My students are all working on movies. Only my computer will allow the
capture of video(usb), I want to save the clips either to the network
drive(which does not show up when i capture) or to a cd. how can i get the
source files and the project in one file in order to copy it to the shared or
network drive?

Any and all help is so appreciated as I have been working on this problem
for at least a dozen hours

=================================
Couldn't you copy the .mswmm project
file and all the source files to a single folder
and then use a jump drive, CD, DVD, etc...
to move the folder to another computer?

After the move...when you re-open the
..mswmm file on the target system you will
have to re-establish the link to the source files.

When source files are moved or deleted from
their original locations the links will be lost and
Red Xs appear.

Try right clicking the Red Xs and see if you
can Browse to the source files and re-establish
the link.

John, I am having a similar problem. Browsing and reconnection is a pain when
your movie is made up of hundreds of files.

In my case I am trying to move my daughter's project from a desktop(XP)
where she started the project to her new laptop(Vista). The folder structures
are different. Is there an .ini file or a registry setting that would allow
me to tell Movie maker where to find the files?

Sorry but a simple copy/paste and then
browse is the only way I know of. Maybe
someone else will have a solution.
