1- Does anyone know how many pictures you can use in one Movie before it
crashes? Its happened to me before.
2- Does anyone know how I can prevent someone from copying the Movie from a
DVD once I give it out? I plan on donating the proceeds to charity.
3- I am currently making a Movie for a graduation class and would love to
use some of the music the kids like but Movie Mker will not accept the files.
Any ideas?

============================
The program has no set image limit but
your system resources may be taxed when
creating large projects.

One possible work around would be to
create several smaller projects / save
them as movies / re-import the movies /
drag them to the timeline and do the
final save. .

There is no way to guarantee that your
DVD cannot be copied.

Since you're planning to sell the finished
product you may want to be careful about
using copyrighted materials.

Anyway...have a look at the following articles:

Thanks for your reply John. We decided that it would be a nice gesture to
give the DVDs to all of the graduating students at no cost. Thanks for all
of your expert resources. You are a valuable member of this community. :-)
