Sorry, wasn't sure if you meant you were only going by what the movie maker preview shows, which are generally blurry, or the the final ouput through full media player. What type of file is your final movie (avi, wmv, mpg)? What compression/quality settings are you using?

You could try installiing the latest codecs from http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Mega_Codec_Pack.htm Also, if you're only looking at the movie maker preview then that is a lite version of media player as such. Try viewing it after through media player or better still vlc from...

Probably needs touching up again now, after 2 years

Hi After being assured the floor would be levelled, my sister has had a kitchen installed, quite a small overall area of around 4m x 3m. Kitchen in ok as is upper tiling but seems the promised floor levelling wasn't done and basically the floor dips to the middle. The tiler for the floor...

When you save your finished movie you give it a name then next screen gives you the framerate and size options. Change from the default 'Best quality for my pc' to a predefined setting with Variable Bit rate or define your own bitrate

Just allowing HTTP port 80 from a particular IP should solve any problems..should they wish to use secure processing then you can always open up the port as needed rather than open by default. Security tip is to close everything and only open what you need.

Hi, I've been reading the forum and have picked up some great tips as I've stripped and now preparing 3 floor stairway, nevertheless I still don't think I can competently paint a 6 panelled door in 15 minutes ;) The house was previously flats prior to converting it back to a house (made a...

Hi I've some PVC cladding to be installed over a long span, around 6 metres length x 3 metres. The original ceiling is lathe and plaster (loft above) which slopes/falls away about 2 metres in on the width. I plan to batten with 3x2 on every joist, so my questions. What size/type screws...

Not riding a bike means I haven't taken lessons and a test? I assume you've passed your test then as you're all knowing on the subject?

A dickhead is a dickhead regardless of the form of transport, as in the original case. Bikers generally take their own life in their hands and, from my experience - I don't drive a bike - are more aware of their surroundings. The test is much harder than a car test. Their was, or is, it...

Cheers.

Two for Utile ;)

Thanks. Never heard of those two Jason, they are the originals from the house (I assume) which is from 1880+ if that's any help, the wood comes off orange when sanding. The handrail, which I hope is the same and original once the paint is off, seems a little redder but I hope I can finish...
