Video rendering problem
-
wax's forum is rubbish, and movie maker crashes whenever I try to save something
-
How about VirtualDub then? To me it has always served pretty well. (I do not use either of your apps so I cannot really suggest any more valuable)
-
Thanks gai, I'll get it and see how it does
-
Gonna have to do some pride-swallowing here. . .
Gai, thanks for all the help and patience, and thanks for the virtualDub link. However, I said before that windows movie maker didn't work, trouble is, something has happened since I last used it that means it now works, sorry bout that. Need a bit more help, on movie maker I have put all the footage together( it was in many separate files) but it si 2 hours long, how do I speed up the footage to get ti to a decent length? -
I really do not know that, sorry. I have never added such footage myself.
-
K i'll google it, thanks for your help gai
-
Its 2 hours long? How rae you thinking to get it to a reasonable size? And what is reasonable to you? Like 5 minutes? Or like 30?
Are you planning to take it down in size by cutting out the less important parts? Or by speeding it up?
I have to be working in Movie Maker today and probably through the rest of the week. I don't remember how to speed things up or slow them down, but if I see how I'll come back and post here. I know it used to be possible.

yeah I wanna speed it up so that it's less than 10 minutes, then I can get it on youtube
-
In the Video effects, there is a "Speed Up, Double" option. So you can apply that as many times as necessary to get it under 10 minutes.
There might be another way, but I am not sure right now.

K I tried that, trouble is you can only apply it to one file at a time, and that's a right bitch when there are files, which have been split up into 20 different pieces by movie maker, is there a way to merge all the files into one, or apply an effect to all pieces at once?
-
Yup, You can go to the video effects window. Now right click on the speed up effect and choose "copy". Then select all your clips in the storyboard with ctrl-a. Now press ctrl-v to paste the effect onto all clips. That should do it. And you can paste it in as many times as needed. Though after each paste, you will need to re-select all with ctrl-a again.
See if that works.
