Re: Saving Movie Maker issues

I am using a lot of pictures with 8 - 10 video clips of varying
lengths...nothing more than 25 seconds. I save it - it takes 15 minutes or so
- and then go to watch it using either Nero or WMP and there will be missing
pictures or it will just go black and stay that way for the rest of the
movie. Audio seems not to be a problem. I just figured it was a lack or
system resources because as I was getting to then end and trying to put more
video into it it would crash quite frequently so I had to save often. It also
doesn't move as smoothly as it did when I was just beginning.

Like I said, I did convert it to pocket PC size and it worked, but only
after taking out almost all effects and lost a LOT in quality. (you can
barely make out who is who when you put it to full screen.

My goal is to be able to make a DVD of the full project to send to each
extention of my family. Please tell me I will be able to do this!!!
Thanks for you quick response by the way.
