I'm trying to save my movie to a CD but keep getting the message that files
are missing or deleted. But all the files in the project are in the same
folder as when I started. Is there any way to tell which files are
problematic? I've checked the properties for each file, and they're all where
they should be. HELP!

Welcome to the club.....This is my problem as well...have been looking for a
solution to no avail....

And me too!

I posted the same plea on 20/12 under
"Error Message....Source files missing"

Do hope there is help out there, but suspect I will have to follow the
indirect advice given by Wojo on his website
http://www.remember-christopher.dost...eb/index.html/

about splitting!

I am hopeful I will then to able to 'isolate' which import is causing the
problem.

I am also going for a fairly massive upgrade of my 'puter, because 'film
producing' does require much more power and space on HD than I ever thought
possible.

Sorry I could not be of more help!

Do let me know if you receive a better solution to our problem!
Regards
Mike

Also check out www.papajohn.org cannot cave my movie.
Files that may cause this sort of trouble are Mpegs for video, non dv avi
files (such as divx avi files) MP3 music, Jpeg stills. Best to use wmv or
dv-avi for video, wav/wma/wmv for audio and bitmap for stills.
