My Windows Movie Maker 2 does not seem to work correctly
I can make a movie just fine and save it and burn it, the problem i'm having is everytime i try to put a title in or add an affect the whole screen just dissappears and it goes back to my desktop. I don't think this has anything to do with my ram or memory
which i happen to have plenty of both. |

Hello! I have problems with Windows Movie Maker 2: first of all, it seems to "eat up" all the free space in the hard drive. I have 2.90 GB of free space, but I only manage to make a movie of 25 minutes (PAL high quality video, about 3 MB per minute). The amount of the free space left melts with every second, then it says that there is no more free space, and finishes with a movie of about 100 MB only! Then it turns out that there is still plenty of free space left... Also, I tried to insert a title to my movie many times, but as soon as I start typing the title, the program simply turns off and brings me back to the desktop! No error report is shown, it is just off! Can I change the settings somehow, or do you have a patch which would solve the problem? Windows uses a temp file while creating the movie. I imagine with so little disc space you are running out of temporary (swap file) file space. That's why it requires 2 gig of free hard drive space, and why you seem to have plenty of space when you finish. Howard |
