So, I don't have much WMM experience, and I've figured out how to import a movie that I took off my camera and I found out how to mute the audio because no one wants to hear a bunch of screaming parrots and dogs wrestling in the background, I think Dan knows what I'm talking about lol. So I had been making silent films so to speak. I've recently taken a bunch of small feeding vids, all being under 2 min each. I put them all together on the story board, muted their audio, fine. Now I wanted to try and add a song. So finally after searching for one with out cuss words, which was a project on it's own. I then came to the problem that WMM wouldn't accept the type of music file I had. So another mission of finding a song with no cuss words, and a file type that WMM would accept. Ok Done. So I imported it, and added it into the audio line, well the song was a bit longer then the movie bits So I trimmed it. No biggie, Then I added in titles before the movie, at the start of each clip, and one at the end. So tested it out, all looks gravy (good). Time to save it to my computer so I can upload it to youtube. So I click the save to my computer button, and it tells me it's calculating the time it will take to process my movie, and the time keeps increasing and increasing. It went up 1% and stopped. I ended up falling asleep, and when I woke up, it said I had almost 100,000 MINUTES before it would start saving, and it was still counting UP and only at 1% still.
So I say ok there has to be a problem here, I canceled it, and started over, same thing happened, but this time it didn't even show 1% done. I said OK I'm gonna leave this going and go out and when I come back it will be done, well no it wasn't, went to sleep with it going, and no still not done when I woke up, and the time is still counting up and not even 1% done. So I've left it going all day today and it's been almost 24 hours since I started. I haven't checked it in several hours, but I have a feeling it's still calculating the time.
So there has to be something going on here, but what? The movie is just under 5 min long, how can it take this much time?
Also I made a 30 min vid of my snake feeding on a rat, but who wants to sit for 30 min and watch in real time? I figure not too many and would like to know how do I speed it up so it's only maybe a 10 min movie and not a 30 min movie? ya know how they do with molt vids and stuff?
