  Blurry pictures         


Author: jenchick05

Hello. My pictures are showing up really blurry when I preview the photo
slideshow I made in Movie Maker. I read that this is normal but when you show
on the tv it will not be blurry.

Here is my issue: I want to show the slideshow on the tv, but I am not quite
sure what the best way t is to get it to the tv.

Can I just save it as a movie file and then get some kind of cord to hook it
up to the tv? If this is the case, then what is the best way to save it? What
kind of cord do I need? Will the pictures be blurry?

Or do I need to get the slideshow on a dvd? I do not have dvd burner but my
friend does. If this is the correct solution then what is the best way to get
the slideshow on the dvd and still have it show good quality pictures on the
tv?

Thanks for your help!

  Movie Maker Crashes after 7 items placed in story line         


Author: sparkfish
Date: May 11, 2008 00:23

I have cured the problem ... after about 30 hours of reading up and trying
various suggestions
Thanks to those that replied and helped me finally establish a solution
For the archives, and to help others here is an out line of what I found out.
A) This is a problem that has been recorded several times before ( see Dean
Rowe blog) some people have experienced crashing after 6 items are put on the
story board and some after the seventh but it is always the same fixed number
of items when the crash occurs
B) The problem seems to be that the update files Wmm2ae.dll through to
Wmm2res.dll are up loaded via Microsoft automatic update BUT the main
programe moviemk.exe is not ( has not been ) updated and is vers 2.0 instead
of ver 2.1
c) uploading xp sp2 or running Microsoft up dates DID NOT cure it
d) this is how I FOUNDthe problem
make a restore point
in c:\program Files\Movie maker, view , tiles
Check that Wmm2Ae.dll .... to Wmm2res.dll are there and have the version
number 2.1.40.26 ( as per Dean Rowe's blog)
CheckMovieMk.exe in explorer select properties and if the file is ver 2.0
then you have confirmed the problem it should be ver 2.1.... ...

I hv play back problem in MM.

I try to import back the same file again, but error appears.
It says "... .jpg could not be imported. The selected item has been deleted
from the project. To use this item in your movie, import the original file
again."
Can somebody assist?

  Setting title duration         


Author: BK
Date: May 10, 2008 19:41

I know I can use Options on the Tools pull-down menu to set the duration for
each picture to display. Now I want to put a title on each picture that
will display for the same duration. Is there someplace I can set that title
display duration or do I have to manually adjust it on each picture?

When I import a home movie from a camcorder, MovieMaker breaks it up
into clips. How do I now take an individual clip and break that up into
further clips?

Thanks.

  An interface has too many methods to fire from... intermittent iss         


Author: Kane
Date: May 9, 2008 17:53

I think I have read just about every response to this error message, except
my issue is a little different than the others. I have a Sony DCR-HC30 which
I used for years with WMM 2.1 connect via firewire with no issue.

Now I ingest footage off my DCR via WMM with no issue, edit and output it
for DVD burning and suddenly the AVI files that I could view yesterday, are
unreadable today with the "An interface has too many methods to fire events
from" error.

Now the only think I have changed over the years is the addition of a 500Gb
HDD for storing and working on more video footage. The drive has occassion
issues staying connected through the USB. I am suspecting that it is either
the drive or the USB connection that is unstable here.

I am lookinf for options and suggestions to resolve my issues. Would
connecting external HDD to the PC via firewire improve anything? Is there
another resolution I am overlooking? Please advise. Thanks.
