Windows Movie Maker - why are my blurry pictures?

I'm doing a movie in Windows Movie Maker and all the photos that I bring, which are perfectly clear, eventually blur in the film.  Is anyone know why and what can I do?

Hello jscharmann,

Thanks for choosing Microsoft answers Forum!

I would check my transitions and effects because one of the consequences is that you can image blur.

  • Windows Movie Maker-legends are incomplete when published in the final movie

    My captions are incomplete when published in the final movie... :(

    Hello everyone.

    I use Windows Movie Maker to create a photo slideshow set to music. In addition, each photo has a caption.

    Here's my problem:

    Some photo captions are messy when I publish the movie. For example, "TCS 1999" shows as "SDC 199" in the published version, even if "SDC 2000" remains the same in the published version. " Not every picture is affected, but it is irritating.

    I would appreciate anyone's insight into this matter.

    Thank you! :)

  • Windows Movie Maker plays sound but no picture for the Sims 2 movies after installing the codec vp6vfw.dll - how to fix Movie Maker?

    Sims 2 was not properly installing its codec vp6vfw.dll film so I copy and pasted from Sims 1 CD in my windows > System 32.  Now when I play the Sims 2 game I can make movies.  They appear in Windows Media Player very well.  But they do not visually show in Windows Movie Maker.  I get sound.  How can I fix Windows Movie Maker to display my Sims 2 movies?

    I found the answer.  Windows Movie Maker is no longer supported.  The new version is Windows Live Movie Maker, and it has all the appropriate codecs.  Download that and you're good!

    WMM is trash but it can not be uninstalled from the PC.  Just ignore it and use WLMM.
  • Discussion questions with rebel eos of cannon during the action of street shootings? Why are my blurry pictures?

    In situations on a tripod or in most other situations my camera and objectives seem to focus well. In a stable situation where the subject does not have many, I simply turn the wheel around the focal point I want the camera to focus on my photos are usually good, but I found that I love street photography and capture people who do things. Sometimes, they are moving toward or away from me. .. I use a wide-angle F2.8 and generally have no worries to keep larger than the focal length shutter speed... I keep the camera autofocus and AWB... So why are both my photos blurry... I don't have time to every shot to lift the unit and turn the wheel to emphasize a particular point if I usually leave a central development... What should I do to get my shots in short without looking through the viewfinder with each stroke?

    Note that the update "AI Servo" difference in mode of development of "One Shot" in terms of what it does when you press the shutter button.

    In "One Shot" mode, the device uses "Focus priority".  This means that the camera will NOT take a hit if the lens is in auto-focus mode until it can confirm that he was able to focus on the selected AF point (or on a Focus point if you let point AF Auto selection) in brief: realize the development is more important than shooting at the precise moment when you press the button.  That's why "focus priority".

    In "AI Servo" mode, the device uses "release priority".  This means that when you press the shutter button completely, the device will take the shot immediately and it will do so if he had time to reach the focus... or not.    In short: capture the shot at the precise moment when you press the shutter button is more important to achieve focus.   That's why "release priority".

    If you quickly press the shutter button to take a picture, the camera will shoot first and development worry later.  You half - press the shutter to allow the device to reach to the point before you fully - press the key.

  • Why are my blurry pictures?

    A time to return my camera was not made well autofocusing. I sent it in for repair. I have not used much lately. I also have some flash photos of my granddaughter last weekend and they are not to the point. What would be the most likely cause of them not being is not in focus. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Check that the AF / MF switch on the lens is set to AF. I've been known to switch to MF while installing a lens every so often.  Also according to the objective, some have remote control switches and again I she had set out for many & tried something close to forget to change the position of the switch.

    How to convert Windows Movie Maker files in a Mac compatible file?
    Windows Movie Maker files are the format of Windows Movie Maker project. The files say things to Windows Movie Maker on your video editing project like video clips are used, which audio files you have imported, go to what transitions between clips, and whose effects are used. These files are essentially readable only in Windows Movie Maker and certainly doesn't work on a Mac. Two options to save a video file in Movie Maker are DV - AVI or WMV. To create a Mac compatible video file, open the file in Windows Movie Maker in Windows Movie Maker, save the movie to the highest quality WMV or preferably as a DV - AVI file format. Import the AVI or WMV file ended up in iMovie or another Mac video editing application.

  • Windows Movie Maker-uploaded photo files are blurry

    I do a short presentation on my community service I've done. It is a minute and a half, but ALL my slides come out blurry.  I don't know if I should just make them all about powerpoint, but I'm not sure if I can keep the music out there. Any advice?

    MY HUMBLE OPINION... Photo Story 3 is a better application for video
    Slide shows if you use only still shots and the music.

    PhotoStory 3 for Windows
    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=92755126-A008-49B3-b3f4-6f33852af9c1
    (works on XP, Vista and Win7)

    Now... to answer your question...

    The display resolution is reduced when we look at
    the Timeline/Storyboard...this will not affect your
    completed project (especially noticeable seen)
    full screen). If you view the item by selecting it in the
    Part of collections that better, he should look like.

    If your (registered) publication WMV video files are not the
    resolution you expected... you may need to use a Custom
    Profile:

    Personally, I find the following .wmv profile to be
    useful when recording movies.

    Download from the following site...

    Right click / Save target as... drop in the following Vista folder:
    C:\Program Movie Maker\Shared\Profiles
    (you will need to create the profiles folder, if it is not there)
    Profiles customized for Win XP, Movie Maker will work with
    Vista Movie Maker 6.

    Publish (save) by using a custom profile.

  • Why my films are released in the form of thin and green lines when working in Windows Movie Maker?

    When I change the video, everything seems fine. I can see the video, I can modify it. But when I publish it, it becomes a black screen with a thin, green line oriented horizontally or vertically, that it seems to vary.

    I tried redownloading Windows Movie Maker (the link is on my Hotmail page) and it did not help. It's actually when the line is vertical.

    The strange thing is the titles on video and audio actually appear very well. But I don't think it's my camera because the video plays very well before I publish it. So what the hell is happening?

    I use a Flip camcorder if that helps.

    Here's a video showing the problem. You can hear the sound and see the title wipe across the screen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guL_l-YOz8E

    Not sure if I have a few other Codec here or not, but I think I could.

    In any case, I realized the problem WITH WMM, I went and tried to save other ways and go with more parameters: DV - AVI (PAL) works!

    I'm just looking to add the opening titles to the pieces of film of aprox 3 Germans, but everytime I try and save files for uploading to Youtube, then fail shortly after a minute. The sound and picture freeze while the counter continues until the end of the file.
