Hello. Has anyone else had problems playing their movies
back on their DVD players/recorders? Do I have to turn
off the DLA feature to the CD-RW drive on my computer
before I record to the CD?
I have an uncountable number of hours in this project and
now it's sort of worthless because it can't be viewed.
Thanks much.

=============================
You are using a CD? And you wish to
play it in a DVD player? This means
you must create a VCD. (and your DVD
player must be compatible with VCDs).
(this assumes you do not have a DVD
burner...then you might create a DVD).
First you would save your Movie Maker
project to a folder on your hard drive as
a movie...
To save as a .wmv movie file...
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next / Next.
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...
To save as an .avi movie file...
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Show More Choices /
Other Settings /
Open the drop window and choose...DV-AVI /
Next /
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...
Next...you need to import the completed
..wmv or .avi movie file into a software
program that will create a VCD. Most
DVD players will play a VCD...check
the manual for your DVD player for
compatibility. A VCD is a Video Disk
created on a CD instead of a DVD.
I've had success with a program called
'InterVideo WinDVD Creator'...there are
many others...'NeroVision Express'...is
another example. The main thing is the
program must be able to create a VCD
from a .wmv or .avi video file.
