  I have a problem with the publication in 23 minutes of video!

  I have the same problem with Windows Movie Maker with the same the same reasons. I check everything to make sure that the files are not corrupt or missing, I check that the destination folder has enough space, and make sure that the folder exists and still... IT DOES NOT PUBLISH!

• MS Movie Maker exports the Codec error on me and now does not work!

  My Vista's Home Premium Service Pack 1
   
  I was downloading MP4 fortunately making movies with MS Movie Maker then pvooop! MSMM no longer works.
  I just downloaded the WMM 2.6 and that crashes now in the same way.  WHY?
   
  When I try an import with the ASUS media and go to the folder that contains these files .mswmm files are not yet recognised by the Vista Movie Maker as being multimedia files, to see I choose all files. When I try to open them up to this moment there, I get the following error message:
   
  The file C:\Users\Don and Kim\Videos\Africa video Project\Drafts\Welcome Home\Clip 01_1\WH than Clip1.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.
   
  I tried to find the codecs but was put off by the fact that they were not genuine Microsoft and do not want to download something that will just make things worse.  Why should I have to download the risky codecs when I'm a real MS client?

  This happens to many people. Is there a bug in time in this SW?

  Hello

  You try to read the MSWMM file?

  A .mswmm file is not a movie... it's a project file. If you double click the .mswmm file it can open Movie Maker, but unless you have imported all the sources files it will not be usable.

  I recommend you go through the link below which includes a complete description on how to put a DVD into Windows movie maker project.

  ============================================
  You have posted in a forum XP and 2.6 MM does not work on XP.

  What version of Windows are you using?

  In any case... Movie Maker 2.6 is not compatible with MP4 files.

  Best bet would be to convert MP4 for the WMV files
  format before you import into Movie Maker.

  There are to many converters available on the net...
  some free, some details... the following freeware is
  just an example:

  and drag and drop your video files on the main screen.

  Or... Click left on the video button and navigate to the
  your video files are saved in the folder.

  Select (highlight) the files you want to import into
  Freemake and left, click on the button 'open '.

  When video files are imported into Freemake,
  On the left, click the WMV icon at the bottom of the screen.

  The 'WMV output settings' screen opens.

  Choose a folder ' save in ', so you can find the
  converted files.

  On the left, click the "Convert" button and wait for the files
  to convert.

  That should do it...

• Movie Maker 6.0 codecs

  I made movies using Windows XP Movie Maker. Now, I want to open them in Vista Movie Maker 6.0, but get an error message saying: there is no codec to do.
  How can I solve this problem?
  Thank you.

  Jaturi,
  These are the source files that I was referring to, however the .mswmm XP file is not an accountant with the Movie Maker Vista.  If you were to move to another XP machine, you will need to have the same directory structure in place for the source files in order to make it work.

• Windows movie maker and xvid codec!

  Hello

  I'm new to WMM, but no more contact.  I use WMM and after that I get the project done, I publish it and lower half is green and the top half is shrivelled.  I would be YouTube and google it and they said to uncheck the Xvid.  Then I go to tools, options, compatibility, then I try to uncheck and I do not have a XVID but I don't have a Divx, so I uncheck that but everything is done my files imported in the section overview of WMM go to a black screen with audio.

  I have another suggestion to go to start - all programs - xvid - (at this point, I downloaded it) but I can't open the program and they wanted me to go deconded converter (or something of the sort).  I'm trying this and divx, but they are not the same at the user level.  I have a product called 3ivx, but once again it is not the same on a user level!

  Suggestions, I just want to do the work!
