I've had movie maker 2 for several months now and it's been working fine until a week ago. I've been working hard on a movie for school which is due in several weeks and this program stops resoponding. The video also freezes when I'm playing it back, but the audio keeps going in mm2 and when it's saved to the computer and playing through windows media player. I've tried almost everything! I've gone on papajohn.org and restored my computer when it used to have regular movie maker, reinstalled that then download mm2. This didn't work, and I've tried about everything on that web site. I keep getting the same problem even when I start a new project. It's too bad microsoft won't reply to this newsgroup. I guess they don't care about their customers

Hi Filmgeek,

Give this a try and tell us if it works for you:
(Some people seem to be running into these issues when various codecs from
other sources are used)
<cut and pasted from another posting>

I have seen various posts with similar problems. Can you try rendering your
movie in the DV-AVI format?

To do this, when you're on the Movie Settings page choose "Other Settings"
and select DV-AVI from the list (if Other Settings isn't visible then click
"Show more choices...").

Then play back the resultant file and see if it's OK. If so then import that
file back into MovieMaker (you want to turn off the "Create clips for video
files" option at the bottom of the Import dialog so you just get it as one
clip). Then drag that down to the timeline and republish it as WMV with your
chosen profile.
