Hi There,
Great Minds and all that...I tried the same route some time
back...unfortunately the codecs are time limited as well as the program
itself. I think the upgrade to the codecs was something like US$15.99. I
ended up by WinDVD5 Platinum in the end and very pleased with it as well.
I have written a program that removes the problem while you use
MovieMaker its called Rename Codecs and its available from my website...in
fact I have only today made available the latest version (1.3) It also has a
little option that helps get rid of redundant files...that feature is not
related to the codec issue though. For the codec problem, you rename the
offending codec while you use Movie Maker and then restore the names
afterwards. The number of downloads of this utility have increased sharply
this last week....which is why I did a bit of an improvement job on the
program
Best Wishes.....John Kelly
