When you say the same things happen or it doesn't save at all. What happens
when it doesn't save? Do you get an error message?
There are no other programs I know of that can read in the MovieMaker
project format. However there are programs that can read in WMV and DV-AVI
files and create DVD's and Video CD's. Do you want to do that or just copy
the WMV file to a CD? There's a bunch of information about this on
PapaJohn's website under CD Burning... and DVD Software see
http://www.papajohn.org
If you do want to create a DV-AVI file you can do that by going to Other
settings: on the Movie Setting page within the Save Movie Wizard and
selecting DV-AVI from the list. (If Other settings: isn't visible then click
on Show more choices...). It sounds like you may have already tried this
though. Did you have enough free hard space for the DV-AVI file? DV-AVI
files tend to be much larger than WMV files so they do require a lot more
hard disc space.
What speed processor do you have on your machine? Do you happen to have a 2
processor machine?
Sorry if I have more questions then answers
Regards
Dean Rowe
