Movie Maker music problem
I added a music .m4a file to my project in movie maker, but when I play the video, no sound. I've checked the music volume and the volume of the program and the volume of the system, and it still does not play.
What should I do?
Might be interesting to try to convert the M4A file for the
Format WMA before you import into Movie Maker.
There are many programs that can do conversions...
The following freeware is an example...:
(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)
Format Factory
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
(the 'direct link' is faster)
(the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip<>
(FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
('all' boxes on the last screen)
First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
Drag FFSetup260.exe out of the folder
and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.
Next, after the download and installation of Format
Factory... you can open the program and
left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
"Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
(this is where you find your files after they)
are converted)
Drag and drop your M4A clips on the main screen...
Select "while"WMA"/ OK...
Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...
That should do it...

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 Live Movie Maker Music Sync problem
I use Windows Live Movie Maker on Vista. I think I'm having a problem syncing music with photos. I have a slideshow that I add music. Finally, I want to make a DVD. No problem initially adding pieces to the photo show. When I start at the beginning of a song it works OK. When I start towards the end of a song, however, there is no sound. In addition, sometimes the songs are shortened. Any suggestions?

Windows Movie Maker - music is not playing little matter what I do
I'm making a movie for my best friend for her birthday. I'm trying to use some of our favorite songs as background music. I'm going to and upload music and it is important, but when I put it in the movie and I play it, no music plays. I know that the film plays because my images in the film show the way they are supposed to. The volume on my computer is in place, and I went through all the audio levels and volume. I went upstairs, hit the clip and have a level of hihgh audio in the editing mode, I hit chronology and went to sound levels, and it is up. I even checked the properties of the songs I am trying to use, and they present themselves as a .mp3. When I went on google and other things to see what could be the problem, a page said that even if the music is in .mp3 form and other forms that work with Windows Movie Maker, they can simply not work. However, some of the songs I am using, I have used in other films I've done, and they do not work yet. So I don't understand what the problem is, and I've checked everything. Is there something that I don't check? Help, please! I really need to solve this problem, because I use movie maker for both school projects, and this movie would be amazing as a birthday gift.
Hi monkeygurlsurfs,
If you get the sound from your pc in other programs, the problem is not hardware. Did you of updates or Windows updates or any software installed since the last time that your audio worked? Usually, if the audio doesn't work, is it a device driver conflict. Make sure you have the updated driver for your sound card from the manufacturer's website. Also, check your device manager to see if the audio device appears normal (no yellow exclamation point). You can try to perform a check of the filesystem (CFS) to see if there are any corrupt files that Windows can correct:
The System File Checker tool:
To determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.
To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
1 click on Start -> click on all programs -> click on Accessories -> - click on command prompt, Select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue.
2. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
sfc/scannow .
3. when the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.
If the problem you are experiencing started occurring recently, you can use the System Restore tool. Using this tool, you can restore the computer to an earlier point in time. The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:
1. click on Start, type System Restore in the Search box, and then click System Restore in the programs list. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue.
2. in the System Restore dialog box, click choose a different restore point, and then click Next.
3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
4. click on Finish.
The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.
Try these procedures and let us know how you do. If you're still having problems, we will be happy to help you further.

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 startedFor 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. -

I can play the sound in media player and quicktime without problem, but when I try to put this file to my movie in movie maker, I get nothing. I have not changed the settings and everything is up-to-date. What would cause WLMM not playing MP3 music files converted with my movies? Any ideas?
What do you mean by any audio cdec. A codec package?
Reading your mail, you have a file you want to embed a movie? What kind of file is it music, if so what format?
