WMM insists files are 'missing or changed' since capture
And only tells me this after I've done all the editing work on it and go to
save it as a movie (On my hard drive). I use WMM a LOT and this is a totally new problem but I can't overcome it. After it did it once, I wrote it off as something went corrupt even though I can see, watch and manipulate all the scenes - they are not missing (when they are they have the red X and prompt me to find them - I know this cuz I've moved files before). So, I recaptured the video and immediately dragged it to a timeline and started saving the whole thing to test it. It seemed to work fine so I cancelled the save and went back to work re-editing it for the 2nd time. When I was done, the same thing happened. I went to save as movie and it starts to and 2 seconds of the 'saving your movie screen' I get the error message saying all or part of my movie is missing or changed and I need to find them or delete those parts to be able to save my movie. So, I just captured for the 3rd time and IMMEDIATELY dragged the whole capture to the timeline and tried to save as a movie - I got the same error message. This was after I ran chkdsk (with repair and data recovery) on all drives this morning in case it was a drive problem. I also uninstalled WMM2 (the creative thing) in case that was it. I should say that I'm using a camera that isn't my normal one (this is an 8mm) with a digital connection. I HAVE successfully edited 2 short videos with this exact setup though. So, should I reset my puter back to last week and try that or uninstall and reinstall WMM - and how does one do that exactly, it's not in the software removal area in the control panel, do I have to use the XP disk? I hope some kind soul is motivated to help me with this mystery. Editing is a big part of my living (yeah - so why use WMM, I know) so I really need this solved quickly. Just in case I'm importing the projects into AVS to edit and IT doesn't tell me the files are missing - they import just fine. Sue |
