I have created a movie for our most recent graduating class of 8th grade students. The movie includes photos, audio, and video (AVI) files. When I try to publish the movie to DVD, some of the video files display and others do not. All files are in the same "collection." I have attempted to remove the video file and import it again with no success. The video files are "morph" files - where the student changes from a baby picture to their 8th grade picture. I don't understand why some work and others don't.

Any help you have will be greatly appreciated.

Step1
Open Windows Movie Maker. Click on "File" and scroll down to click "Import Into Collections."

Step2
From here, find the file that you want to bring into Windows Movie Maker and select it.

Step3
Depending on the size of the file, it may take a few minutes to load into the program. If it's a big file, it will be broken into separate clips but they will download in the original order.

Step4
Once all the clips appear, click and drag them down onto the timetable, and they will be in your project.

Please post back if you have any more problems or questions.

but I see from a web search that this is a semi-common thing. While I havent seen a solution, the best suggestion that I saw said to download and install Movie Maker 2.6 because it fixes some codec problems along with some missing footage in a movie.
