Hi there and welcome to TWC Forums!

First time hearing this, probably you had some Windows Update and it screwed your settings.. Maybe some info from here can help you: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/w...d-7fe4e6e6a586

Maybe some video codec is missing, or, some compatibility issue: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...6135409AAmHOAI
You can try to reinstall Windows Movie Maker, or check is there some update. This is more a problem related to your software than TATW, even though, it is strange that other factions work with no problem. Only Dwarves give you a problem?

You could post about this in The Basement, maybe some of the Tech Help guys could give you more info.

It is weird is that its only with the Dwarfs ,lag when recording and than the image goes all black when i try to render .

And what about the music problems with copyrights ?

**ElvenKind** · December 07, 2013, 07:53 AM

Music problem can be solved if you just turn it off in Sound settings.

You can ask this fellow for example ( LINK ) what is his experience with Youtube and copyrights, he uploaded couple of his videos too ( LINK ).

Have you tried with some other recording software? Fraps or similar?

He uses the sound and music with no problem,but is a minor youtuber ,smaller than me .I was hoping to know if someone ever had problems with it .
What i meant is if i could have problems with youtube ?I use fraps to record and movie maker to render.
