• How to import MPEG-4 files in Windows Movie Maker in Windows Vista?

  Windows Media Player 11 recognizes and plays MPEG-4 great but WMM does not recognize them.  I would like to import some MPEG-4 files in Movie Maker and work with them - is there a codec or something that allows this?

  I'm sure I can find a software to convert to MP4 format that mm will recognize, but if possible, I would just skip the conversion step and work with MP4 directly in MM.

  Thank you!

  the best would be to convert it to .wmv.

• How to save a project created in Windows movie maker on a flash drive in. MSWWW format instead of. WMV format?

  If I understand well a previous answer, reinporting a project as mswmm allows rediting if the files are still on the computer.  Also, I am inclined to believe that the files remain available in the pane movie maker collections.  Am I wrong?

  > How to save a project created in Windows movie maker
  > to a flash drive in. MSWWW format instead of. WMV format?
  ===========================================
  When you save the project file... go to... File / save project as...
  Give the file a name (Summer Vacation.mswmm) and choose
  your save location.

  All the files (Photos, video clips, Audio clips) source should
  appear on the USB key and if you have the intention of re - edit the
  project on another computer... it should have the same
  version of Movie Maker. Sometimes a later version of the film
  Machine to will open the files but sometimes won't.
  ===========================================
  > If I understand an earlier answer, reinporting a project
  > mswmm format allows rediting if the files are still on the
  > computer.
  ===========================================
  This is correct. MSWMM is a Movie Maker project file which is
  is useful for a re-release in Movie Maker. And... the source files
  (Photos, video clips, Audio clips) should be available in the
  original locations...
  ===========================================
  > Also, I am inclined to believe that the files remain available in the
  > movie maker collections pane.  Am I wrong?
  ===========================================
  When a. MSWMM file project opens the thumbnails...
  remain available in the Collections of Movie Maker component as
  as long as the Source, the files are available in the places that they
  were imported initially from.

  If the source files have been moved, renamed, deleted or are
  unavailable, the thumbnails in the component Collections
  Movie Maker displays red Xs and the project cannot be
  edited.

  If the source files are still available... it is possible that you may
  Right-click the red Xs and navigate to the current location of the
  the source files and restore the path.

• Impossible to import PowerPoint file in Windows Movie Maker - codec error

  I am tryping to import a PowerPoint file into Windows Movie Maker to burn it to a DVD, but I get a codec error

  Cannot import the file C:\Users\Karen\Documents\2009 Fundraiser\Yellow Rose 2009.ppt MWP because the necessary codec to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to re-import the file.

  How can I find this codec and install it?

  Blond highlights Hello,

  Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Forum.  Usually, when you try to play a video in Media Player if you do not have the right codec Media Player will automatically download and install the correct codec if it is available.  Since this is a Power Point presentation has video embedded in it?  If so, try to play the video file outside the Power Point presentation and Media Player will go out and get the correct codec if you are connected to the internet.  Here is an article from the Microsoft Knowledge base that explains Media player codecs and configuration to automatically download:

  I hope this information is useful.

  Thank you

  Watch the video file. The last 3 letters represent the file format.

  Windows Movie maker only supports the following video file formats:

  Video files: .asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

  If yours is not on the above list, Movie Maker will have probel play.

  In this case, you will have to google for a free video converter and change the format of your video file to WMV. WMV format is the most reliable format for Windows. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

• Download iTunes files in Windows Movie Maker on a downloaded CD?

  Hey,.

  I'm doing a movie in WMM, and I tried to go into iTunes and import the music on a CD that I had already imported into iTunes. He gave me something the codec is not installed.

  For the record: I have already read the answer of Yes, and it does not help me because it was things I had not bought and downloaded from iTunes. These songs, I am trying to import came from a CD, I bought in a store and jumped in my computer. Any help? I'm relatively stupid when it comes to such things, so it would be easy, plain-English-non-tech-chamois terms useful.* *.

  Thanks in advance! (:

  Hi, pepper,
   
  1. you try to import the music from iTunes to WMM (Windows Movie Maker)?
   
  The files you want to import into WMM should be supported by WMM else, you will get this error message.
  To better understand about codecs, see this link "Codecs: frequently asked questions": http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Codecs-frequently-asked-questions
  You can also use Windows Media Player to copy songs from an audio CD, check out this link for more information: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Rip-music-from-a-CD
   
  To convert the files into iTunes to the WMM file format supported, see this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550

• M30X MultiDrive won't burn a DVD from Windows Movie Maker

  Hello

  My MultiDrive M30x will not burn the DVD from Windows Movie Maker and other applications.

  I also had problems with burning CDs (unbranded) of Windows XP, built in utility.

  The multidrive has problems with cheaper brand discs?

  Just to note,
  The laptop was to support guys three times until various issues.
  (1) the hard drive failed.
  (2) the multidrive has failed.
  (3) the motherboard replaced, due to power outages, it would not charge the battery, or recognize that the AC adapter is plugged.

  Note: The hard drive, not the fan made the most noise in mine!

  Thank you

  Hello

  As far as I know (i.e. pre-installed burning software Save now, drag-and - drop) disabled the option of Windows XP burning. In this case if you want to use the Movie Maker or Windows media player burning option, you need to activate this possibility.
  Please, go to the properties of the drivers (right click). Please select the recording tab. CD recording option on this drive must be marked.
  I use the software Nero burning and in my opinion he of one of the best burning programs. In addition, you should try different manufacturers CD/DVD because some CD and DVD is not compatible with some readers. Check the TDK CD and DVD. I never had no problem with these media.

  Best regards

  Best bet IMHO... create new projects, or install earlier versions of Movie Maker.

  Everything simply because a video playing in Windows Media Player is
