Movie Maker

1- Does anyone know how many pictures you can use in one Movie before it
crashes? Its happened to me before.
2- Does anyone know how I can prevent someone from copying the Movie from a
DVD once I give it out? I plan on donating the proceeds to charity.
3- I am currently making a Movie for a graduation class and would love to
use some of the music the kids like but Movie Mker will not accept the files.
Any ideas?

============================
The program has no set image limit but
your system resources may be taxed when
creating large projects.

One possible work around would be to
create several smaller projects / save
them as movies / re-import the movies /
drag them to the timeline and do the
final save. .

2- Does anyone know how I can prevent someone from copying the Movie
from a DVD once I give it out? I plan on donating the proceeds to
charity.

============================
There is no way to guarantee that your
DVD cannot be copied.

3- I am currently making a Movie for a graduation class and

would love to use some of the music the kids like but Movie Mker will
not accept the files. Any ideas?

============================
Since you're planning to sell the finished
product you may want to be careful about
using copyrighted materials.

Anyway...have a look at the following articles:

Thanks for your reply John. We decided that it would be a nice gesture to
give the DVDs to all of the graduating students at no cost. Thanks for all
of your expert resources. You are a valuable member of this community.
