(Version 2.0, free download). It has significant enhancements. I did some quick experimenting and found that you can easily mute the audio, and you can also cut the audio and paste it in the Audio/Music soundtrack in a different time sequence from the video clip. Here's what I did: 1. Added the video clip 2. Clicked the "+" at the right of "Video" (on the timeline) which separates the video and audio tracks. 3. Right click the audio segment and choose Copy. 4. Right click the audio segment again and choose Mute 5. Right click on the Audio/Music track and choose Paste 6. Drag the audio clip where you want it in the timeline. Works slick as can be... in version 2.0 that is. Good luck... >>> [log in to unmask] 10/27/2003 3:05:13 PM >>> --- Forwarded Message from Jack Burston <[log in to unmask]> --- >Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2003 19:21:31 -0400 >From: Jack Burston <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Windows-XP Movie Maker >To: Calico discussion list <[log in to unmask]>, Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum <[log in to unmask]> >User-Agent: Microsoft-Entourage/10.1.4.030702.0 ------------------ Please excuse the cross posting Dear Colleagues, I'm writing to see if those of you with experience using Windows-XP Movie Maker can help me out. Specifically, I would like to know how to strip the sound track from a video clip so that it can be used as the starting point for student dubbing activities. I've tried clicking the Mute Video option when recording a new audio track, but with no effect. Setting the volume up to maximum for the audio track didn't work either. I also ran into another problem when I added a voice recording to a video clip that didn't have a sound track: when the movie played the voice ran at twice normal speed. If anyone can enlighten me about the use of the Movie Maker I would be most obliged.
