How to import a video from google on Windows Movie Maker when it's a MPG4 file and the film detects it as an audio file?

I cannot read the file as a video and only as an audio Director. How to change the file in one only that the manufacturer can read?

I cannot read the file as a video and only as an audio Director. How to change the file in one only that the manufacturer can read?

================================
Might be interesting to try to convert the .mp4 files
format .wmv before import into Movie Maker.

The following freeware can convert:

(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)

Format Factory
http://www.pcfreetime.com/
(FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
('all' boxes on the last screen)

After downloading and installing Format Factory...
Open the program and choose an output folder...
(this is where you will find your files when they are
converted)

Drag and drop your clips video .mp4 on the
main screen...

Select "all to WMV" / OK...

Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

That should do it...

  • Loading a video from facebook to Windows Movie Maker

    I tried to download a video from windows to facebook developer, but it gives an error message saying this is a bad image of facebook.  But I can't save it as anything other than a wmlp.  If I click on the facebook link in windows movie maker, it says that it cannot connect to facebook...

    Thank you

    Hi Marlene,

    Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll certainly try and help you in the matter of fixing.

    1. using Windows Movie Maker in Windows Live Movie Maker?

    2 when was the last time you were able to download the videos?

    3 did you a recent software or changes to the material on the computer?

    . WLMP files aren't really movies, this is why you cannot view it with something else. A .wlmp is a film project file, it is essentially the "recipe" to create the final product.

    I would also like to inform you that Facebook accept only certain types of file formats.

    You just need a step more in Movie Maker, you must publish the movie, which will create the AVI or WMV file or whatever the format you choose. Then, you can download the files. Try it and tell us if it helps.

    Through Facebook help page to learn more.

    If the problem persists, you can also publish the query to the Movie Maker forum.

    Hope this helps and let us know if you need help with Windows. We will be happy to help you.

  • Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.

    Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.  He plays in Windows Live Movie Maker and plays on my computer.  Cannot find the codec. Tried the solution to this same question and in help.

    Hello
     
    Some audio and video file formats are not supported in Windows Movie Maker and cannot be imported. However, if you have a video or audio file that is not taken care of, you can use a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by Windows Movie Maker, and then import the video file or an audio resulting in Windows Movie Maker. Some files also require you to install a codec before you can use the files in Windows Movie Maker.
    Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    made a dvd with windows movie maker home but now I want to change it, it is possible to re - import into windows movie maker on the dvd that I did?

    =====================================
    DVD files you need for editing are the
    . VOB files. Copy them to a folder on your hard drive
    drive. You can find them on the DVD in the VIDEO_TS
    folder.

    First... just try to rename one of the. VOB files to
    . MPG and see if it will matter in Movie Maker.
    If import works... drag the file to the timeline and
    Economy/publication it to .wmv or .avi format. Then...
    Re - import new video film for editing purposes.

    If this does not work... rename the file back to VOB and try
    convert the .wmv or .avi file using the following
    free Converter:

    SUPER © Simplified
    Universal Player Encoder & Renderer
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Super
    (the download mirror site is faster)

    (FWIW... it is always a good practice to create one)
    System restore point before installing new software)

    After installing the program GREAT... open...
    you will see two small circles at the top left
    corner of the screen... check the UPPER circle.

    Now... Drag/Drop your. VOB files in the current field.

    Output container... Choose wmv...

    Video scale size / no change

    Left, click the Encode button.

    Choice: A Simple Profile / OK...

    Wait...

    (FWIW... I have better luck with video if I'm not
    try to multi-task while a file is being converted)

    When the file is converted, you should find it in...
    Program Files / eRightSoft / Super / exit.

    Or... you can type... CTRL + T.. o open the Save
    Window and choose a backup folder.

    Hi Bauer327,

    iTunes music is in AAC format, which is not compatible with Windows media player. You may have to convert the format AAC to MP3 and then try to add it to windows media player.

    ITunes music sometimes has DRM protection. You will need to remove the protection license, and then try with windows media player.
