Default Saving final Movie Clip


Morning

I have problem saving amovie after creating and editing all relevant clips -
i receive a message claiming that it can not save the movie to the specified
location - and i need to verify the original files are still available and
that the saving location is available - and then try again!

I have done this on numerous occassions and all is fine with the original
files, with the original location so i am at a loss to understand why it will
not save!

Please help as my head hurts!

Cheers

Rhys Morgan

This can often happen if you ave used files which MM does't like, such as
mp3, mpeg or jpeg. convert them to wav, dv-avi and bitmap

Hi Guys

THanks for the info, have tried the PAPA JOHN site but nothing seems to
work, i have no problem on another pc which is identical in every aspect (RIS
images are very handy) but that machine is having no problem processing the
vdeo clips!!

Will try what you have suggested Graham, thanks again.

PAPA JOHN - i have read through most of your informaiton regarding this, and
re-regsitered all *.dll files you suggest but have the same problem - i am
only trying to combine 4 15 second clips so there should be no real memory
issue - can MM be affected by lack of admin rights? not relating to the
location though, but does an admin have additional permssions to create such
files or is MM a basic progrma that works on all machines?!

Cheers Guys

Rhys

I'd expect permissions issues to show up with different symptoms.

Sorry about this. In totally the wrong place but I can see nowhere in the
home page where I am able to ask my questions.
1. How should I do this
2 Ref..Loss of Clips:

I am getting pretty desperate at not being able to recal many hours of hard
work in WMM.

All my clips were saved and remain in the Project File. When I try to OPEN a
little window pops up, checks Clips and opens the clip.. Timeline shivers but
no pictures appear?? I am getting very, very disappointed with WMM, a
programme I have been looking forward to using for a very long time. Could
someone out there PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO GET MY CLIPS BACK…….Many thanks D
I do apologise for entering this in the wrong place.

What type of source files are they? DV-AVI that you captured from a
camcorder, AVI downloaded from the internet, MPEG-2 or MPG files, or
others??

Hi PapaJohn,
Thanks for a little light into solving the Big problem, I am greener than
you could possibly imagine at this!!My files were directly downloaded into
WMM from my camcorder, so I guess they might be DV-AVI? Perhaps you could let
me know how I can chack this?
I am hoping your books, which I ahve been waiting for for over a week, will
help with many of the problem i, as a greenry, will encounter with WMM. I
have to say these problems certainly do not help the establishment of WMM top
my friends.
