Windows 7 Movie Maker is actually Windows Live Movie Maker which is a stripped-down version of Windows Movie Maker 2.6. It does not have all the features and functionality of the 2.6 version... including a Timeline.
Click on the Storyboard view.
Yes. Windows Movie Maker has a video Overlay. It is located in the Timeline view only though.
Are you sure you are on the Time-line? 'Cause you won't see movement in Storyboard view.
Windows Movie Maker is designed for PCs, not Macs.
The Task View in Windows Movie Makers shows you all the different features that are available.
Before you can view, share, email or burn a movie from Windows Movie Maker, you must first Publish or Finish the project. This process exports/converts the Windows Movie Maker file into a Standard viewing format (that others can see).Once you have Published or Finished the movie maker video, you can view it in any media player, send it by email, upload it to the Internet or burn it to CD/DVD.Just remember, you CANNOT do this with a Windows Movie Maker video that is still in project form.
Try watching it on your Windows Media Player. If you can't see it on Windows Media Player, then it is not formatted correctly to view in Windows Live Movie Maker.
There are several ways you can share your Windows Movie Maker videos with others. I suggest watching the video tutorial at the URL posted below:http://sclipo.com/videos/view/share-anywhere-easily-with-windows-movie-maker-2
Unfortunately, no. You can't do that with Windows Movie Maker.
In the top left hand corner when Windows movie maker is opened under 'Tools" ~ "options"~Advanced~you can slow down the photo/Video viewing speed which therefore slows down whatever text you have already added in the timeline view. An easier way is to carefully (so as not to change the order) in Timeline view just shorten or lengthen the duration of the text by clicking on the text box and sliding it left or right. You have to be ON that frame to do any text editing.
You can't take the sound off the Storyboard section in Windows Movie Maker. All that type of editing has to be done in the Time-line view.
Music has to be imported to Windows Movie Maker first. Once it is in the program, drag it to the Audio/Music track (in the Time-line view).
