My Windows Media Player 11 lists a playlist without a name. I cannot add songs to it, rename it, or delete it. It is not represented among the files in the "My Playlists" folder. I cannot figure out how to get rid of it. Is it supposed to be there?

Hi All, Why when you close Media player half way through a DVIX or XVID does the sound still play. Ctrl-Alt-Del shows as a process still.??? Is it the codecs causeing this or Media Palyer.??? Cheers anyone

Does anyone know of a Real Player version that works in Vista 64Bit. Cheers

Running Vista Home Premium, with the built in Movie Maker ver. 6. After dragging an AVI clip to the storyboard, in timeline mode, the moviemaker crashes if I try to do anythingwith it. The message is: "Data Extraction Prevention stopped the program..." When I tried to change the DEP settings to allow running the program, I was not permitted. On some other occasions there is another...

Hi All, Had Vista about a month now and am actually pretty impressed. I've just started playing with MC and find that when I try to burn a recorded show to DVD it stops responding. This happens after selecting between video DVD and data DVD, I select video DVD and then click next and nothing happens, it just stops. Anyone else had this problem or know of a workaround, or better, what I'm

Vista no longer has the filmstrip option like XP did. I recall some asking here or maybe it was in another group or forum. Anyhow for those interested in regaining that option you can if you download XnView, one of my favorite thumbnailer/viewer/players/converter applications. The option to make a film strip is under Tools... create a strip which can be any folder either vertically or...

Public television stations (in USA) are starting to air the latest Ken Burns documentary. Check local listings for times. Some should be on tonight. This one is on WWII. If you want vivid examples of the effect that bares his name, ie the Ken Burns effect (how to slowly pan/zoom a still image to bring it to life (great for slideshows) watch the expert in action....

It seems a lot of people are getting confused with how to use Photo Galley properly. It can be both a blessing and a curse DEPENDING on HOW you use it if you don't understand HOW it works. Remember Photo Galley is PRIMARALLY designed as a graphic search engine/thumbnail viewer that can be used to sort and display graphic material on your system REGARDLESS where supported file types are located....

This got me stumped. I've burned over a 1,000 DVDs and aside from the usual bad media once in awhile just doing a reburn was the cure. Not this time. I've just tried my 4th burn all fail at the same point. Background: I had a short home brew vid than runs about 12 minutes. I placed it and five others on the same DVD. Both the DVD Authoring software and DVD burning software say all files are...

I've been a critic of Movie Maker. Sometimes a harsh critic, but Microsoft FINALLY did something right. For the last couple months Microsoft has had something new in the works called Expression Media Encoder. While no Vegas, it is a leap forward. Yep, a leap, not just a step. Before anybody gets too excited it still is a BETA and to get a copy you need to jump through a couple hoops. You need to...

Many times Movie Maker just can't cut it. You know that. I've made suggestions in the past, but perhaps you don't want to invest more money to get something better. Two applications anyone seriously into making videos should have, both free, one you may know about, the other you may not have heard of and surprise, it's also from Microsoft, but tucked away in some dark corner of their...

I have an analog capture card, and am wondering what the optimal specs (frame rate, resolution) for capturing video would be, both for S-Video and the Red-White-Yellow cables. Thank you in advance for your help. - Adam
