I have the Microsoft MCE that was preinstalled on my hp computer. I think
"Muvee Maker" is the default (I had Sonic but the trial expired). I MAY
be
wrong about that being the default.. I had one heck of a time finding a
movie
recorded to HD by the MC. Finally I learned the file extension is
*.DVR.MS. I
ran a search, then an advanced search since i knew the exact date I
recorded
it. Still, I couldn't find the file. If I remember correctly , you have to
find it in "ALL Users" then "Recorded TV". I was looking in HP
Administrator
. It seems like the Media Center and the PC do not communicate with each
other. I've been trying to burn this movie (recoreded from TV) since March
4th.
My movie is too long for the default DVD burner. I DL'd free compression
software that will make it smaller than the MC can BUT... I have to change
the .DVR.MS to a different format. I'm still trying to figure that out
LOL.
Many times I have been told to "uninstall" then "reinstall" stuff to make
it work. If you can do that with your burner and the FORMAT is correct
(good
luck- I'm not getting it yet) maybe it will work.
If I learn anything else, I'll let you know.
The issue is a bit complex all round, the OP "downloaded" a movie in mpeg4
format, this is a highly compressed format aimed for streaming etc.
Playback in media player is not the same as being able to burn a format
to DVD. I suspect it is an issue of converting the mpeg4 to DVD compliant
mpeg2, of which MM cannot do.
Your MCE/DVR-MS issues:
"Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) DVR-MS file"

I am trying to burn a dvd from a downloaded movie. At first I was having
problems even viewing the movie on my computer after download- I could
only
pick up the audio. But, after reading some posts, I downloaded codec XVID
MPEG-4. Now I am able to watch the "video" on my computer as well as
receive
audio. Assuming everthing was in order, I tried to burn the movie to a
dvd
(currently have DVD-R)using Windows Media Player. When I listed the movie
from the "Library" and clicked on it to burn, an error message popped up.
Here are the stats:
1. Error code: COOD1199
2. Error text: Cannot Play the File, An Error Occurred
3. About Windows Media Player: 10.00.00.3990
4. Operating System Version:
Microsoft Windows XP
Media Center Edition
Version 2002
Service Pack 2
I am frustrated as I have been working on this for awhile. (I am also
having
problems burning my home-movies from camcorder to dvd, but am hoping it
will
resolve with the same solution as this dvd-burn problem I am having).
Since
everything seems to be working right on computer, I don't know why I
can't
transfer to dvd.
Are there any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks!
