| | An interesting PS3/MM6 quirk With 33 line items in my laptop's MM6 Compatibility List, this quirk kept me busy for hours yesterday as I tracked it down. It's now the 4th 'What Can go Wrong' item on my website's Vista > Publish Movies page. Here's how I wrote it. Issue: Sometimes When I mix a Photo Story 3 wmv file in a movie project with other clips, everything shows fine in the finished movie except the part from the story, which is just blackness. Resolution: This happens on my Vista Home Basic laptop when the audio of the story is muted in the MM6 project and the New Soft Audio Encoder Filter is listed and checked in the Tools > Options > Compatibility list. If I uncheck the filter (or rename it - c:\Program Files\Common Files\NewSoft\NSM2AEnc.ax) and resave the movie, the story clip shows as usual. If I unmute the audio of the story and lower the volume to zero to quiet it, the movie also renders fine with the filter checked. Although I can consistenly repeat the issue, I'm guessing this is really a symptom of a more basic problem that I don't understand. I'm glad I got this far with it yesterday. It's another nudge for me to keep routinely working with all line items unchecked. -- website references are to www.papajohn.org PapaJohn (MVP) |

| | RE: An interesting PS3/MM6 quirk Another interesting quirk. A few minutes ago I found that Photo Gallery (Vista Home Premium as shipped) played the video from several Quick Time Movie clips that I'd copied from my hard drive to an SD card for the purpose of testing the new MOV coveter software. Coincidentally, I didn't download it. -- M101111GAME "PapaJohn" wrote: Quote: > With 33 line items in my laptop's MM6 Compatibility List, this quirk kept me > busy for hours yesterday as I tracked it down.
