Movie Make and Sonic MyDVD

[Guest]

I have Windows Movie Maker. I made a video on it to send to some newly
adopted family members. It did not have the option of burning to DVD. I
searched and found out I had to have third party software to do that. So I
bought Sonic MyDVD Studio Deluxe. According to Microsoft: "First, use
Windows Movie Maker 2 to create your home movie. Once you're done, you can
use a third-party program such as MyDVD to burn a DVD."

That's why I bought MyDVD. I also just upgraded Movie Maker to version 2.1

So... the problem... I go into MyDVD and do the following:

1. Create or Modify a DVD-Video Project. (click on that)

2. Get Movies (click on that)

3. I find the movie I made (.mswmm file) and click on it.

4. A window pops up in MyDVD and says, "One or more files could not be
imported. MyDVD does not support this file type."

ARG!!! I just spent 18 hours downloading a Microsoft service pack so that I
could upgrade Movie Maker. I just spent $139 on the best MyDVD version and a
book on how to use it. Can anyone help me?????

You're OK... but you need to save the movie in Movie Maker and give the
DV-AVI or WMV file to MyDVD. It can't use the project file (MSWMM).

It took a minute to figure out how do to that... but I did figure it out...
and it worked! I've now burned my first DVD and watched it to make sure it
did it. It looks great! Thank you VERY much for you help!
