Stop editing in windows movie maker

I made a video, it is long 20 min, but I don't see how this is a problem, anyway since I can't "save under" anything but a movie maker project file, I tried to publish and publish on any folder or some setting I put it, it stops at 43% and then the estimated time it will take increases indeffinitly (got up to 266 times)

someone help me publish it or find a way to convert it to wmv because this video is awesome and I don't want to lose him or not be able to share with people.

Hello Lord of the gingers,

Thanks for posting.  It seems you may have one of two problems.  Either you don't have enough disk space hard for the conversion process and final converted video or your power saving options disable your hard drives.  We will try to check both of those to see if you have enough disk space hard for the conversion process & final video and changing options you energy savings.  I have included a link to guide you on how to change your power settings here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935799 or by following the guidelines below.

To change an existing plan

  1. Click to open the Power Options.

  2. On the select a power plan page, click on change settings for the plan under the plan that you want to change.

  3. Settings change for the plan page, choose the display settings and the sleep that you want to use when your computer is running on battery and when it is plugged.

  4. If you don't want to change the settings, more, click on save changes.

    -or-

    To change additional power settings, click on change advanced power settings and then perform steps 5 and 6.

  5. On the Advanced Settings tab, expand the category that you want to customize, expand each setting that you want to change and choose the values you want to use when your computer is running on battery and when it is plugged.

Click OK and then click on save changes.

Let me know if this helps you

    I am trying to edit a dvd. I know that I have to convert the vob to a wmv file but it keeps shortening the length of the video. I downloaded at least 6 converter programs and none doesn't seem to help. I would like to edit this video in Windows Movie Maker. Help, please!

  • How to capture a video from a home made dvd to use to create a video edited with Windows Movie Maker

    I have a DVD made home to a sporting event that my son has played in. I'm trying to get the DVD video in a file on my PC so that I can use it with Windows Movie Maker. I know how to create and edit a video on movie maker, but I can't seem to figure out how to capture video from this DVD. It is probably a 'rookie' question, but I couldn't find what I needed by using 'help' or 'search', so I hope someone in this forum can tell me how to do this.

    =======================================
    If you're running Vista Home Premium or Ultimate, you can
    be able to import files into Movie Maker directly from the
    DVD... the files you want are in the VIDEO_TS folder and have
    a VOB extension.

    Also... the info is maybe worth a visit:

    DVD Movie Maker 6... in Vista Home Basic
    http://www.Papajohn.org/newsletters/185-DVDtoMM6inVistaHomeBasic.html

    When you insert the DVD in your DVD player... close
    all the windows that can open and then go to... Start /.
    Computer... right click the icon for the DVD player
    is in, and then select Explorer.

    The files you need from the DVD are the. VOB files.
    You will find them in the VIDEO_TS folder. Copy them
    in a folder on your hard drive.

    First... just try to rename one of the. VOB files to
    . MPG or .avi and see if it will matter in Movie Maker.
    If import works... drag the file to the timeline and
    Economy/publication it to .wmv or .avi format. Then...
    Re - import new video film for editing purposes.

    (FWIW... you can probably play the files renamed
    in Windows Media Player to be sure that VOB

    If you are unable to import the files they need to be converted
    another .wmv format would be a good choice.

  • Problems with editing in Windows Movie Maker

    I have Vista and I am trying to publish my finished video, but it won't work. He stops and closes completely after about 5 seconds. I went to the event viewer to see the problem and it is said that the failed module is msvcr80.dll. I did this for every thing I try to publish, long or short videos, and I used only .bmp, .wmv and .wav files. Help, please! This video is a final for the school. Thank you.

  • Edition file Windows Movie Maker as my Windows DVD Maker solution get an error unspecified 1.6% each time?

    I can't publish my holiday video (multiple files linked together by me in Windows Movie Maker with title screens before each clip and music) as Windows DVD Maker claims an unspecified error of 1.6% each time. I changed the output directory, but that did not help. Also, when in Movie Maker / a lot of DVD Maker icon stream through the bar near the clock, some white with small print out and some red with "Ffv", which I can only think fact obstacle to the whole process!

    I was wondering if I could download it my Windows Movie Maker in another free DVD file, making the software and if you have any suggestions?
    Thank you

    Last reply first... No, are the Movie Maker project files
    not compatible with other video editing software.

    You are running Windows or Vista Movie Maker 6
    Live Movie Maker?

    It is possible that your project is too complex for
    your system resources but it is more than likely
    some of your files source (Photos, video Clips,
    Audio clips) are not fully compatible with Windows
    Movie Maker.

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

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

    Conversion to formats compatible before importing
    in Movie Maker may be the solution.

    There are many converters available on the net... some
    free... some detail.

    The following freeware converter is just one example:

    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck

    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag > FFSetup290.exe< out="" of="" the="">
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    Next, 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 video clips on the main screen...

    Select "all to WMV" / OK...

    That should do it...

    ======================================
    Two thoughts...

    (1) you may have a problem with audio / music which is not
    fully compatible with Movie Maker. The best choice of audio.
    music formats would be .wma or .wav.

    (2) the addition of transitions between the photos will reduce the picture
    duration with overlap.

  • Sorry, unable to save your movie. Find missing files or delete the unusable items in your project and then try again. "Error: 0 x 87160129" during video editing in Windows Movie Maker/Windows Live Movie Maker

    I use the same device which was used to make movies in the past with no problems. The error message is sorry, unable to save your movie. Find missing files or delete the unusable items in your project and then try again. Error: 0 x 87160129

    I've never had any problems with this before and made more than 100 movies using WLMM or WMM. Thanks for any help. Would that my camera settings? I use a Lumix.

    I just found out what the problem is freakin ' and the solution. If the inserted videos have different "video codec" then it will not work!

    Before adding videos to Movie Maker, throw in a video converter and convert them all. (Even if the original format is WMV, convert again to WMV) that will ensure the output videos have the same codec!
    This solved the problem for me, hope, it does for you too...

    I guess just that you run Vista Movie Maker 6?

    You say that you have changed the music pieces... and now you want to
    to combine the music.

    Does this mean you want to record music as another
    audio file in addition to the file video .wmv?

    The best would be to extract the audio file of the publication
    (recorded). WMV video file.

    To accomplish this... just reimport the published (recorded). WMV
    file in Movie Maker and then drag it to the audio / music... then
    Publish (save the file) and it will become a. WMA audio file.

    If my understanding of this issue is incorrect, please provide

  • 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?

  • Why does my windows Movie Maker stop burn to my dvd to 60percent without message

    Burning my family video with windows movie maker, from the (encoded) copy to dvd disc, and it stops at 60% completion with no error message.  How can I solve this problem.

    Thank you

    WE

    Just a few ideas...

    Large, complex projects are prone to problems.
    If you create several small projects and publish (Save)
    each format .wmv or .avi movie to a folder on
    your hard drive, you can then import the clips collected
    DVD Maker and each one becomes a scene
    (Chapter)... you can have up to 18 scenes.

    ===

    Your source files might have compatibility issues...

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

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv or dv - avi
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    ===

    It may be interesting to try to open Movie Maker and go to...
    Tools / Options / Compatibility tab and disable all the
    filters / OK.

    ===

    Publication (save) the project to the DV - AVI or WMV
    film in Movie Maker format and then import the
    movie DVD Maker file may be worth a try.
