A recording I made myself is protected and won't convert?

Yeah, that's right...

Ok... Start from the beginning:

I wanted to upload stuff to myspace music, just to have my own stuff on my page. Well, I use movie maker to record music, but the mic port doesn't pick up anything but static... Even when I turn the volume all the way up, the sound of what I'm recording is barely a peep, even with mic boost turned on...

An alternate method I used to do it was first capture video using my video camera and my all in wonder, and then play the file and do the recording using "stereo mix"

Well, I did it once where I did it straight through the camera using the capture device instead of this two way thing, but now it appears everything I make in "narrate the timeline" is DRM protected... The thing is I converted files before, and they weren't protected... It's just been sometime in the last four days that all files made in movie maker are DRM protected... Even a file I just recorded off my video camera...

Why is everything on there protected now? Actually, I can't even record audio directly from the capture device anymore... So, I was able to do it before, but not now... I just need some simple MP3's made for putting my own crap on the myspace music... *twitch* I'm sick of these stupid problems... There is no reason for it to work differently now than it did just 4 days ago...

hmm, there should be an option somewhere to disable the protection, and it sounds like it could be the on the camera, maybe that you turned on accidently without noticing. especially if its jsut rescently started doing it. unless you've rescently updated the software.
