Moviemaker crashing

Hi Brian,

Upgraded from 10.37S b09 to b19 over the weekend - noticed that the videos are not being made as before. Checked it seems that moviemaker is crashing out just after its initiated. Have rolled back to the old version of moviemaker in b09 which is working fine for now.

I have checked "Produce moviemakerlog.txt in New All Day Video Setup - but the log does not give any useful info.

Any thoughts?

Regards

Ian.

movie maker has not changed since 27th june
and I have not had any other reports of this problem since that version was released
so not sure why you are having this problem

best thing is to .zip and email me your settings files

Hi Brian,

Definite change in my version - new Moviemaker is 11Mb compared to the old 1Mb file

sent settings file to [email protected]

Regards,

Ian.

I have emailed you some suggestions :wink:

Hi Brian,

Not receiving emails from you. Apologies - think we have had this issue before, can you re-send from your gmail?

Regards,

Ian

ah
here was my reply
Hi

how are you saving the jpg image used for the movie maker?

I notice you do not have set to use wdwebcamcapture.exe

but I do see at some stage you had set a gif file name for the jpg file name in the file save settings

and you have a gif image name selected in the time stamped files settings instead of a jpg image file name in the webcam setup in WD

instead of lounge_stamped.jpg

so I suspect you have a mixture of gif and jpg time stamped files
which is causing the crashing of moviemaker
i would try deleting all the time stamped web cam files

also I do have a you tube video on how to set up to create all day videos :slight_smile:
