Jumpy video but smooth preview

I have a Photo Story 3 show all set. WHen I preview it, it has smooth
transitions. However, when I make it into a WMV file, the transitions are
jumpy/jerky. A pain to watch.

Can anyone help me??

Thanks.

===================================
Do all other video clips play smoothly?

Maybe the project is too complex...too many
transitions, too much motion, too many pictures.

Maybe you have an issue with your video card...
as a test...it may be worth a try to reduce your
Graphics Hardware Acceleration. The following
article offers instructions...scroll down to:
Hardware Acceleration.

If reducing the Acceleration helps, you probably
need to update your video driver. After you give
it a try...you can move the slider back to Full.

I can't help, but I've seen a different but similar problem:
the preview and .wmv both have smooth pans and zooms, but when
the .wmv is encoded to MPEG2 for a DVD, there are occasional
"hitches" in the animation--for several different encoders!
