Failed to read a video created by Movie maker, photos have an error icon.

Original title: Movie maker...

Someone sent me a video with movie maker, but the photos have an error icon, so I can't see it? Ive tried everything...! Im not a computer person...:-/

Sounds like the file you received is just a. WLMP Project file...
This would be useful for a re-issue of the purposes and requires
copies of all the files (Photos, video clips, Audio clips) source...

Ask the sender to save the project in the. WMV video format
and send you a copy of this.

The following video tutorial explains how to save as a movie.

  • need help with video editing in Movie Maker

    I'm editing video on Windows Movie Maker and you want to cover a bite with a b-roll. Y at - it something to do this, and can it be done? I have not found a way to go beyond covering both the video and audio.

    Not sure what you mean when you say b-roll...

    Do you want the audio to continue while you add different content to the video track?

    If_yes_you can drag a second instance of the video Clip on the audio / music
    and then divide the video track if your can add video, pictures, clips etc. Of course
    If you add 5 seconds the new hardware... you will have to remove 5 seconds of original.

    The following tutorial was written for WIn XP, Movie Maker, but it can offer a few ideas:

    ===================================================

    For the timeline, drag a second copy of the video to Audio / Music
    follow and drag it left or right to align on the Audio track.

    Then right-click / mute the Audio track.

    Now, you can split the video anywhere you want... CTRL + L... and delete
    a section... then insert a Photo and give it the same length as the
    segment you removed.

    Here's another method:

    Split your video clip on each side of the area where will be the stills.

    Now... drag the part cut on the audio / music. BTW... If you want to
    to add a second 5 again... Remove 5 seconds of the video clip. (info below
    splitting if you need it)

    Drag your fixed shots to the timeline and drop it off at the place where
    you have deleted the video.

    The Audio clip on the audio / music can be dragged to the right or left to
    adjust its position.

    More information about the Division...

    "Split a Clip in MM2.1.

    Drag the audio clip on the timeline.

    Play the video/audio by clicking on the 'Play' button under the display screen.

    You will see the playback indicator (vertical line), advancing through the
    timeline.

    Click on the "Pause" button at the location where you want to cut and type...
    CTRL + L or click the "Split" button at the bottom of the display screen.
    (you can also make adjustments by dragging the playback indicator)

    Make splits as much as you want and remove unwanted in law clips
    Click on / delete.

    HighMAT is obsolete now and there is very little
    DVD players that recognize the format.

    If you want to create a video CD (VCD) or a video

    in the. Format WMV movie to a folder on your hard drive.
    Then you could play it in Windows Media Player and
    Share it with others.

  • Please help try to copy the video in windows movie maker to burn to dvd

    First of all Hello, this is my first but I have read a lot of posts and tried to figure it out, but think I made things worse, I have a dell inspiron 15 something and a panasonic HDC-HS20, I had to reinstall windows and all pilots who, I think I did as when I put my camcorder software I began to have problems He says not to approve a 64-bit program and then it worked for a while then kept computer crashing then a black screen at start up and finally when I tried to burn videos to dvd, it says that I don't have a dvd player/burner, so I will now try to transfer my videos through Director of windows I downloaded everything it says that I need and it transfer files, but when I add them to movie maker it shoes a yellow triangle with a black exclamation point in each sinus and when I press on the bar moves along to play, but no images so im assuming that he does not, is it possible to do what I do, or I need to reinstall my software of camcorder and just hope that it recognizes my drive? any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Sorry, I can't say I have now added my software that came with the camcorder, the software is called HD writer AE 1.0 and checked the compatibility of my product with microsoft and it says it's ok with a 64-bit, recharged even when software and when I click to create media that he says again in writing destination @cannot find accessible driver , so I looked through articles where dvd burner is not recognized by other programs, but he told me to go in accessories of control, performance etc. and do a right-click on the HKEY CURRENT user but it says nothing about the registry keys, it is said by default with a symbol beside him ab and under said data not defined

    Thank you

  • Why can't I capture video with windows movie maker?

    When I try to capture video using the option "capture from video device" a window appears and says 'the file C:\Documents and Settings\extra\My Documents\My Videos\untitled_0004.wmv is not indexed and cannot be imported.' every time. How can I stop this so I can capture videos?

    It seems that the file is saved on your
    hard drive in your videos folder. What happens if you open
    Movie Maker and go to... File / import into Collections...
    and find and select this video clip?

    If you still receive the "not indexed" dialog box the. WMV
    file is possibly corrupted.

    In Movie Maker, it may help to go to... Tools / Options /.
    Compatibility tab and disable all filters. If it's
    no help... try on the left by clicking on the button restore all default settings.

    Sometimes one. WMV file can be repaired by opening
    in a conversion program and convert to WMV...
    Seem redundant, I know, but it will create a new version
    of the file, this might work.
