My question is about moviemaker live.
I want the ability to play music over a video with people talking on the video.I know how to do that! I want to be able to turn the music volume up and down within the clip. Eg When the people arnt talking on the tape i want to here the music. when they do talk I want to lower the volume on the music. Can I do it ?
You can cut the video- when you want the music/music to be louder, adjust in the music/ video tools.
Example if you want the music to be louder, you can split the video and music from the previous. Then go to music tools to make the music louder.

problem here is that everytime im splitting the .mts files the program stalls on me..
If after several times trying finally some video has been edited it then says: Not enough memory and once again the program freezes
I hit control (S) after most actions and it stopped stalling or freezing on me.

Saved my finished .wlmp live moviemaker 2011 with the .wmv extention as directed. The copy will play on my computer but not on my BlueRay playback recorder. (error…Disk not compatable). BlueRay suggests DVD blanks of DVD-RW & DVD-R. Neither would work. Help! Help! Please

I saved my movie in .wmv format and opened it up to continue editing it. However, my storyboard is slightly greyed out and I cannot edit within the existing file at all. I can play it on my PC. Please tell me that once it is saved I can still edit the file–I have more photos and all the music I still need to add. And I need to move photos around.
You can edit the Movie Maker project file not the final movie you exported from it. The project file has the extension: .wlmp, not .wmv as the end result.

Hi,
When I save my video(which ever format in the save list), the finalized video is completely black having nothing in it but audio only.
I don’t know what is the problem with it. Please advise if someone knows. Thanks.
That’s happened to me, too. In my case, it was because I moved the original pictures files I had used, so suddenly the project couldn’t “find them” to show on the movie. Try putting the pictures back in the file you originally used and see if that helps. Otherwise, you might just have to start over. Hope that helps!

I have created three hours long video which I have saved under lets say END OF THE TV project.
Because, movies(videos) that are uploaded to youtube/dailymotions can have maximum amount of time one hour, I have divided “END OF THE TV” project in three parts(three different projects).
Idea was to normally save first one hour part, then subtract from END OF THE TV the first and third part to record second part and finally to sub track from END OF THE TV the first and second part in order to record third part.
Well…. my three hour dream have ended after I have attempted to record first part from END OF THE TV because upon saving it as the part one and under new video title “part one”, the original END OF THE TV became equal to part one(original video have saved same video prefrences as the part one). In another words, original three hour END OF THE TV was turned into part one(screwed three hours of video recording – impossible to explain how much work was invested in it). Is it possible to fix this or will I end up to loose another week !!? Thank you for your help.
I don’t think there should be an excuse for Microsoft for flows to that degree. Extremely embarrassing.

Hello! I need help desperately PLEASE! I have created a combination video/slide show in WLMM 2011 and it is quite a large file – close to 2GB. When I try saving it so that I can write it to a DVD, I keep being told that there are files missing and that the ‘movie’ cannot be saved until these files are either removed or replaced. The problem is that there are no missing files. I have played the entire things through and there is nothing missing. I think it is a memory problem – somewhere. I’m not a computer buff so I’m not sure where to start searching for a solution – except here… LOL!!! PLEASE can some one help?
Your problem about missing files which really are there in Windows Movie maker, was a while ago. I am still having the same problem. Did you get a solution?

I made a video, saved the project to a movie in a MP4 file. I was then able to “send” it to my new Samsung TV.
Then I made another video, exactly the same way, but in the “send to” menu I don’t see my new Samsung TV. Can you tell me what I did differently, so I can view both movies on my TV?

I was able to finish a project with animations and visual effects. However, when I saved it as a movie, the animations were lost. Can anyone help me please? Thanks!
Hi, I experienced the same problem. I found that I was having trouble because I was saving the file directly to my OneDrive or trying to publish it without saving it first. Once I saved the file directly to my video folder on my computer rather than the cloud, all of the transitions came through and I was able to upload it from there.

please help, have made a slide show (around 20 slides . jpg) with music (.wav). around 5 minutes long. no transitions. no fx. all good. only when i export to .wmv and play the file back (.wmv) a couple of the slides get a fade in transition which i had NOT put in or asked for. they all work fine in the .MSWMM mode, and you don’t see the fades there in the screen in the work mode. they only appear in the final video. very strange. any ideas please. thank you.
just to add. i tried exporting to low quality .wmv and all is fine – no extra transitions between slides. but i lose a lot of video quality that way. the ideal output for me would be a standard high quality (640×480) but that’s where i get the problem. thanks.
