Lunja Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 (edited) Check what format the movie is being imported as. If it's being imported as an image file then movie maker could be giving each frame 10seconds or so, making the timeline huge. Something like that happened to me in final cut pro. Is it rendering as video? If it's rendering as animation that could be it... Edited January 30, 2005 by Lunja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunja Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Dunno - I've never used movie maker :( It's only a theory - if the pc is taking the footage as frame-by-frame pictures, and giving each an amount of thime on the timeline, then that'd explain it...

KoxXy Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 It used to take me ages to get mine done in movie maker and also it had so many problems such is you can edit and then it will stop responding and then close down and you lose all that work you've just done. Easy sollution look into a new program. I use Pinnacle Studio 9 Its a very good program you can pic up slimfast versions of it but as it is onli a light weight version you lost out on some of the effects and editing things such as slow mo and some of the fades. I was in the process of making a vid on it and it was great, even on the slimfast version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bondy Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Try making a new little vid with a couple of clips and try save it, see if that saves fine or wheter its just that file with it all on that messes up :D just a thought as you may have to start again :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
