Saving formats.

[Todd Betlem]

I have windows XP Home, Movie Maker version 2.0. I am
not finding many people that can play movies published to
CD's unless the user is Windows XP and version 9.0 of
media player.

I can not find a "save as" file type for MPEG1 or MPEG2
to make it easier for a wider audience to be able to
review movies I produce. Do I need to purchase
additional software?

Thank you.

MM does not output MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 formats. XP Home does not come with an
MPEG-2 encoder or decoder. You can output as DV-AVI from MM and use 3rd
party software to encode it to MPEG-2.
