Re: Video sticking

OK so just so I'm clear working with mpeg 2 files and WMM when you save the
movie as a DVI it will likely stick. As you said it doesn't do it when saved
as a .wmv just as a DVI file.

Maybe you got lucky somehow and the MPEG2 file worked at least partially.

I have checked the file again and consulted the manual. The booklet
definately says is mpeg 2 but inspecting the file just says its a windows
media file and I can't see the extension. Hang fire and I will turn
extensions on

If your using WMM 2.1 then I am still trying to understand how you got
an
MPEG2 file to work in the first place since MPEG2 is not compatible
with
Movie Maker.
MPEG1 files cause strange effects as they occasionally work but more
often
than not cause different problems at different stages of the project,
such
as the one your describing, so are you sure they are not MPEG1 files?
Either way try converting them to WMV and the problem will likely go
away.

OK no issues when I save the file as a Broadband 512kbps file instead
of
DV-AVI. I guess the transfer of one file format to another is related
to
the
problem but can someone explain why?

I have searched this forum but can't find a similar issue.

I saved my video from my Sony SRI to the hard drive of my PC as mpeg
2
files
and subsequently created a movie. Everything is fien at this stage
and
the
preview looks good. Then when I render the file as a DV AVI file for
playback
on my PC the final movie sticks every so often ruining the show. The
audi
seems fine but every few seconds the video sticks makes the movie
suck.

Can anyone help?

I plan to check the following things:

Codecs - I will experiment switching some off and on to see if that
makes
a
difference
File format - I will try saving the file as a different format
rather
than
mpeg to avi
