Movie Edit Pro14 will not save my complete project

markarst wrote on 11/4/2011, 9:28 AM

Currently the program only saves the film portion of the project.  The individual pictures imported from a flash drive are not saved.  When I re-open the project it only loads the film portion and asks me to insert the flash drive and retry.  When I retry it loads the pictures from the flash drive and I get the completed project.  In the past it always saved the pictures imported from other sources.  Why is it not saving them now?  Additionally, it also does not save the pictures from "My Pictures" file.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

When MEP saves a project it saves links to all the necessary files. Not the files themselves. So I think previously you must have kept the files in their original locations. With your flash drive removed, MEP obviously can't find them.

Terry, thanks for your answer.  I completed my project by adding music and finishing my editing.  Then I burned it to a DVD disk before saving and losing the pictures.  It worked OK.
