Play back

[Guest]

Hello, After saving a movie with 218 photos, transitions, effects and audio,
it doesn't play back in it's entirety. The pictures stop progressing after
picture 200, but the sound continues. I tried saving it numerous times and
opening it with different media players and still it stops are picture 200.
Is there a limit to the number of pictures that can be used? My hard drives
are NTFS and I have plenty of disc space available (over 280GB).

There is no "real" limit, but there does come a time when MM
can't do any more ... it varies from project to project,
though ... so to me, it says it's more about system memory,
processor speed, etc than the software itself ... but that
could be limited, too.

My suggestion is to make it 2 projects ... say pictures
1-100 and then 101-218. Combine the 2 "finished" video
files into one project with a transition between them and
you should be okay.
