I can't figure it out! |

I have some digital videos on Sony Digital 8 format and I decided to
transfer them to my PC and thence to CD or DVD. So I rigged up the
cable between the HandyCam and the PC and opened WMM and clicked on
record, started the camera in playback. Everything worked like a charm
and I ended up with a nice .WMV file (7.5 MB)which plays well through
Windows Media Player. Great!
Then why can't I do the same thing with the second tape? I've tried it
with and without using clips (final size either way only about 27 MB)
but I always get the same problem. It only takes about 2 seconds for
WMM to save the movie as the final step of the process. Much too
little time. Whenever I try to play the saved WMV file on Media Player
the player immediately says "stopped" and shows nothing. If I try to
play the time line it plays fine. And then when I try to click on a
clip afterwards I get told by WMM that the file isn't there any longer.
And when I check the properties of the .WMV file it's only about 7 or
8 KB, i.e. there's only about one frame there even though I told it to
involve about 120 clips to make the final movie.
I have no idea what's going on. I even went to Microsoft site and
tried to download the 2.1 version of WMM but all I got was a bunch of
security updates.
Anyone help me here?
