I am stuck!

[SUZAN TAYLOR]

not new to movie maker, only new to Vista! I got my project finished, added
transitions, added the title and saved the project. Went to play it back and
it won't play! So, I closed it down, restarted and opened the project. It
appeared on the timeline and I went to play it and the player won't work. I
tried playing some of the clips from my imported files and it works. Then I
try the time line and nothing. The little marker at the bottom of the preview
screen that tells how far into it you are isn't at the beginning, it is
about a 1/4" in and the screen is black. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

ok...never mind the last part about the slide bar. I can move it manually but
it is still stuck. I put it in the middle and hit play...still nothing!

I am having the exact same problem. Has anyone offered a solution yet?

 

[SUZAN TAYLOR]

nobody has offered anything! I went back in and redid the video and it works
now. I had added a lot of transitions and that's when it stuck. I left the
transitions out this time and it was ok....seems pointless if you can't use
the trans or effects...

I'm having a similar problem. Using movie maker on a Vista Home Premium, once
I add about 15 clips with transitions, the preview storyboard won't work
anymore, until you delete some clips or transitions..
I went to the HELP button, went to the web and read that the solution to
this problem is "delete one or more clips or transitions"?! and I'm
struggling to believe that's all Microsoft will tell me. I'm sure there is a
solution but I can't find it, can somebody help me, please?
