3) codec issues.
Sometimes, this can be corrected by opening film
Manufacturer and go to the... Tools / Options / Compatibility
tab, and uncheck all filters / OK.Not an option if you are running Live Movie maker
but you can do it in DVD Maker,See the following article:
