High Res photos are blurred in Movie Maker slide show – help?!

09. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: , , ,
I have uploaded high resolution photos in movie maker to make a slide show with music of my wedding photos.  When I click on the icon to watch it in full screen, the photos are blurred and not clear - even though its the high-res files I have uploaded, can anyone advise how I get them to look sharp and clear?

Please help! Problem with Audio in Windows Movie Maker

28. May 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: ,

I have searched the forum and am not able to find an answer to this specific issue, but I am ready to pull my hair out with frustration!

I have been asked to create a slide show for my son's graduation tomorrow night (5/29/14). I used Windows Movie Maker (in Windows 8) and have created the slide show with 4 corresponding songs without issues, but I have 2 MAJOR problems with the playback. 

The first issue that I have is that sometimes when I open the file there is simply no sound. I have checked all volume controls, etc. The only resolution I can find is to shut down my computer and reboot. I really don't want to hassle with this on graduation night. Any ideas how I can fix? I have already downloaded audio patches from Windows and nothing has worked.

The second issue is that the musical transitions are not working when I play the slide show in it's entirety. The first song transitions to the second with no problem, but after the second song, the music stops playing and the slides continue. The only fix I can find is to pause the slide show, back up a few slides and start playing again. Any idea why this is happening? It is so very frustrating considering the amount of time I have put into this project to have all these glitches. I would really appreciate any ideas of how to solve these problems. I would love to be able to play this slide show on graduation night (tomorrow!) without all these issues. Thank you!

2 problems creating movie maker slide show

20. February 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: ,

I am working on my first Windows Live Movie Maker slide show and I am having 2 problems with images loaded to my slide show and 1 problem with the audio.

1) Some photo's which are perfectly fine, become very blurred and out of focus when added to M/Maker.  I have tried deleting and re-loading them but the fault  is repeated.  The fault appears to be random because other images of identical specification and quality, taken on the same camera at the same time and loaded into my computer at the same time are perfectly sharp in M/Maker.

2)  The clock for setting length of display of individual images seems to be appears to be very inaccurate, as much as 3 seconds out over a period of 10 seconds.  This makes it extremely difficult to cue images and sound together. I realise M/Maker is a very basic programme, however, I think these are very basic problems which should not be happening, so am I doing something wrong or is there a fault with the programme or my computer?

3) Audio - I am using a wav file of one song as the audio track for the slide show and at times it is very stuttery.  The file plays fine on my computer.

I have gone through the repair and re-install process and the faults remain unaltered.

I am working with the Widows 7 O.S.

All and any suggestions to correct these problems would be welcome.

Files wont show in slide show

So I am making a slide show with JPEG images, Like I have many times.  No audio.  I put the images in the area where they are suppose to be, but the slide show viewer is Blank.  

I have restarted the program.  Saved it first.  Not saved it first. Rebooted the computer.  Re loaded MS essentials/Movie maker.  resized the images. added audio (audio played....but still blank.

I am so frustrated...what can I do?  what have I done?  

I know in the past when I added images there was a timer telling me the images were uploading...and that took time.  This is not showing a timer any longer??>

Can I synch a slide show with the beat of music?

Is it possible to synchronize a slide show with the beat of music? I'm using WMM 2012 on Windows 7 and know how to synch a slide show with the length of an audio. But what if I want my slides to change, say, every 4 beat?

Can’t view slide show pictures

01. November 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , ,
Recently I received pictures but I can't view them in the 'slide show'.  If I click each picture separately I can open and view only the first and last picture; nothing else.  The pics are being sent via Apple I-Pad; I have not had this problem with other pictures before.  Any explanations?

Forwarding emails with pictures that turn out as a slide show

I have Windows 7 and use windows live mail 2012. From time to time I receive emails with pictures in the body of the email and more often than not a caption at the side of the picture or underneath the picture. If I try to forward it on the pictures end up as a slide show across the top of the email with the body of the email showing square boxes where the picture should be. Sorry this is not very technical but its the best way I can describe it.  I have had the trouble in the past but not for a long time now. This latest problem started with a friend who has just bought a new computer and has Windows 8. Could it be that now 8 and 7 are not compatible? My ISP is Sky.

 

Does any one know the answer to this problem. It doesn't happen all the time just from time to time but its annoying when it does happen.

Photo embed on emails doesn’t appear properly in Windows live mail.
