hi all,

I do LOVE windows movie maker but I've been facing a problem the 2 times I
used it. First time was about a couple of years ago when I created a movie by
importing images from my pc and a song. It worked great for me but when I
sent it by email the receiver couldn't see the pix cz they're not on the
user's pc. Moreover, the song seemed to be playing cz the umm, well the
scroll bar was moving but the images appeared as red X's. The second time was
a few months back when i was using movie maker as a song mixing prog. I
really loved the idea of a song starting at the end of another (emerging or
whatever it is) but when I moved the whole folder from one pc to another the
songs didn't work (as if the links were broken or something). how can i solve
that?

sorry for the long post and thanx in advance
 
The reason the emailed file didn't work is because, I assume, it was a MSWMM
file which is only a Movie Maker project file. You need to actually create
the movie in one of 3 ways.

1) Click "Save to my computer"
2) Click File -> Save Movie File
3) Press CTRL+P

Any of these steps will open the save movie wizard which will create either
a WMV or a DV-AVI file that should play on anybody's computer without
needing the original pictures.
 
yeah thanx i get it but it's been a long time and the movie is dead now..the
pc was formatted *sniff*. lol thanx anyways
