Publish HD movies with movie maker in 32-bit

Is there an upgrade or the etc that I can do to publish in HD on my 32-bit vista?  I'm not wanting to pay the price for upgrade to 64 just for HD movies.  Thank you!

Hi Bmoorecards5,

1. have you tried to publish movies in high definition with Windows movie maker?

2. you receive an error message?

Windows Movie Maker can produce content high definition in two video modes runs on Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate Edition: 720 p and 1080 p. The number represents the number of lines of vertical resolution and the p stands for progressive or non-interlaced. Many LCD and plasma televisions use 720 p or 1080 p modes.

    I did a 5 minute film in Movie Maker with titles and Audio.  Movie playback in the timeline or storyboard table - all right.  When I publish it, it plays for 2.5 minutes, and then I lose the video for the rest of the film.  It turns black.  The issuance and audio playback added to the end. But the videos do not play.  I tried to publish several times and it stops playing at the same place every time.

    Thank you for your help.

    Assuming that you are talking about Windows Movie Maker, not a 3rd party Director.

    Take a look at your video file of 5 min.
    What is the file format? The last 3 letters represent the file format.

    Windows Movie maker will support only a small handful of video file formats:
    Video files: .asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

    If you movie file format is not on the list above, you will need to google for a free video converter. No need to buy a. Free will do the job.
    Use the converter and change the format of your movie file.
    The best and most reliable way to convert is WMV format.

    Can someone help me please?

    Hello Karan139,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    Have you went to "Device Manager" to check it's not a problem with the card?  Have you tried to remove the drivers and reinstall?  I found a link that specifies this problem and has more information that may be useful.  Please let me know if this helped, or if you're still having problems.

  • Why my published video movie maker glitch and stops after about 40 seconds?

    I tried to post this video countless times. It works fine in the preview, has no error message, all the source files have not been moved and have no red x, and the gel will be about to halfway through a segment of the video, then part of the segment plays, but not all of it.

    I was converting my files using FormatFactory wmv source files.

    Any ideas?
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    What version of Movie Maker are you using?
    If you use Vista Movie Maker 6... It can

    If you are not running the latest version of the film

    Sometimes the files are played in the Movie Maker application
    but when they are encoded in a video of the final...
    problems can occur.

    What is the duration of this project? Sometimes
    large, complex projects can cause problems and the
    Difficulty is to create several small projects. If each
    segment is saved in the. WMV format... the Group
    of. WMV files can be re-imported in Movie Maker
    and combined into a final single movie file. Or they
    can be imported in creation of DVD and each item will be

  • Windows Movie Maker 2.6 to crash when recording

    Three possible causes of the failure to save:

    (1) the incompatible source files... (eventually... MPG or MP3)
    Sometimes it is useful to disable the filters... Tools / Options /.
    Compatibility tab... Uncheck all the boxes / OK.

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    (2) files source corrupted... the only solution for this would be to
    Remove the source files of the project one at a time and
    try to save each time until the problem file is discovered.

    (3) project is too big or too complex for system resources.
    Create several small projects... Save as WMV.
    Then re - import WMV files collected / drag in the timeline
    and record the final movie.

    The following of the former article has some info.

  • What kind of cd/dvd is the best for my video Windows Movie Maker filled and how can I burn it?

    OK... I've published my Movie Maker presentation.  It will be presented via a laptop computer and projected.  First of all, what kind of cd/dvd I need?  I know that this information is listed under the HELP section of the Movie Maker program, but what do you propose to help?  AND THEN... How can I do to burn video on cd?  I got to the question re: given dvd vs dvd-video and was confused (sorry... it doesn't take much!).  In my mind, it's a video, but the explanation stated that in this format must then be read via a dvd player.  Finally it can be read that way and it would be nice to have this option, but my goal is now to have played through a computer laptop and projected.  I tried to save it as a video dvd last night, but after almost two hours of "transformation" (my video completed is approximately 3-1/2 minutes), I eventually escape and stop.  Can you guide me through this in simple terms?  Thank you!

    DVD-R Virgin should work for you, and you can
    burn the video DVD in Windows DVD Maker.

  • HP Pavilion a6110n PC stops when you publish movies with Windows Movie Maker

    I use Windows Movie Maker to try to "Publish movie" for playback on a computer (creation '. ") WMV files") [200 MB of files created for 15-minute video].  When I run the app, even by itself, with no other applications running, the PC fan starts strong.  If the computer has served for a period of time, the computer will be completely and suddenly close, before ending the video creation.

    If I run Movie Maker when you first start up the computer, the machine can finish successfully creating the film without stopping.

    I don't know what I need to upgrade or replace.  The CPU is overheating?  Or the video card?  Or both?

    If I need to replace the fan, any suggestion would be appreciated.  (I'm talking a CPU fan? Graphics card fan? or what?)

    My PC Specs:

    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium SP1

    4 GB memory

    320GB SATA Hard Drive - 40GB available

    AMD 64 x 2 Dual Core processor 4400 + 2.30 GHz

    Hi, Yes this video rendering really puts a load on your cpu!  The first thing that comes to mind, and the easiest to fix, is simply clean up the inevitable dust bunnies that accumulate inside the tower.  Have you already checked for that?  If this is not the case, remove the side panel of the tower and clean all the dust, especially around the heatsink from the processor.  Compressed canned air works very well for this.  Here is your product guide that shows how to remove the side panel: a6110n be sure to unplug the power cord from your machine before you start on it!  And let us know what you found.

    In addition, I think that you may know this already because you have taken the trouble to include in your listing, but your hard drive is too full.  Vista is a resource hog, memory and available disk space.  He needs a lot of space to work.  And if it doesn't have enough room, it makes your memory and cpu have to work hard.  You ran a disk clean up lately?

    Start button-> computer-> right click on drive C: Local-> properties-> click "Disk Cleanup".  A pop-up window appears.  I put a control over everything on the list.  Then click on the 'More Options' tab at the top of this window, look under "system restore and shadow copies ' and click on 'Clean up '.  Which may take several minutes if you have not done before.  When it's finished, go back to the top of this window, click on 'Disk cleanup' and click the 'OK' button at the bottom of the window to remove all the files that you checked.  You must THEN run a defragmentation.

    In my opinion, and depending on how much space you freed up with cleaning the disc, you will need to spend at least 50 GB of your data files on this hard drive and maintain.   And then you need to add an additional hard drive to your system.  Many options for this just depends on your exact needs.

    in any case, it's my ideas.  If cleaning the dust bunnies and the hard drive does not resolve the problem then perhaps someone else on the forum will be able to helpl with more technical type suggestions.  I think they're going to need additional information about your system, however.  For example, I noticed that you added 2 GB of RAM.  And you mentioned something about a graphics card fan, but your machine came with integrated graphics.  Also added a video card?  If so, exactly what video card do you have installed and have you also changed the power supply?  Any other changes to your machine to factory specifications?

    Movie Maker will not film because of "another user is running Movie Maker on this computor... publish »

    I'm trying to publish a movie on this computor in Windows Movie Maker. The files are .wmv with a band his .wav and are all stored on my computor. I performed this task with success several times and there is enough free space on the computor.

    When I click on publish, there are a few seconds where he tries to publish, but then the program goes into a gel and the dialog box appears with the following: "another user is running Windows Movie Maker on this computor. Please close the other session of Windows Movie Maker before starting Windows Movie Maker again".

    When I click Close, there is an icon of wmv on my desk with the title of my project, but it is empty. I am the only user on this computor and I am puzzled as to why this should be implemented. I tried to turn the filters but nothing helped. One thing that I tried was to publish the band sound and the titles and credits without video files and I found it worked.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you Volenteer J. How would you like to know if a .wmv file is corrupt? Is there something I can do to click the .wmv files that tell me if they are corrupt? I need to identify the files that are causing my problem.

    ==================================================
    Sorry... but it seems that I have more questions than answers.

    You said initially that you could publish the soundtrack and titles with success...
    I was wondering if you tried to add a .wmv file to see if you could publish?

    What was the source of the. WMV files? They are all from the same source?

    They were converted from another format? If_Yes_ maybe another
    Converter would be worth a try.

    You change them widely? (split, rotation, transitions...)

    There is a possibility that you could import the Windows Media .wmv files
    Encoder and convert them to... .WMV to .wmv. Seems pointless, I know...
    but it would create a new .version of the. WMV files and can fix that
    perhaps never the problem.
