I've been trying to get Movie Maker to work properly, but am having a heck of
a time with it. The main problem I'm having is that often, when I go to drag
transitions down in-between clips, the entire utility simply goes away--POOF!
The other problem I'm having is a little more complicated. I have two film
clips that I've uploaded from my DV camera to my computer, using Win Movie
Maker. Both files are about 15 minutes long, and are accessible on my
computer through WMM. I imported each of them in turn, and cut them up into
clips of various lengths, which I renamed and saved; each longer clip has
been cut into maybe 15 short clips. I can see these clips in the folder when
I go to OPEN-->VIEW ALL FILES, but *not* when I try to just view the WMM
files; they won't show up. When I select them in the OPEN menu and try to
open them in WMM, I get an error message saying that WMM doesn't support
those types of files! But when I go to the folder and view the properties of
each file, they are described as being WMM files!
All I want to be able to do is to open up these 30 files and arrange them as
desired in the storyboard, insert transitions, and make a movie with them.
Any advice as to how to get the WMM utility to do what it's supposed to would
be greatly appreciated. If it makes any difference, my machine is a HP
Pavilion running WinXP. Thanks in advance!
