I just saw what Windows Movie Maker 2 can do and I went home to try it out. When ever im working on a effect such as a title, once im done the program crashes on me. It just goes to the desktop, and windows dosen't say anything. I tried going to download.com and reinstalling Movie Maker 2 and it didn't work. I have a Ati Radeon 8500LE 128MB and I even updated its drivers to the latest from ATI and I still the problem. Please help... :confused:

    Well, if is doing it on both nVidia and ATI then it is likely to be the program having a limited layering ability. Some programs cannot take one layer and put on many frames, some can only do one layer of text on a video frame at once.

    Have done this with still graphics also, laid a layer on top of a stack of things that had not been merged and had the whole program die.

    If you do not need moving video under your title, the whole title and background can be done in a graphics program and the graphic stuck in as a frame or copied for 6-8 frames if you only need a short showing of a title and 20 if you need a second or so with normal movies. This will be easier for a program that makes movies to handle, gettting a graphics for a frame predone and handed to it.

    If you want a free program for this look at the most recent Open Office, and open it and use the draw program that comes with it to make your title and save as a transparent gif. Paint Shop Pro, Corel Draw, and many others can output transparent background gifs.

    I didn't have that problem with assembling about 10 1 minute long clips from my digital camera.

    I had the same problem, and it was caused by the DivX codec.
    You need to remove DIVXAF.AX to stop this glitch


    To do so:

    (1) Click Start, and then click Search (->For Files or Folders).
    (2) In the Search Companion dialog box, click "All files and folders".
    (3) Type "DIVXAF.AX" (without quotation marks) in the "All or part of the file name" box
    (4) In the "Look in" box, choose "Local Hard drives".
    (5) Click "More advanced options" to make sure that the "Search subfolders", "Search hidden files and folders", and "Search system folders" are selected.
    (6) Click Search.
    (7) After searching DIVXAF.AX, right click it, and click Delete.
