So I have been filming some stuff with my t2i and went to make an edit using windows movie maker. So I encoded all of my files from .MOV to .AVI using mpeg streamclip. Took those files and imported them into Windows Movie and I edited my video, when I was basically finished I hit save to my computer. I tried to finish the movie, but then an error popped up that says "Windows Movie Maker cannot save the movie to the specified location. Verify that the original source files used in your movie are still available, that the saving location is still available, and that there is enough free disk space available, and then try again."

Anyone know how to fix this???

if you're shooting with a t2i you should probably invest in some better editing software..even if you just torrent it, you wont get the best results out of movie maker.

what i need to do is invest in a new computer, mine is terrible. For my next edit I will use my sisters mac, but i am stuck with this computer for now because I transfered all of the files on to this computer and it will not let me transfer them back on to my camera, or onto a flash drive. I am trying to download adobe premiere right now so we will see if that works.

do exactly what it says... make sure you didnt move any of the original files, that you have permission to save wherever youre trying to save the video, and that you have enough space on your hard drive. im guessing its the hard drive space

I did all this, and the video is only 2 minutes so it shouldn't take up my hard drive. I think one of the video files might have been encoded wrong, its just stupid f'n windows movie maker.
