[videoblogging] such a Simpleton! Compression
I just decided to learn how to vblog. It actually doesn't look to bad except that I can't get past a very basic step. I went to the Free Vlog tutorial at: http://freevlog.org/#compress I am using a Dell 4550 PC and have Windows Movie Maker. So I opened WMM and dragged and dropped an video clip (.avi) onto it while I was watching the tutorial video on compressing with WMM. On the tutorial it says to click on Save Movie and then go to other and to NTSC 768 etc. Well for the life of me I can't seem to find the Save Movie button and options to do the other and NTSC 768. [in fact that whole row is missing I see the menu items -file-edit-view- like in the tutorial and I see the row of items below that has undo, redo, tasks, collections and that window, BUT the row with Save Movie Send Record is completely missing). I did a get info about Movie Maker and it says Microsoft Windows Movie Maker Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519: Service Pack 2) Copyright 1981-2001 Microsoft Corp. Windows Movie Maker Version 2.1.4026.0 Do I have an old version that needs updating? Or am I just blind (probably)? I can't get past step .5 on the compression of the video so I can then upload to ourmedia/internetarchive. Can someone please help me here? thanks, Joseph Puentes http://NuestraFamiliaUnida.com Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Fair play? Video games influencing politics.

Hey Joseph, Sorry about that. The tutorial uses Movie Maker from Service Pack 1 Here's how you do it with the current version (the one you have): 1. File Save Movie File... 2. Choose My Computer, click Next 3. Give your file a name and choose a place to save it. click next 4. Choose Other Settings. Select Video for broadband (512kbps) from the dropdown. click next. 5. When it's finished compressing, click Finish. That's it.

RE: [videoblogging] such a Simpleton! Compression
On Behalf Of Joseph Puentes Well for the life of me I can't seem to find the Save Movie button and options to do the other and NTSC 768. [in fact that whole row is missing I see the menu items -file-edit-view- like in the tutorial and I see the row of items below that has undo, redo, tasks, collections and that window, BUT the row with Save Movie Send Record is completely missing). You can get to Save Movie one of two ways: 1) File Save Movie File 2) On the toolbar below File, Edit, View click on the button that says Tasks and expand the Finish Movie section. You can also reveal the Tasks list from View Tasks. Jake Ludington Author - Easy Digital Home Movies http://iMakeMedia.com http://www.jakeludington.com http://www.sync2play.com Yahoo!
