• Windows Movie Maker on Vista

  I did a movie on Windows Movie Maker last night. Then trying to open the project on the SAME computer I get this message: the file C:\Users\Owner\Videos\LongHardRide2016.MSWMM cannot be imported because the codec required 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.

  Movie maker is at version v2.6 for vista, so that follow updates. If it is in order, your best bet is

  to install windows media encoder 9 series, as well as its utility. The encoder can convert audio and video, more

  recording, etc. Its utilities are still available through microsoft downloads, but is not the encoder, youre web use

  browser for that. In addition, microsoft has no download "codec" for vista, xp has them, but not vista

• Streaming problems within Windows Live Movie Maker in Vista

  I have Vista Service Pack 2. I imported my Toshiba Camileo S20 camcorder .avi files in Windows Live Movie Maker.  I have problems with the broadcasting project.  The voice and video are not synchronized.  Also the video hangs during playback.  I don't know why this has started happening since I use this software for a few years and have the same computer, Windows updated constantly, and have never had this problem before.

  When I save the movie and Windows DVD Maker allows you to create and burn a movie to a DVD, the film is not too clear during playback on my TV.

  I'm not too knowledgeable about the software verbage and what are some programs, for example, "codec".  So if you can help me solve my problem in simple terms I would appreciate it.

  Thank you for your help.

• in Movie Maker codecs

  I try to use movie maker, and he repeated to me that I need a codec to be able to open the file which actually happens to be an avi file. I tried to download the codec installation package and cannot do anything with the files. I also changed the options to automatically download codecs yet still cannot open the file.

  Movie Maker has compatibility with most problems
  AVI files... best bet would be to convert the file to the
  format .wmv before importing.

  There are many programs that can do conversions...
  The following freeware is an example...:

  First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the

  and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

  Next, after the download and installation of Format

• Is what camcorder compatible with Windows Movie Maker on Vista Home Premium?

  I'm in a bit of a dead end.  I have to make and edit a film which is mostly clips stored in Windows Movie Maker on my old computer which has VISTA Home Premium/64 bit.

  In most old clips (that are compatible), I have to shoot some new images.  My recent purchase of a Sony camcorder does not work.

  Can anyone recommend a camcorder that will have files that are compatible with Windows Movie Maker?  My Sony clips seem impossible to move outside the Sony software so I can't convert them.

  I'm ready to buy a new camera.  I just need something compatible.  Would even buy a used one on E - Bay as long as it will work with the old Windows Movie Maker.

  Can anyone help?

  If its on a memory card to buy a card reader, if you do not. Or if you connect the cable it should allow you to see what on it

  Most camcorders these days support MP4. If it is HD. The new Panasonic cam I have here, I think that it records in MP4. Since it is 1080 p

  The old who is also Panasonic may have been old, (it is not HD), but it had a firewire port.

  But I think that it saved videos like WMV (I mean I don't know that it loaded in Movie maker, when I got it)

  You will have either to buy a program that supports MP4, or use a video conversion program and convert to WMV

• 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

• Windows Movie Maker for Vista crashes when the publication of film to 99% all 5 remaining seconds

  I am running Vista and have tried to publish a movie of 2 hours on my pc using a number of different formats.  Still, it hangs at 99% with 5 seconds remaining.  I have 800 GB free on my hard drive, a quad core cpu and 8 GB of RAM.  Any help to do this would be greatly appreciated.  Movie Maker version is 6.0 (Build 6001:SP1).

  Thanks Matt.

  I checked my Windows logs and found no errors.
  Then, I took my video and remove all but 1 minute and tried to create a movie.  It worked.  Then I went back to the original big movie I tried to save and delete the last two seconds of him.  Who did the trick.  I have no idea how the end a few images to an existing sequence of wmv could spoil of Movie Maker, but the problem is now resolved.

  Thank you for guiding me to look at the error logs.  He started me on the right track for the removal of the error.

• How can I fix error for the movie maker codecs/message?

  I get an error oxc946001e @ Director on a downloaded video clip. I can see the video fine on cyberlink... The extension on my clip is VOB... How can I fix?

  I can only imagine that you are using Vista Movie Maker 6?

  VOB is a file copied from a DVD-video... He will probably need
  to convert to WMV prior to that will work in Movie Maker.

  One thing you might try is to rename the file from. VOB. MI/GAL.

  If it works... do dragging to the timeline and immediately publish (Save)
  in the. Format WMV or DV - AVI to a folder on your hard drive, then
  Re-import the file converted for editing.
