Movie Maker Buttons greyed out?

[Mattyl110792]

Hey,

I'm trying to make a couple of things in Movie Maker, but the viewer to the right hand side with the play buttons etc is greyed out....whether im jhust viewing a collection or trying to play my compilation, they remain greyed out....any suggestions as to why?

Thanks,

Matt

Sorry for the double post, but it's sort of a bumb as well....

i also noticed when i imported something and then added it to the timeline, MM will hang, the preview box sorta flickers and my CPU usage goes up to 60-80%, which it never did in MM....

Getting quite annoying lol

This is Window movie maker?

Has it worked ok before?

THanks for the reply, but i have since found the problem....it seems there was a problem with some codecs, nothing a codec reinstall didnt fix...Thanks

Also, try Movie Maker 2.0. It can be downloaded free from the Windows site, and offers better performance/features
