• noise problem Windows movie maker 2.6 when recording in dv - avi format

  I installed the filmmaker windows 2.6 on windows 7 Home premium. Everything works fine. When I try to record the final film in DV - AVI format, I get 5-7 seconds of noise very high height introduced where ever there is a change of clip. IE if I have 10 different clips in my film, I get this noise at 10 different locations in my last recorded movie. These are the places where begins a new clip. There is no such noise present when I play the project in movie maker is not present in the original source file (which is an avi file).

  Interestingly, when I save the movie in any format as DV - AVI, (IE high video quality, local playback or any wmv file) there is no such noise introduced in the final movie. I used the same clips to make the final movie in windows xp using movie maker 2.1 and there was no question also in the recorded final DV - AVI movie.

  So the problem seems to be only on movie maker 2.6 on windows 7, when recording in DV - AVI format (all other formats of work correctly). Clips of same worked well on movie maker 2.1 on windows XP, when recording in DV - AVI format.

  I suspect that the video filters (in tools-> options) could be the reason. I checked and all active video filters are those in C/windows/SYSWOW64 directory, so there is no non-microsoft video filter.

  Pls help as windows live movie maker (installed on windows 7) all blocks left and right and is basically useless because it can't record any movie to the end. Director of Windows 2.1 was the best choice, but it cannot be installed on windows 7. I can download the video to show what kind of flicker noise is there at the beginning of each clip. It is a volume high, shrill noise as if two things are rubbing against each other.

• 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.

  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

  Well, I was very happy when the program doesn't stop after following your advice and unchecking above named filter. But then, after it scans the file (which is a progress!), he says he cannot continue because one or more of the files contains a codec that is not supported by AutoMovie. I don't even know what a codec IS. I know who was Kojak, and I know what is Kotex, but what the heck is a codec and how do I get one?

  Thank you!

  Maybe the following article offers some ideas:

• Windows Movie Maker stops working after importing video MP4

  I am running Movie Maker version 6 and Windows Vista Home Premium. I imported my videos my camcorder Flip Ultra HD from Sony MP4. The clips will play in preview pane and I can edit in the timeline or storyboard table. However, after about 5 minutes of use Moviemaker stops working for no apparent reason. (Moviemaker stopped job searching a solution), is never resolved. It also stops working if I try to see my edited video. I downloaded Moviemaker Live, but it has the same problem.

  Hello kekesala,

  Here is the link which contains the steps to perform a clean boot in Windows Vista and Windows 7:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  The link below includes a list of the types of supported files which can be imported into Windows Movie Maker.  You can try to convert the MP4 video to a Windows Movie Maker video file type supported and then try to create the project, or the film.

  Importing files into Windows Movie Maker: frequently asked questions

  If the problem persists when you try to create a new project with Windows Movie Maker and a video file type supported, try to run the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files and then check the issue. To do this, please see the link below:

• Windows Movie maker can publish no film because of "missing" files

  When I publish the movie says he can't because the files are missing. Howere there are no files with the Red X that would indicate a file is missing. All files seem to be taken into account. Any suggestions on how to find the file Windows Movie Maker believes Miss? \

  It's very frustrating, as is the level of «support "of Microsoft.»

• A film recorded in windows movie maker opens not when-e-by post

  My other movies a year ago, opened when they were sent, no problem. So I sent one that makes home and you could open when sent by electronic mail and got the same mess... The project file is in use by another program. I can't figure this out for nothing! All movies are in Linda/documents and recorded in Movie Maker

  What is happening with all the movies attached sent by e-mail (I know that's the same films that worked before) or only those sent to a certain person?  Try to send one to yourself and see if you can open and view.  If so, it may be a problem with the recipient.  Make sure that they close all the open files or active in their program, and then try again.
