Silleren,
Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

Most often the cause of this problem is not having the right codecs for the files you are trying to publish, or files are not compatible with movie maker.  Here are some informative articles that should help you to solve your problems.

  • Windows Movie Maker will not publish my videos properly!

    Hey guys. anyway I publish a video Director and 15 Minute long play through it fine, but after its publication, and I watch the video file it freezes at the same image (the media player does not freeze, he continues to play through, the video comes out badly) and all the audio stops and then the screen blacks on entirely for the rest of the video. Does anyone have a solution to this? I'd appreciate any help. Thank you

    Whenever I try and publish my video, about 19% through, it will say "Windows Movie Maker cannot save the movie to the specified location. "Verify that the original source files used in your movie are still available, that the backup location is still available, and that there is enough available disk space and then try again .

    I tried everything that I could find-unchecking filters, reset, settings, shorten, taking the effects, transitions, and even download free audio and put it back later. Please help , I spent all day on this video.

    More than likely you are using one or more incompatible source files...

    Watch the video file. The last 3 letters represent the file format.

    Windows Movie maker only supports the following video file formats:

    Video files: .asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

    If yours is not on the above list, Movie Maker will have probel play.

    In this case, you will have to google for a free video converter and change the format of your video file to WMV. WMV format is the most reliable format for Windows. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

    Check the file formats that you had inserted in movie maker. You might have used files that are not supported by the Director.
    Photo: jpg, png, bmp
    For video: WMV, AVI
    Music: mp3, wav, wma

    Note: If you use google for formats of files supported by Windows Movie Maker, you will find that the list is much longer than what I've listed. This is because I find those on my list are the most reliable and you don't have to worry about not having the right codec for files.

    =============================
    Just some thoughts...

    This happens usually when the source files are
    not totally compatible and also may be linked
    transitions.

    In Movie Maker, you could try to go into tools.
    Options / Compatibility tab and disable all
    the filters.

    Also you can try to convert your source files
    to different formats.

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

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

    And you can try to remove the transitions.

  • Project Windows Movie Maker won't play in Windows Media Player

    I created a 'film' in Windows Movie Maker - not a bad little program.  I used to be a professional video tape, and you can do things with Movie Maker and that you can't do with the edition of tape cassette - even in a television station in a big city.

    The film plays well in Movie Maker, but he won't play in Windows Media Player (Version 11).  I have Vista Home Version on my computer.

    I want to be able to send e-mail to friends and family who do not have Windows Movie Maker - but have Windows Media Player (not sure which versions have all my friends).  Until now, whenever I try to play the movie in Media Player, I get the following message:

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.

    When I click on the "get help from web" button, it takes me to this page:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/Webhelp/default.aspx?&mpver=11.0.6002.18111&ID=C00D1199&ContextId=83&OriginalID=80040265

    This page does not give me the solution to the problem and gives me no option to download/install the codec I need.  I don't know what a codec is and don't really care to know.    I just need to know:

    Should which codec I?

    Where can I download it?

    What are the two products of Microsoft.  Can they be compatible?  One of the options presented during "editing" the file is to be sent by e-mail.  Not much good if the e-mail recipient is unable to play.

    I can also play the movie using Real Player or I-Tunes - but it of okay for me if they work in these players or not, since my friends and family would be no players on their computers.
