Windows DVD Maker will not play on the TV DVD player

I have Windows Vista, and Windows Movie Maker to make a movie. I've published using Windows DVD Maker. I've made several copies and sent to various members of my family. While I was able to watch them when I tested them on my TV dvd player, none of my family members are able to watch their copies on their dvd players. In addition, when I insert the dvd in my computer's dvd player, it won't play either. How can I fix?

Thank you. What I did just check "ffdshow" configuration and found that the codec for mp2 was disabled, so I let him. Now when I load the dvd into my computer it starts automatically.

Now, my question is that I have to burn the new dvd for my family, so they can watch on their dvd player TV? Are their other codecs apart from that I have activated that must be adjusted so that DVDs can be found on other dvd players?

======================================
You didn't say if you have a folder VIDEO_TS on the DVD...

OK... you say you can play DVDs on your freestanding
DVD player and on your computer. Startups that appears
DVDs are fine and the problems of members of your family
need to be cleared up on their end.

One thing I would try would be to publish the project as a
.wmv movie file in a folder on my hard drive. Then I'd
the following freeware to create a video DVD. There are
a small chance that it would work better for you.

(FWIW) It's always a good idea to create a system

  • Sometimes the clips in Windows Movie Maker will not play during preview and not at all after publication...

    Hello!  I just create a movie using Windows Movie Maker (HP Pavilion dv6000/Windows Vista Home Premium).  During the PREVIEW, the first part of the video of my film sometimes will not play (view) while the audio continues. Sometimes he will play (view).  All clips are saved in the right place, the file formats are correct, and everything else that I think is done correctly.  In addition, after the publication of the video, he did the same thing; some parts of the beginning is not playing (see) only the audio.  I believe that this can have started happening after a few times when an error message pops up saying something like "Video player has stopped responding, but has revived with success...» "or something like that.

    Now, I tried a few things to try to fix the problem.  I noticed that if I take the transitions and effects on the clips then they play but every time. I don't know why this happens only at the beginning of the movie and not all of the film since I also have clips with transitions and effects in the end.  Help!  This is my first time using this program/do a movie (and it's really good if I must say for me... he can win an Oscar! * smile *), but I wonder if I did something by mistake at the origin of this problem...

  • Windows Movie Maker will not play

    I made a video for a school project. It was published and implemented well enough. I taped a cd, he brought to the school, and the video wouldn't play. How to make it compatible?

    It works that way.
    The video that you have recorded on the CD only plays in your computer.

    So that the video be played in other computers or DVD players, you need to burn video to a DVD using Windows DVD creation.

    Windows DVD creation is included in Vista Home premium and Ultimate.
    If you versio of Vista is not one of the above, you will need to install a 3rd party DVD Maker.

  • Why the clip will not play in the window of the observer?

    Hello world. It's me again. So, I just started working on a project, and the clip will not play in the window of the observer. In the timeline panel, I see that there are images to play, but the Viewer is black when I try to play. I have temporary can solve it by leaving FCPX and opening it again, but after a few minutes, the display window stops again, and it's a pain to have to do every time so I can watch a few minutes of film. Just so you guys know, do it mode multi-cam, incase that has an effect on it. Thank you very much!

    You have the options of display Angles show the value? You are in the editor of the Angle or the project timeline?

  • First Pro CS 6 and Windows 10 - projects do not play in the timeline

    I bit the bullet and upgraded to Windows 7 Professional, Windows 10.  I had heard people say that first Pro CS 6 worked in Windows 10, so I was anxious to make the upgrade, but I was sure that it works ok.

    Boy, I was wrong!

    I can open previously created first Pro CS6 projects, and everything looks good on the timeline.  But the project will not play!  The "play" button on the changes in preview to the "Stop" button, but the current-time indicator does not move forward and the video does not play.  I can rub very well through the timeline.  If I press the "Stop" button, it won't come back on the 'Play' button, as it should.

    I tried to create a new project, import a video file and try to play it, but the same thing happens... it won't play.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks for your quick response. I solved the problem, just before that I received

    your post above...

    I realized that I had no sound at all... no windows sounds, nothing. My Realtek

    High Definition Audio sound card on my motherboard did not work. He has been

    selected as default in Windows playback device, but not sounds were

    to come. I selected another audio device and then switched back to

    the Realtek device and I had sound. Just for fun, I opened a project

    First, and he's now come back normally.

    Now, if only I could get all the 5.1 speakers, it would be

    large. It seems that I currently have audio '3.1' now! Realtek web page is

    not very useful to provide drivers. The configuration program for the

    sound card think it has side speakers, but they make no noise!

    Thanks again.

  • Window Movie Maker will not import a mp3 file get that a C: {file location} .mp3 error could not be imported

    OP: Window Movie Maker will not import an mp3 file. Why?

    I tried to imort a song from my music file which is in mp3 format, but the program won't. She won't tell me why, it just says: "C: {file location} .mp3 cannot be imported."  I imported 2 other songs that are the same exact format. Why is it cant import the file?

    Hello spardigus,

    1 - is the full error you get when you try to import the file?

    Some of the Mp3 files can be compressed in various formats. I suggest that you search information below and check out them if you are able to import the files.

    It might be possible that the file may be corrupted and is not readable by Movie Maker. I suggest that you copy the file to a different location on your computer and you are trying to import.

    Also check the size of the file. If it shows 0 bytes, there are good chances that the file may be damaged.

    I suggest that you try to convert this file to avi format using an Audio Converter. There are several converters which helps you convert the file in the required format. Convert the file and try to import.

    You can use your favorite search engine to find the program that will help convert the files.

    CIA

    Hello

    1. have you ripped music files and synchronize directly on USB?

    2. What is the file format of the files that you ripped?

    3. are you able to play the songs in a different computer?

    This problem normally occurs when the radio does not support a specific file format. If you are able to play the songs to another computer, I you suggest to use third party software to convert .mp3 files and then check with the question.

  • SWF file will not play on the Internet

    I've been everywhere on the internet, find the answer to my problem. I have a site in which I have two Flash animations that I need to play. We're working very well. I bought a model flash, edited, published, no problem. The other, I have a photo gallery template I customized, but it will not play on the internet, not even with the generated html file. Just a big black square appears. Here is a url to the nonworking time:

    www.atlantiswebandgraphics.com/ScottHambergArt.html

    This is the HTML generated by Flash 8. I noted that the publication of Flash 8 settings are set to 'Default' and the other Flash file that works is set to "Flash CS4 Settings." When I add that as a profile with a photo gallery, I get the error messages. I have screenshots of all the parameters in Flash, work and not work below files:

    www.atlantiswebandgraphics.com/images/NotWorkingPublishSettings.jpg
    www.atlantiswebandgraphics.com/images/NotWorkingPublishSettings1.jpg

    It's the working Flash file url: www.atlantiswebandgraphics.com/index2.html

    I could give much too much info, but I think better safe than sorry. And by the way, I'm really new to this (that's why I get models).

    Thank you. I've decided to basically start from scratch on this model. It works now. As you say, must have been the unfinished function.

  • DVD will not play on the computer.

    my computer crashed.  The computer files were all saved, but I can't find any programs.  For example, I can no longer play a dvd.  I have Windows Media Player, but it won't play the dvd from the library movie.  Also, when I go to computer/CDrom, the CDrom is empty.

    Thank you for your help.

    If it's a cd rom it will not play a dvd disc. Have you ever read a dvd on it? Is that what you did re - install Windows following the accident?

    Hi laura234646,

    Did you check if the problem occurs with another drive?

    This problem may be caused by audio\video filters present on the computer.

    Step 1: I suggest that disable you video filters and driver, to do this, follow these steps:

    Director of open windows,

    1. click on Toolsand then click Options.

    2. click on the compatibility tab.

    3. to turn off a filter, clear the check box next to the name of the video filter.

    Now, check if the problem is resolved.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/video-filters-in-Windows-Movie-Maker-frequently-asked-questions

    (See the section, what can I do if I have problems with video in Windows Movie Maker filters?)

    If the problem persists,

    Step 2: Reduce hardware acceleration to check

    1. open display settings by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, on appearance and customization, personalization, and then clicking display settings.

    2. click on display settings, and then click Advanced settings.

    3. click on the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    4. reduce the hardware acceleration slider to zero.

    Hello

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
