help! movie has "rainbow" negative effect

[ACE]

This often happens to me. Movie is succesfully made movie (usually out of
"MVI" video clips from my canon digital camera). It plays in the preview pane
and looks great. In any format I choose to save the movie in it looks
horrible - negative colors and unusable!

Please help me to stop this from happening.

Thank you in advance!!

==========================
MVI or AVI?

It may be worth a try to open Movie Maker go to...Tools /
Options / Compatibility tab...and uncheck all the filters / OK.

And...you may need to update your video driver.

Thanks John,

It's .WMV

I don't know what format this is. But it seems to be all my pc will produce
these days - or at least all I get from movie maker.

WMV from movie maker, but what about the file from the camera? Cameras
often produce files which are incompatible with movie maker, such as mjpeg,
mov. You need to covert these to wmv before using them. Some apps here will
do it

==================================================
When you posted...MVI you meant .WMV? I have no idea what
..MVI is...my Canon produces .AVI movie files.

What about unchecking the filters and updating your video driver?

We cannot help you much if we are not informed as to what is being done.
