  • 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... 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 download)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup290.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the final screens)
    (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...

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

    That should do it...

    Good luck...

  • Windows DVD Maker doesn't burn files .wmv/wlmp video high definition?

    Hey all,.

    Long time user WMM, but with the recent switch to Win7, I'm having a hard time with WLMM.  In short, create the movie in WLMM is a snap.  Burn a DVD quality is another story.

    I am using video clips high definition AVCHD from my new Sony CyberShot camera and showing the film on a Samsung 50 "720 p plasma.  If I burn a project WLMM created (Save Movie-> burn a DVD) and burn it in DVD maker, the quality is absolutely terrible on the plasma. It looks like an old VHS tape.  So, I guess the resolution 480 I saved is the problem.

    So, if I save the project with high-definition (720 p - 1280 x 720) in WLMM and try to extract this file in Windows DVD maker, I get the error "0 files have been added.  1 file could not be added.  The \xxxxx\xxxxx\xxxxx.wlmp file is not a supported file type, and it cannot be imported. "How is it possible that Windows DVD maker cannot burn a file created by its sister product Windows Live Movie Maker?  Am I missing something here, trying to extract a file to DVD Maker WLMM, or is it not possible?  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    =========================================
    Just a thought...

    . WLMP is only the Live Movie Maker file... what happens if you save
    the Movie Maker project in the format video .wmv and then try to import
    in DVD Maker?

    Also... you can find help in the following forum:

  • Vista Windows Movie Maker gives message "doesn't fit" releasing on DVD.

    Vista Windows Movie Maker gives an error "does not fit" when I try to publish my movie to a DVD (12 minutes too long). I removed half of the clips in the storyboard table and I still get the same error. The length of the film remains 02:42.

    If your burner is compatible... a double layer 8.5 GB DVD blank may be worth a try.
    (failure is a real possibility... make a video 02:42 is more than most systems)
    can handle)

    After the removal of the files in the storyboard table did you resave the project before embarking
    DVD Maker?

    The following older maybe offer some ideas on reducing the size of the project.

    Movie Maker - how to divide a project complex smaller?
    http://www.myvideoproblems.com/tutorials/MovieMaker/SplitComplexProject.htm

    In many cases not most of the large case projects / complex problems.
    Creation of several small projects and recording each in the. Film WMV
    format in a folder on your hard disk may be the answer. Then you can import
    the collection of. WMV to DVD Maker files and each clip becomes a scene
    (Chapter) you have to have up to 18 scenes.

  • Windows DVD Maker do not accept the wmv files error file is not supported.

    Hello

    I just downloaded a video on YouTube using the 'FreeYouTubeDownload' of DVDVideosoft software.  He managed to create a file wmv to me.  I know it works because when I click on the video file and click on 'play', Windows Media Player automatically opens and plays the video.  So far so good.

    I want to burn the file on a DVD.  When I open Windows DVD Maker, click on 'Add items' and click on the video file wmv, I get an error message saying that the file is not supported.

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium. This is my first time using DVD creation.  I checked the DVD Maker for filters, but there aren't any.  What gives?  WMV files are supposed to be supported by DVD Maker, Yes?  My DVD authoring program is defective?  Or is the file that the program created YouTubeDownloader defective?  I think not, because Windows Media Player does not play the video.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Following up on my own question.  Further investigation revealed that from other sources wmv files were working with DVD Maker.  Therefore, the wmv files, created by the freeware program that I used that were not compatible.  I then used the freeware program to create files avi instead, and they were working with DVD Maker.  I did my DVD and all is well.

  • Windows DVD Maker error message unknown

    This is a frustrating problem I have with Windows DVD Maker that no one can seem to explain. I have a new computer, less than a month, running Windows 7. I tried to burn clips of film on DVD for various friends and family. I have finished 3 or 4 DVD with success. All of a sudden, during the burning process, I get to a point approximately 0.3 to 0.4 percent encoded when I get an error message that the DVD cannot be done due to an unspecified error. All that fresh, new, with the package of disk I'm trying to use ends up with the same message. The clips have not changed, filters have not changed, settings have not changed, I just did with some success without problem, now, all of a sudden, it cannot burn discs more. That's happened?  What should I do about it?

  • Windows DVD Maker Gets the error with a .avi file - the file C:\\...avi is not valid or is corrupted.

    I try to use Windows DVD Maker and copy/convert a file .avi on a DVD and get the following error message when I try to add a .avi file to the queue.  I tried this on multiple .avi files:

    ****************************************************

    0 items added successfully

    1 file could not be added

    The C:\\...avi file is not valid or is corrupted.

    ****************************************************

    Also, I must stress that I have no problem looking at one/play the file on my computer, so I don't think that the file itself is really corrupted.

    I have not downloaded another software to help 'fix' this problem.

    This is my first time you try to use this software to create a DVD...

    Please advise on what I can to help resolve this problem!

    Thank you-

    The .vob file format is not a supported format file Windows DVD maker. You can try to convert the video files to a supported file format and then try to burn the DVD still. Windows DVD Maker supports digital video files in WMV or AVI container format.

  • Not possible to burn a DVD on the Satellite A100-338 using Windows DVD Maker

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100. I'm trying to burn a DVD using Microsoft Windows DVD Maker and a Sony DVD - RW. The laptop has a carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA device.

    When I try to burn a DVD, a progress bar appears and is about 2% before the hanging.

    I also tried to format the DVD first, and which is progressing well before coming up with an error message saying that the drive could not be formatted.

    Anyone got any ideas? Am I missing something completely obvious?

    Hello

    the following things could probably help you with your problem:

    -> control if a new BIOS for your machine and a new FIRMWARE update for your DVD player are available. Update the BIOS and the player firnware
    -> use another applications burning like Nero, CDBurnerXP or other thing that is usually know work well with almost all DVD - RW readers out there
    -> use a DIFFERENT brands of DVD media because the carpet * a readers are really picky

    If all these steps fail, then it is possible that your drive is defective and must be replaced.

    I just finished creating a dvd in Windows DVD Maker. He played very well on the PC and burn to my DVD - R Memorex without problem.  However, now that he's in my Toshiba DVD player, nothing happens.  I have a black and white screen with down right a small square box, color.  No display of numbers on reading DVD player.  The Toshiba site indicates that it should play DVD-r.  Need of this DVD to a presentation in a few days.  What's wrong???!!!

    I'm not sure at 100%, but something similar happened to me when I created a movie in windows movie maker.
    what I had to do was to convert the file to an AVI file that I was able to do as part of the utility of movie maker, and then import the file into a dvd creator software utility called (dvd Creator free 2) and then I could read in my dvd player. It is a download free .you corresponds to the URL if you want to give it a try http://www.minidvdsoft.com/dvdcreator/ hope this helps.
