converting .mswmm to .ipo,.vob,.bop, for Nero

[bobandlisa]

Help, I have made movies on Movie Maker, need to burn to DVD....movie maker
does not do this, I have read that I need to convert so Nero can burn. Not
sure the exact steps to do this. I can not select another file type in save
as in Movie Maker. Thank you in advance for help. This is very
frustrating!!

Your MSWMM file contains only information as to what original files are
contained in your project. It does not contain any video.

Use the Save to My Computer option and save as DV-AVI format. Then use Nero
(or whatever) to create your DVD.

Thank you, I was able to figure out how to make it AVI. I still can not get
Nero to burn that file. The error I get is Unexpected file format. Any
suggestions on how to get help for this? Thank you!

You need to update your version of NERO. DV-AVI is an almost universally
recognized format...it you are getting errors, then it may be a software
issue (bad installation).

Hi,
I have tried to use the save to my computer option and save in a DV-AVI
format, following the prompts, but it always appears with an error
message of "Your movie was not saved successfully" enevn when I select
a different option such as video for local playback, bearing in mind I
don't want to jeopardise the quality of a home movie. If I can figure
out how to save to DV-AVI format that would be great,as I am assuming
my next step would be to use NERO and make a Video DVD?
