Yeah,

Sonic plug-ins appear to be installed on hard drive, but not being picked up
in WMM. I guess I could try to edit the registry manually as suggested by the
topic:

My real problem is that when I am trying to save a 2 hour video to high
quality format, so that I can use a different bit of software to make the DVD
conversion, I keep getting the 'sorry experienced a problem - have to close
message' about 5 - 10 minutes in. This never happened when I was using XP Pro
(non-MCE) on the same PC with same hardware.

So instead of having to completely re-edit the film using a different piece
of software, I thought of trying to get the direct DVD writting function to
work.

from what I see, it's not a setting... it's a third party plug-in like one

I made the computer, so I guess I need to find the setting somewhere.

You have the same version as I do... and I'm using a MCE edition on XP...
and I have the option to burn a DVD from Movie Maker.

The software to add the option is added by the computer maker, not by XP.

Hi, I have Windows XP MCE Edition - fully legal and registered and up
to
date.

But my Windows Movie Maker reports itself as version 2.1.4026. Is this
why
I
cannot find the burn directly to DVD option ? How can I get the correct
version of WMM so I can burn directly to DVD.

I understand this should be a standard feature of WMM on MCE?
