• Windows Movie Maker & DVD Maker stop responding when you import a .avi file

  Help, please.

  The two Windows Movie Maker DVD Maker & allow me to import .avi files I ask, but then I get a message that the program has stopped working. I have Windows Vista Home Premium and I a novice in computer science.

  Thank you.

  Tommy

  Hello

  ·        Have you been able to import before avi files to your Windows movie maker and the creation of DVD?

  ·        You are able to import another file without any problem format?

  Try to import another file type (format) and check if the problem persists.

   

  Step 1:

  Damaged codec is often a cause of crashes with Windows Movie Maker and Windows DVD Maker.

  If possible, use a program to convert your Windows Media movies first and then try to import it.

  Step 2:

  If the movie maker was working properly before, I suggest you to reset the windows movie maker settings. Follow the steps in the article mentioned below.

  More than likely you are using one or more incompatible source files...
  or the project may be too complex for your system resources.

  See the following article:

  Movie Maker - problem solving-
  "Can't save a movie."
  http://www.Papajohn.org/MovieMaker-issues-CantSaveMovie.html

  Might be worth trying to convert your video files in .wmv format
  before you import into Movie Maker.

  The following freeware can convert:

  Restore point before installing software or updates)

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

  Several formats are apparently compatible with
  Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

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

• Windows Movie Maker DVD will not play in my DVD of Emerson drive

  Burned DVD won't play in my dvd player. I worked on it for three days. I burned a movie on a dvd + rw disc. The film will play on my computer but won't play in my dvd player. I get "Disk error" on the screen and the disc may not have playback function. What is the function of reading and how I can change my download? I lived all the concepts of self-help, but none of them fit to my problem. I have Windows Vista Premium and have tried using Windows DVD Maker. I called the manufacturer of my drive and they said I need to finalize the disc. How can I do to do this with Windows DVD MAKER?  I read articles about video editing, but when I went through the steps that I wasn't even offered the possibility to publish the video. My brother uses the same discs when burning movies and I have no problem playing his films. What I am doing wrong?

  Hi BrookeMcCulley,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

  On some of the DVD player, you will not be able to play DVD + RW discs.  You will need to use DVD + r (read DVD) drive and check if it works.

  You can also try to use another brand of DVD disc and check.

• WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER MUSIC PROBLEM

  USING WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER, WHEN I TRY TO IMPORT THE MUSIC, I GET THE MESSAGE THAT IT COULD NOT BE IMPORTED.  HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

  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

  You can import files with the following file name extensions into Windows Movie Maker to use in your project:

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

  • Audio files: .aif, .aifc, .aiff, .asf, .au, .mp2, .mp3, .mpa, .snd, .wav, and .wma

  • File Picture: .bmp, DIBs, .emf, .gif, .jfif, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg, .png, .tif, .tiff and .wmf

  If you want to import a file into Windows Movie Maker that has a different from those indicated above, extension in the file type list, select all files. Windows Movie Maker can import most file types, but not all types of files do not work when you try to use them to make a movie.

• Windows Movie Maker, a problem of sound with the "Split"?

  Well, that makes me extremely crazy because I'm unable to download videos on youtube. So I have this video which lasts 7 minutes. I decided to split the video into two (at halfway accurate). Then I inserted a photo in the middle of the video. The problem here is that after the image in the Middle, the second part of my video plays fine except for the sound (my voice). He decided to play my voice from the first part of the video response and bacsically everything for the second clip! I tried everything in my power to make it work. I even tried to cut the second part, while he was alone and recording, but guess what? He still played my voice of the first part of the video! It is making me upset moajorly. I also have the updated version if you were wondering. It is much too difficult to work with, especially since I'm used to the other older, so I think I'm missing a certain button or article or something. I don't even know. So my question is, how to split a video by half, add a picture and make sure that my voice is match with my mouth & video. Moreover, I do not have voice on it or add audio. Quite simply, I filmed a video of me talking.

  Since you use Movie Maker 6 and not Live Movie Maker, what follows
  tutorial composed originally for XP, Movie Maker, you should get started

  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.

• Windows Movie Maker, backup problem

  A film using a Canon's HD camcorder. I changed the file types of. MTS of. AVI in order to import clips movie maker for editing. I've finished editing and press on save to my computer and I get pop ups saying memory could not be read or memory cannot be written. I can't save it as one of the options listed with movie maker. Can you tell me how to save without having to re - edit all the elements together, it took 17 hours. Please help, I need for a school project. Thank you.

  FWIW... 17 hours is a time if this project can
  be too big or too complex for your system resources.
  Creation of several small projects may be the answer.

  http://www.myvideoproblems.com/tutorials/MovieMaker/SplitComplexProject.htm

  Also before you import into film WMV conversion
  Maker can be better than the conversion to AVI.

  Try to go to... Tools / Options / Compatibility tab...
  and left click on the "All default settings" button.

  If you still cannot save... try to save in the DV - AVI format:
  (remember the file size will be huge and it would be better)
  If you do not have multitasking so that the file is saved)

  To save a DV - AVI movie file...
  (and other options)
  Type of... CTRL + P (or go to...) File / save movie file)
  to open the wizard movie recording.
  Choose... My computer.
  Next /.
  Enter a name and a location.
  Next /.
  Show more choices.
  Other parameters.
  Open the window of the droplet and choose... DV - AVI.
  Next /.
  Wait while the movie is saved.
  Finishing...

  Good luck...

• I do not understand why my creation of windows DVD burn only 1% of one of my windows movie maker projects.

  Hello

  I made a video of my Windows Movie Maker project and have tried several times to burn through my Windows DVD Maker with the burning of 7% max.  After that, it gets stuck.  However, my other several attempts were a result of burning of 1% and it stuck.  I've left overnight to see if it was the capacity but the next day it is still 1%.  I did other projects without problem.  It is only with this project.  I don't understand why it won't let me if I used Windows movie maker without problem.  The video was originally in AVI, but I was able to convert a 3GP using dvdvideosoft software. Then only, I have done a project using my Windows Movie Maker.  The full minutes of this project is 90 minutes, while the DVD that I want to burn it holds 150 minutes.  Can you help me?  Tried several things and can not find the solution.  I don't know that there must be a solution.

  What or who persuaded allows you to convert AVI, which is supported by Windows, to 3GP, which is not supported by Windows?

  If you must, convert AVI to WMV format.
  Bypass Windows Movie Maker.
  Add the WMV video in Windows DVD Maker directly.
  Try to burn now.

• 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.
