Movie Maker problem

Why do my movie files look fine when imported to a collection but when
dragged into a storyboard become unsynchronized?

it could be a codec issue... if you're trying to use MPEG-2 or Divx/Xvid
encoded files... what type of video files are you trying to use?

I am using a canon sd400 and I think the files are .avi

Online info about your Canon says it records in Motion JPEG format.... which
could have an AVI extension.

It's a codec issue. If you don't have success with them in Movie Maker,
converting them to other files would be the thing to do....
