MovieMaker 2.1??

M

Mookie

Hello,

I've been having a problem with MovieMaker - the version installed on my
machine is 2.0.3312.0 even though I've had SP2 installed for a while and
regularly do the updates.

MM opens fine, but I generally get an error when attempting to import video.
Before you tell me some files won't open... I realize that. If I just move
the error message off of the screen, I can continue to use MovieMaker with
some success. It WILL NOT create clips anymore.

When I import the video, I check the box at the bottom of the dialog box to
have clips created automatically. When the single clip shows up in the
window in MM, I right-click and again tell it to create clips. It reports 5
minites left at 2% finished, graduates to 14 minutes left at 26%, then
finished rather quickly without creating any clips.

I can't figure out what the problem with the program is. Don't have an idea
why I haven't been bumped up to 2.1. Can't uderstand why the error allows me
to continue to use the program to some degree.

One thing I HAVE noticed - the MovieMaker error is ALWAYS followed by a
'fault bucket' entry in the event log. Each entry is followed by a different
number.

I've searched for the file "divxaf.ax" as suggested on Papa John's site, but
it doesn't exist on my system. I reduced hardware acceleration and it seems
to stop the errors as soon as I begin to use MM, but creating clips is still
a thing of the past for me.

If anyone could offer some help, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!

Mike
