Windows 10: Video Editor in Photos app wont save unfinished projects and reopen with storyboard from...

Using windows 10 PC , open Photo app-video editor


new project selected, title made, and imported many pics and videos, started a story board with trimmed videos, there was no way to SAVE PROJECT so i backed it up to import later but that wont open and if i simply click on my project from Video Editor it open the project, Library with all video's, pictures etc and title in story board but the videos i trimmed yesterday wont open shows 'we cant find this file"


I am trying to find way to keep ie save project s i go to reopen and further edit.. I find it odd to have to save backup and try and reload it and it takes hours to open due to large Library. Help?


any help? please, i guess ill have to use different software because this isnt conducive to making a video unless its small and you finish all in one setting and create video before closing app..



MS needs to improve the video editor in window's 10 photo app. its horrible , should have an easy save project option so it can easily be opened and the story board not lost.



the old WMM was great, this is not..

Video Editor

I am using MS Video Editor and am working on a project that has both videos and .jpg pics. When I went to open the editor, the project would load, it shows the pics and videos I have loaded into the project, but the Storyboard wouldn't load. It looks
like the app is trying to load the storyboard, but after a few minutes, the app shuts down. I followed the steps online to repair and reset and have now lost my work, but I want to be sure the app is working properly and there are no issues with it before
I start and rebuild the project. Also, the app autosave my work, where does it put the saved Storyboard file?

 

Windows video editor problems - different video lenght between project library and storyboard

Good morning.

I have Windows 10 64 bits. I am using the windows video editor app.

I imported 2 videos to the project library. I added them to the storyboard and changed their speed and trimmed them to suit what I wanted.

After finishing the project and watching the final cut, I noticed that the second video was too short (0.47 seconds), so I wanted to fix it. Thinking that I might have trimmed it incorrectly I went to the project and storyboard and added from my library
the entire video again. This video was about 35 minutes. When I added it again, the storyboard showed the video as it was 0.47 seconds. I checked the speed just in case and it was x1, so it was not accelerated. It was just trimmed. I added the original video
to the project library just in case and use it again, but the same thing happened. The video got trimmed to 0.47 seconds once I added it to the storyboard.

I restarted the software to see if that would change anything, but it didn't.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. If I had to guess, I would say that somehow there was a time limit set for the entire video forcing things to be cut down. But this is not something that happened to me before and I made longer videos with no issue.

Any advice would be greatly welcomed!

Thank you,

Sincerely,

Florencia

 

My video project in photo app seems corrupt

I have a 50 minute video project containing photos and music. When I open the video project it lists the photos in the project library pane but the storyboard is completely blank.

I regularly use the backup project option thinking that if anything goes wrong, I could revert back to the latest backup but there seems to be no way of opening any of my vpb files. I have not Sync'd to OneDrive preferring to store everything local and using
my preferred cloud backup solution.

Have I lost nearly a weeks work creating this video?
