Unable to load new transitions
in [Movie Maker]
|
From: DrB on 17 Mar 2006 22:09 I am trying to implement PIP as described elsewhere. MM2 is not listing the new transitions written in .xml and saved in the C:\Program Files\Movie Maker\Shared\AddOnTFX directory as an option. I have restarted MM2, rebooted, and still no joy. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Check the xml for errors Open the folder where the files are. Double click the xml files They should open in IE and be parsed and checked for errors. Note this check syntax only. The file could be syntactically correct but still have errors (eg misspelt words) I dont know what happends if this is the case. Hope this helps Eeyore

Confirm the file has .xml extension by turning off the "hide extensions of known file types" from Explorer > Tools > Folder options > View. Further, try installing the PIP Plus trial installer from my site: http://www.rehanfx.org/pipplus.htm If that works then it confirms that you have not saved the first xml file correctly. By default the Windows hides the extensions of the known files so txt files do not show up with extensions. In this situation any attempt to save files from Notepad results in saved file as "file.xml.txt" although all you see is "file.xml". -- Rehan MS MVP -- Digital Media www.rehanfx.org - get transitions and effects for Windows Movie Maker > "eeyore <"rob.pugh"@" <" wrote: > >> DrB wrote: >> > I am trying to implement PIP as described elsewhere.
