  Yes, google for a FREE audio converter. Change your itunes songs or songs that are not supported by the manufacturer of film in MP3, WMA or WAV... mp3 and wma are more preferable. WAV format is too large file size, not practical.
  Then import the song to movie maker. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

• I imported the pic of a flash drive files in Movie Maker. When I return to my project overnight the pictures do not exist.

  I work in Windows Movie Maker.  I imported the pic of a flash drive files.  When I return to my project overnight the pictures do not exist.   They don't last load because the 'not found' files, mysteriously images loaded back up everything.  I have no idea of what I did, but they found themselves back much to my relief however, today, I'm not so lucky.    Tonight, it's the same thing, but the only way I can get the pictures if I find the missing photo 1 by 1 by right click and search for my flash drive.  I have my flash drive in my computer when I started working on my project again. I put a dvd set for my nursery and I have many many photos and I can't click on each of them.  Please give me some useful advice soon so I'm not crazy!  School is out next week! I know that there must be an easy fix.

  Thank you very much :)

  will be red Xs in the Movie Maker Collection

  Movie Maker has problems with the .mpg files... best bet would be
  to convert the .mpg files before importing the .wmv format.

  Several formats are apparently compatible with

  Photos - bmp
  Video - wmv or dv - avi
  Music - wma, wav, .wmv

• How can I get a clip of a short vob file in movie maker

  A few years ago, I converted a few cassettes vhs on dvd. One disc has a rare tv clip I want to put on youtube but when I put that particular file in Movie Maker, it appears as being only 60 seconds of time. Jump forward on the timeline, I see all 30 minutes of material is there. Is this some kind of glitch in MM? Other files on the disk appear normal.

  It seems that each of the disks I burned one or two files like this. Is there anything I can do to fix the length of these?

• Audio files in Movie Maker

  Some of the audio files in my Windows Movie Maker do not play, but some are, no clue as to what is happening? I checked the volume on two silent audio and they are so full, but still not issuing. The files themselves play fine on Media Player.

  You may have a compatibility issue with some
  audio files.

  Just because a file is played in Windows Media Player
  does not ensure that it will be compatible with
  Movie Maker.

  Several audio formats are apparently compatible
  with Movie Maker, but the most reliable choice
  are .wma or .wav

  Conversion of files to the WMA format before

• import files into a table

  Hello
  
  I need to import files into a table from a database. After importing I must record in another table, the name of the file, the current date and the State of import (0 - import ok, 1 error import etc.). All files has the same structure but different file names.
  
  Is there any possibility of cycle in the folder, import a file in the table and after that save filename to another table with the State of importation?
  
  Thanks in advance
  
  Gabi

  Hi Gabi,.

  Assuming that you have a set of files (.txt, .csv,...) in a folder with the same structure, but different file names.

  Solution:

  Get all the names of files and insert these names in a table temporary temp_filenames (filename, status).
  with the status of 'R' (walking).

  Delete No .txt temp_filenames .csv file names (for examle if no void / files / other file names are here).

  Add a v_filename variable (select * from temp_filenames where status 'R' limit 1)

  Create datastore source with the name of varaiable (#v_filename).
  (remove file extensions, the spaces between the names of files... all by creating tables in DB,)
  for this, you can use a variable more / apply your logic)

  the flow of processes in a loop (make sure whetehr the count is greater than 0 for the variable)
  If its gerater trhan 0 then processes the file with #v_filename.
  Once the upadate process successful status as a ' other (completed) 'E' (error)

  This will make a loop for all files in your folder

  Once the process is complete, you can insert the status of paper in your journal table looking into temp_filenames.
  Then delete all temporary tables you created

  Please let me know if you need further help with this.
