Windows Video Maker question

• Windows Movie Maker Questions

  I just started to use Windows Movie Maker to make a DVD of worship with songs and lyrics for my study of the bible among the teenage group. I wanted to know:

  How to change the background on the home page before you burn the DVD?

  How can you fix the chapters so there is only one chapter for each song?

  How can I make several song-movies to be burned in total on one disc?

  Can I change the font color in the film?

  If I start a new project, you can several projects record together on one disc?

  Thank you! :)

  I'll try to answer some of your questions:

  Q - How fix chapters so there is only one chapter for each song?
  ====================================================
  Publish (save each song as an individual). Film WMV in Movie Maker.
  Save them to a folder on your hard drive. Then import the collection
  . In DVD Maker WMV video files and each of them becomes a scene
  (Chapter) on the DVD (you can have up to 18 scenes).
  ====================================================
  Q-if I start a new project, you can several projects record together on one disc?
  ====================================================
  A you must add all files DVD Maker before burning the DVD-video...

• Some video clips to cut or freeze altogether when editing in Windows Movie Maker.

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  • I imported a few video clips for Windows Video Maker and when I played against them on the timeline, they played very well, but when I started working on a project and added the clip on the timeline the clip played to halfway through and then the clip is cut off from himself and played the tree in this way the rest of the clip or just froze altogether but the timer continued. At first, I thought, there might be something wrong with the clip so I imported another copy of the clip, but he kept repeating the same problem with all versions of the clip that I imported. It is not the first time, it does, Windows Movie Maker has done this before with other video clips of mine.

  This is usually due to incompatible source files.

  Might be worth trying to convert your videos to
  format .wmv before import into Movie Maker.

  The following freeware can convert:

• Windows Movie Maker-how do I change the details of the clip

  Windows Movie Maker question

  I created a video clip in Windows Movie Maker, but I need to hide some of the numbers displayed in the clip.  For example, to place a black box on a small part of the clip to hide certain details.  How can I do this?

  If the video has been created from photos yet...
  It would be easier to edit the photos before
  import.

  If your project has been created from video clips...
  The task you describe requires an overlay.

Is it possible to get the videographer can read this type of file or change the file type to be. WMV or something WVM supports?

  =========================================
  VOB are the video files to a DVD-video... (they have all of them).

  First... I suggest you copy the VOB files to a folder on your
  hard drive. (If you cannot copy the VOB files... successfully the)
  DVD may have copy protection)

  If you are under Vista Home Premium or Ultimate... try to import
  VOB in Movie Maker files because they are... If this does not work... rename
  they .mpg and try again...

  If it still fails, you will need to convert the files to WMV format.
  There are many converters available on the net... the following
  Freeware is just an example:

  Format Factory
  http://www.pcfreetime.com/
  (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup250.zip
  (FWIW... installation..., you might want to

  First... 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 VOB files on the main screen...

  Select "all to WMV" / OK...

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

  That should do it...

• Windows Movie Maker - sound only, no video is displayed

  Using the Director to download my video noise is get recorded. Black screen is displayed on the video section. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I checked the help on the program and measures diplay window all correctly until I try to capture the segment, then no video.

  Whenever you get a black screen for video and audio played correctly, this means that you do not have the right video codec installed on your computer. To solve this problem, the simplest method is to install an application called MediaInfo on your computer, so that you can analyze the video file and see which codec you need to install. This tutorial on sound with no picture in Windows Media Player mentions the problem, that is the question even if it occurs in Windows Movie Maker or Windows Media Player.

• 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

• Sync audio/video Windows Movie Maker problem

  When you use Windows Movie Maker 5.1 to capture video from my Panasonic PV-GS39 DV camera, audio is 15 seconds ahead of the video.  Anyone know what is the cause or how to fix it?  No other programs are running at the time of the capture.

  Windows Movie Maker 5.1
  Windows XP Service Pack 3

  It is difficult to say why Windows Movie Maker would be to have this problem, but my recommendation would be to eliminate it from the video capture process. There is an excellent free program called WinDV you can use to capture video on your computer, then you can change using Windows Movie Maker, once the capture is complete. Video capture questions can be exasperating. Along with other instructions of troubleshooting, I explain why you might want to use WinDV in a tutorial on video troubleshooting.

• Video clip with file extension 3gpp converted to wmv but no audio in Windows Movie Maker

  I have a video clip taken from a cell phone with file extension 3gpp.  I converted it to a wmv file using software downloaded using an XP operating system.

  Thank you for your interest and your answer to my question.  I was actually able to do something with it that I managed to import a file to convert 3gpp in Windows Movie Maker.  Here's what I did as others who may have the same problem currently or in the future, try:

  Initially, I converted a file video in a .wmv file 3gpp and tried to import the Windows Movie Maker.  The video is imported, but is not the audio.  I converted the same file video 3gpp in one file .avi and it imported into the Windows Movie Maker project that I did and it worked! The .avi video and audio imported and played without any problems.  Thanks again for your response.

• Windows Movie Maker plays audio only, from video files downloaded

  (I see other, similar types of questions about my problem, but none that fits 'exactly'.  So here we are...)  Recently, I used the Roxio VHS to DVD software to capture movies at home at my computer.  Files saved as .mpg files.

  When I tried to use Windows Movie Maker to edit some clips at all, I couldn't see any video (only the audio was playing).

  I used the 'compatibility', put options different filters turned off. but this does not work either.

  What should I do to solve my problem (and subsequently, to play these videos)?
