I have used several versions of PD and am now using 9 and until recently I have had good luck with it. I recently had a failure with my computer and had to reload XP Pro and reloaded everything. I ran PD9 and when I went to produce a video to YouTube it gave me the "error making movie". I can only use avi if I were to save them to a folder. I have removed Quick Time and reinstalled it as well as PD9 three times. I have made 300 videos to YouTube in our business so I have had experience using PD.

Are you saying that only AVI works, or did I read that wrong? When you reinstalled, did you also update all drivers? Maybe attach a DxDiag.txt file and we can look it over. __________________________________

AVI works if I just try to save it to a folder.

There should be a space to attach it at the bottom of the reply screen. __________________________________

You are two version behind on your DirectX. You have Ver9

Make sure you have the latest codecs like K-lite and FFdshow, (did not see that in your specs in the directshow section) I think the codecs not being up to date are the reason you can only do avi.

Your ATI driver looks like it got last months update.

I think if you were using it before assuming with little issues, and not now with a clean OS install, more than likely updating everything and getting it current will help especially those codecs and directx.

A very simple solution to my problem of wmv's not playing on my computer and as well as playing on PD9. I loaded Microsoft Music Player 11 on my computer and I opened PD9, Produce and File. I choose WMV and then went to You Tube and went through the process and it loaded. So allot of headaches with a simple solution.

You are correct about the DirectX 11 for XP.... which the non availability surprises me. XP is the only version of Windows I missed for home use. __________________________________________
