It sounds like the file is not joined properly according to the player -
running it through any decent MPEG editor should fix up the clip. =\
(The MPEG parser in Vista is Stricter so will be more likely to reject
questionable files.)

You're right. It is an MPG file (they have three different cameras in
there)
and it was put together by PixelA, the Sony software for the Sony camera
they
are using for this film.
Whatever created it, however, doesn't seem to matter at all with the XP
computers at work. They all can play that MPG file with whatever version
of
Windows Media Player that they have. It's this one I'm on right now, my
Vista Home Premium one. It just won't play properly on Windows Media
player
version 11.0.6001.
No problems running on the MPG on QuickTime on the Vista machine or any of
the XP machines. That's why I'm stumped.

I created an MPG on a Windows XP PC using Windows movie maker and==============================

of us has a DVD burner.
I brought the flash stick home and transferred the MPG file over to
my Vista Home Premium PC and have had no luck viewing the movie. So
then I burned a CD with the MPG on it, transferred it to the Vista PC
and the movie stiil doesn't work right.
What essentially happens is that the movie video stops at a certain
point but the sound continues. QuickTime, however, shows me the
whole movie, video and all, on the Vista PC. So I know the file is
there and runs. I also tried some video producer software, on which
I could see the MPG, but it wouldn't burn the whole movie.
The MPG in question is 529 MG, so it's not huge. Why am I having this
problem?
By the way, I had one heck of a time getting to use this discussion
group. What's with the Vista Discussion Group website? Weird.
Thanks!
Something is amiss in this info because
Windows Movie Maker does not / cannot
save a movie clip in the .mpg format.
Look at the file name of your video and
tell us the extension...
.wmv? .avi? .mswmm?
