    How to combine 2 movie maker timelines, or burn 2 to same DVD

    I have 2 soccer games edited on seperate windows movie maker timelines. I
    want to make one DVD for each team member. I tried importing an additional
    timeline or a saved movie version to add it to one already pulled up, but it
    just replaces it. Alternatively, I could just figure out how to burn more
    than one timeline to the same DVD. This is way too much effort for a soccer
    mom! Please help.

    I don't use movie maker to burn my DVD's so I can't rememer if the program has that capability, but you could use Roxio.

    To save multiple files to a DVD in movie maker, first save each movie to your computer by hitting the "publish" button on the top of the screen, then follow the prompts. After that, open Roxio and import the files. Roxio is pretty user-friendly and it's better for DVD menus.

    =============================
    Sounds like you are working with .mswmm
    project files. Try saving each project as a
    movie...then reimport the movie files and
    add them to the timeline as source files.

    Maybe the following links will offer some
    ideas on how to publish (save) the movie:
