I have a 13 minute movie and every time I save it - the photos stop appearing at 11 minutes but the audio keeps playing. WHAT COULD BE WRONG????

HELP!

Hello there,

How many Stills are there? More than 100 is known to cause some people
problems.

Does the file type of the stills change at all, are some bnmp and others Jpg?
Some Jpg stills are known to cause problems, but its usually ends with an error
message with those.

Does your project have any MP3 audio tracks? They are also known to cause
problems...change them to WAV or WMA
 
We've seen other reports of this behaviour especially on timelines with a
lot of transitions.

Sometimes just trying to save your movie again will work, as it doesn't
always repro 100% of the time. If in your case it is consistenly failing
then the other suggestion I have is to save your movie as a DV-AVI file
first. 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...").

Play back the resultant DV-AVI file to make sure that it's OK. If you
ultimately want a DVD, you should be able to import that DV-AVI file into
Sonic MyDVD. If you want to save it as a WMV file to save disk space you can
also import the DV-AVI file back into MovieMaker, drag it down to the
timeline then publish it again as a WMV file with your choice of profile.
