The Combination Photo story 3 to moviemaker

[Guest]

I have placed my short Photostories into window moviemaker. Three of my
photostories had the music incorporated. One did not. I decided to add the
music in movie maker. I use Neuro to burn my projects to a DVD. The problem
that I am currently having is when I play what I burned there are episodes
where the presentation skips,seems to want to stall. One of my home DVD
refused to play it. Other units seem to have little more skips while yet
another skips less. This occurs with all the short stories that were made
with windows movie maker. All the projects play well on the computer. I have
tried to burn the projects using photostory 2 but got frustrtated and went to
moviemaker instead. There has to be a very simple explanation to this
dilemma. I really want to work my projects through the movie maker.Can some
genie other help me out

Sounds more like a problem with the encoding/authoring/burning or a disc
compatibility problem.
Change makes of disc, buy a good one like verbatim/ritek/taiyo yuden.
Check the settings used for the encoding, some players struggle with high
bitrates.
Check you dvd player at www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers for compatiblity.

Did the WMV from PhotoStory play well in your media player?
I ask because another possibility is the resolution coming out of PS3.
Sometimes if you render in a higher resolution it causes skipping problems
in WMM and Nero.

How does one check the settings for the encoding. Sony disc is what I used
for the first time.I have always used the verbatim.

I have not tried to play them on the media player. How does one render a
higher resolution in PS3?

Well try playing the WMV in your Media Player to see the results.
As far as the settings for PS3 on the last screen before the program begins
rendering ("Save Your Story") there is a [SETTINGS] button. Click that and
see what Profile is being used. In my experience, and the facts will vary
depending on the computer resources etc..., using a 1024x768 profile tends
to give you the jumpy result you are describing.
