I have a similar issue. It works if I save to a CD, but not to a DVD !!! I
can burn data or music to CDs or DVDs from other programmes.

The windows media maker does not support DVD's...you need a third party
software that makes DVD's for that. I can't even burn my project to a
regular Cd!!!

I agree with Steve. The issue of not being able to use the save movie wizard
to save to a CD has come up many many times and the fact is that it isn't
that much harder to save it to your hard drive and then burn it to the CD.
You don't even need the CD burning software Steve suggests. Windows Explorer
will do the trick just by dragging it to the CD burner drive designation,
select that drive, click "burn these files to CD" and your done.

He understood the post exactly the way you wrote it.
I understand what you are meaning to say but what you are saying is that you
are trying to save the "Project files" to a CD which of course you can't do
through WMM and I can't imagine why you would want to.

If you are trying to use the "Save to CD" option with a DVD in the drive
that will not work.
If you have the "Save to DVD" option on your version of WMM then it should
be working but that option only creates a very simple DVD without menus and
chapter points etc...
To do anything worthwhile as a DVD you do need a DVD Authoring program such
as one of those listed in the "DVD Programs" section of my website.

What you are doing and what you are saying appear to be 2 different things.
You obviously know the need for third party software to author a DVD. But why
are you trying to save the PROJECT on a CD? Or are you really trying to save
MOVIE to CD? Your first post mentioned the Save Movie Wizard, but the second
post you said Save Project. These are 2 different things.
If you are trying to get the movie on CD and its small enough to fit, save
it to the hard drive then burn the data file with cd burning software.

Saving a project means saving the files <clips> that make up your
project. But saving a movie saves your piece as a single file.

Anyway we now know what you meant so we will call it semantics.
Yes saving to the HDD and going from there is probably your best bet.

I can't seem to post a new question, so maybe someone can help me here.
I downloaded from Canon mini Dv, and created a nice movie in .wmv format.
Plays nice on computer. But I cannot burn a DVD with this format using Sony
NERO software. What do I do; can I save it in some other format that will
allow me to burn DVD? Do not want to do entire movie over.

Are you trying to burn to a CD or a DVD?
If you click "Save to CD" and are using a DVD you will get this message.
I usually recommend saving to the hard drive and going from there to get the
file to CD or DVD using other software.

Nero is not made by Sony MyDVD is.
If you are using a full version of Nero then you should have Nero Vision
Express which will accept WMV files but it is recommended that you save your
movie as a DV-AVI instead and AFAIK all quality DVD Authoring programs
accept AVI files.
