Re: Cannot Burn Movie to DVD



John

I tried to save the project again, but this time I watched the memory usuage
during the saving. I saw the peak (~770K) was no where near the limit
number (~1.5G). I also saw that once the movie was 55% complete (about 1
hour after I started) the CPU Usage went to zero. I left it alone for
another 2 hours and it did not move from that point. Anything I can check to
see why my movies are not saving as a DV-AVI file?

Thanks for the information. Will have to go through it and do the
checks once I am in front of my desktop at home.

But until then, I have another question related to your response. I
don't have the NERO Express that you detail below and so I may have
to buy some software to be able to burn the movie I created in
Windows Movie Maker to a DVD. Can you provide me with some possible
software recommendations that is very compitable with Windows Movie
Maker so that it would be very minimal to no configuration I would
have to do, but simple "plug n play".
==========================
All the DVD Authoring software I've
tried has a learning curve...I suspect
you'll have to spend some time reading
the manual and experimenting.

Personally, I have had success with
InterVideo WinDVD Creator, and
also ProShow Gold. There are many
DVD authoring programs and all I
can say is pick one and give it a try.
