• Error file corrupted or incompatible, cannot import files MP3 to Windows Movie Maker.

  Original title: Amazon MP3 in Windows Movie Maker import problems.

  Still have Windows XP.  Bought and download MP3s on Amazon, but is unable to import into Windows Movie Maker.  Says file corrupt (all of them) or is not compatible (MP3 should be).  I tried to convert it to WAV and WMA - still will not work.  Get desperate.  I would be very happy any help you could provide.  Thanks in advance.

  Experienced same problem with Amazon MP3 downloads.  Could not bring to import into Movie Maker.  Read somewhere to convert WMA of the song, but couldn't find out how to do this.  I wanted to download 3rd party software.  Had already created the CD with the songs that I wanted to use mm.   Ripped from this CD for PC with Windows Media Player, which gives you option to change the format.  Changed the format to WMA format and then imported into Movie Maker.  After all, hope this time it helps you, too.

• 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:

• 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.

  Windows Movie Maker uses. WAV file formats and Apple's iTunes use it. AAC format.
  You can also try saving iTunes songs in the. WAV format instead of Mp3 format and check.

• What are the most likely causes of accidents during the launch of Windows Movie Maker for execution of Windows XP?

  I've used Windows Movie Maker with success, but I have probably at least a year ago or more. I recently attempted to run and each attempt, all I am able to do is the following message:

  Windows Movie Maker has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

  If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost.

  Please tell this problem to Microsoft.

  We have created an error report that you can send to help us improve Windows Movie Maker. We will treat this report as confidential and anonymous.

  To see what date this error repot contains, click here.

  Error report:
  -modules (72) with their respective Base Image, size of the Image, Checksum, timestamp and Version information
  -(9) discussions with their Thread ID, information from the context stack &
  -Beaches in memory (21)
  -All content
  I also said that "the following files should be included in this error report: C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\7c7f_appcompat.txt.
  It is likely that the version of Windows Movie Maker that I have is corrupt and I just need to download the current version or updates? If yes where can I find an update online for the next version? :

  AppName: moviemk.exe AppVer: 2.1.4028.0 ModName: qedit.dll

  ModVer: 6.5.2600.5512

  It crash before its launch entirely?

  If it's not... go to... Tools. Options / Compatibility tab...

• Impossible to import music files into wondows movie maker. Help!

  Hi, im trying to import some .mp3 files in movie maker (with vista) and I get an error message saying that "it contains no valid audio data" and others that are important, I can't use as windows the song is more than 24 hours, when the song is actually 4 or 5 minutes. Why this is happening and how to fix it?

  Hi r.achtel,

  What is the format of the file that is having problems with the length of the song? This only happens with this specific file format?

  Please provide the complete error message you receive.

  Step 1: You can follow the procedure presented by John Inzer, MVP Saturday, August 8, 2009 17:50 in the link below:

  http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistamedia/thread/8e6841de-4EDB-4AF6-B179-3498b2461f6d

  Step 2: Run SFC (System File Checker) Scan  

  The System File Checker (SFC) utility allows administrators to perform an analysis of all protected resources to make sure they are the correct version. Whether SFC should find all incorrect versions in one of these protected resources, SFC will be replaced by the correct versions.

  You can still run a SFC scan on the windows vista computer. To run a scan suite SFC as follows:

  (a) click Start and in the start search bar type cmd, right-click on the command prompt icon in the box programs and then click Run as administrator.

  (b) at the command prompt type sfc/scannow , and then press ENTER.

  Apple's QuickTime .mov files are not compatible with Movie Maker.

  The following freeware can be used to convert the .mov
  file in a more convenient format:

  Pazera Free MOV to AVI Converter
  
  (click on the blue Download button not the Red)

  After you download... Open the program...
  (no installation required)

  Drag and drop one or several .mov files...

  Choose an output directory...

  Select... WMV AVI - Video Codec - version 1 (WMP 7)...

  Convert... (the button in the top tool bar)

  When the file is converted, you can change it in Windows
  Movie Maker. Just open Movie Maker and go... File /.
  Import into Collections and access your converted file.

  ===================================
  The most reliable audio format for importing into movie
  Maker is WMA.

  iTunes files need to be converted to a different format...
  WMA would be a good choice:

  Maybe the following freeware converter would be
  be worth a try:

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

  Free Mp3 Wma Converter
  http://www.koyotesoft.com/indexEn.html
  (Mp3, Wma, Ogg, Aac, M4a, Ac3, Ape, Flac, Wav)
  (FWIW if you install the converter, you can
  Uncheck offerings from Yahoo and Dealio) (also... you
  may want to uncheck the CD Ripper and the Easy
  MP3 Cutter)

  After installing the program... open and drag and drop
  your audio files on the main screen...

  Choose a backup folder (path of output). Or just leave...
  "Save to the directory the file" checked and the new
  files will be saved in the folder with MP3 files.

  Choose a format... WMA.

  Left, click Convert.

  The CD may need to be torn... and you can
  Choose WMA as the target format.
