I've looked around to see if someone had seen this before but I didn't find
any close enough.
I have imported several clips into movie maker, added them to the
storyboard, trimmed the timing and added a few titles.
Everything plays just fine in movie maker, and plays through if I publish to
"this computer"
However, if I select to publish to DVD, a number of the clips are cut off.
Some of them are ones that have titles added, some aren't. Also, a number of
the clips are missing from the "scenes" section in the menu.
Gspot says many of the videos are MJPG, but some are fine, and some aren't.
I can't figure out what the issue is.
I am using Windows Vista 64, and have the ffdshow codec pack installed.

===================================
Maybe your project is too complex and there
is a hard coded limit of 18 scenes in Windows
DVD Maker.

I checked and I do have more then 18 scenes. Is this documented somewhere as
being the limit?
Also, anyone know why it would cut some of the scenes off in the middle
instead of just chopping the ones at the end?
Because it seems to chop some of the scene clips arbitrarily while excluding
others completely, but not just at the end.

Need proof huh?

I think the following article answers all of your
questions.
