Later in the evening, I tried to go back and edit another video, and....no audio. At all. I played the individual clips comprising the movie in other programs - WMP and VLC - and the audio was just fine. In fact, in Movie Maker, the little sound wave indicators in each audio clip still appear, but no sound comes out for any of them. I even reopened the video project I had just completed THE SAME DAY, and it didn't play audio.
No system updates were made - to my knowledge - and I didn't download a single thing between the time it was working and when it stopped working. This happened before, but it was only when I had Adobe Premiere open at the same time, and all it took was me closing both programs and reopening WMM.
Thoughts? Help please?
Ok, so i just spent hours editing a video and have just finished saving the movie.
Luckily I did.
I have no clue what version im running however when i look at the properties it tells me it was created in 2011.
I record my band using a sony digital camera. It has awesome video, but the audio, not so much. I can record directly off of our mixer to a computer and save the audio file. Then I want to sync that audio to my video in Window's live movie maker.
Anyone know how?
When I save my edited project to a movie file, no matter which save setting or aspect ratio, it cuts off the top of the video.
When recorded, the action was close to the top of the frame, so this issue means that on playing the 'movie' you cannot see all the action. It does not have the 'black bars' issue. The video looks and sounds fine when I play it in the project window, even when I expand it, but as soon as I save it as a movie it doesn't show the whole picture. Distressing since I was trusted with taping the event and creating a simple movie from it.
It is almost like it is zoomed in and the full video picture can not be seen, losing some at the top. I recorded some people and their heads were near the top of the frame. Once I save it as a movie, regardless of the ratio setting I select (widescreen or standard), it always 'loses' the top of the video picture so I can see only the lower half of the people's heads and faces in the video. (In the frame on playback, I'd say it is about an inch of loss of the video using the video app to play it)- just enough to lose the crucial part of the what I recorded.
To clarify, playing it back in the project window, everything looks fine (other than being a bit grainy and a little jumpy) but I wasn't expecting miracles :) Just didn't expect to lose part of the original video.
Things I did:
I added music, credits and used video-stabilizer (anti-shake and wobble correction - low).
I've tried removing each of those elements and saving as a movie in a variety of formats, ratios etc. but it has not helped.
I hope I've explained this well enough, but please ask me questions if it doesn't make sense. I am running Windows 8 and Movie Maker from Windows Essentials 2012.
Any and all assistance would be appreciated.
