Originally captured video from my digital video camera using the capture
video utility in movie maker. When I viewed the captured video, the last
minute or two of the video was missing. However, when I view the wmv file
it created using media player, the entire video is there. Tried deleting
the clip from the collection and reimported it. Each time, same problem -
last minutes missing. Tried importing both with and without the create
clips box checked - no difference. When I view the properties of the clip it
tells me the duration is 50:18.37 and the size 126.21MB. When I view the
properties of the wmv file itself, it also says the duration is 50:18 but
the size reported by windows is 129,235KB.. not sure why the size is
differnt but the duration is the same or how that's possible, but the
missing 3MB could account for the missing video. Question is does anyone
have any idea why is it doing this and how can I get the entire video
imported?

I'm not sure what's going on with your missing time, but as for the
difference between file sizes, that's easy enough to explain. A Kilobyte is
1024 bytes (2^10), and a Megabyte is 1024 KB. Therefore, 129,235KB divided
by 1,024 equals 126.2060546875 MB.

I hope that helps a little, even if it doesn't answer your main problem.
