Movie Maker sees video as audio

Whenever I have put a video in my movie maker, it reads as an audio NOT video. How can I change this? A kind of encoder? ... Thank you

Some formats are not totally compatible with the film
Creator... to convert the video to the. WMV format
may be the solution.

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 video clips on the main screen...

Select "all to WMV" / OK...

Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

That should do it...

Good luck...

  • Movie Maker no video or audio in MPEG clip imported after you disable filters

    There is no video or audio in the clip imported (to import videos) and I tried to disable the four filters in the Compatibility tab (Cyberlink Audio, AVI decompressor, Cyberlink MPEG-2, Cyberlink MPEG-1) in the tools. The parameter default NTSC in the Advanced tab is selected and has not changed. When I tried to connect the camcorder directly to the computer and Movie Maker "import from digital video camera", the message says that a compatible device is not detected (Sony handycam). Any other suggestions?

  • Impossible to import a clip in Windows Live movie maker or regular Windows movie maker avi video

    Original title: Director of windows

    I can't import a clip avi video in windows movie maker direct or regular windows movie maker. Only the audio comes through. If I have the video edited and produced in other video software, such as cyberlinkthen the video and audio will come by for me to change. I am able to import it into windows movie maker. I use vista 64-bit. What should I do to make this work? Do I need a special codec? I use a hp pavilion p6140f computer

    Michael

    Hi Michael,

    1. This only happens with a particular file type?

    This seems to be a codec problem. Some files supported by Windows movie maker again you will need to install a codec before you can use the files in Windows Movie Maker.

    You can use your favorite search engine to download and install a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by 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.

  • In Movie Maker, capture video, I hear no audio

    Not sure this is the right forum - questions about the place where questions MM led me here.

    One, when I capture video, I hear no audio.  How can I get it to play the audio during capture?  I'm probably stupid but not stupid enough to not to increase the volume.  Two, it is possible to capture audio only - or perhaps extract audio from the video?  I need audio segment, but can only capture video with audio.  Bonus points: MM is on Windows 7, right?

    Thank you!

  • No video shows when you import clips in movie maker mpeg video

    I am running xp home with service pack 3 installed. When I try to import mpeg movie clips in moviemaker now only the audio shows, before they imported correctly.  I've done this before and the films I've done import and play very well, but when I try to import clips I origionaly used to create the film there is no video. the clips play fine in media player, but not in movie maker. What has changed.

    Hi, Johns53,

    Have you tried to uninstall Service Pack 3, restart the computer and restart the clips?  They work then?

    If so, reinstall the SP3 and perform the following steps

    Visit the site of the manufacturer of the video card driver updates

    Open the Device Manager

    Right-click on the video driver and select Update driver

    Right click on the driver and select uninstall

    Restart the computer

    Windows will reinstall the drivers

    Clips of retry.  They work now?

  • Windows Movie Maker spans video

    I use Windows Movie Maker 5.1 on XP.

    When I import a video portrait in WMM, it spans the video to fill the preview, making the video look "fat". When I save the movie, the output seems tense.

    Is it possible to maintain the original dimensions of the video, thus leaving a black space on the sides of the video?

    Did some research and it helped:

    It turns out that wmm does not maintain the proportions. At first, I imported my wmv video and turned using wmm, but it was tense. So I went and shot using another program to make potrait. When I imported it again, it is also tense. It turns out that that's the long way round. Sorry if I did not mention the full detail. I used the effect of 'spin the right person' and it worked.

  • Need help as soon as POSSIBLE! I can't turn the volume on Windows Live Movie Maker and video is slow

    I'm reading a file .mov on Windows Live Movie Maker 2011 Version (Build 15.4.3555.0308). I had to install the media player codec pack (version 4.2.3.1001 the file) in order to get the video to play on WLMM and he finally managed to where I could see the video, but now will not play sound. I went into Edit and the Volume of the video and mute is activated, but he won't let me not reactivate the sound by clicking on it. The scroll bar can slide backwards, but does not make a difference. Already, I went and "repaired" Windows Live Movie Maker in my programs. The video has sound when he played on Windows Media Player isn't the video or the speakers.

    In addition, the video is very slow and jumpy. It's almost as if it was in slow motion or something.

    Help, please!  I need to have this video made as soon as POSSIBLE. I need to be able to start editing here tomorrow!

    Thank you

  • Windows movie maker problem: video cut or turns off

    I have windows vista on my computer and I tried to use the windows movie maker program to make a music video.  the video I got was originally in MP4 format so I used Format Factory to convert WMV (I also did AVI).  for some reason when I'm working on the video images goes off and I can't see the stage.  Sometimes I get the picture but most of the time I don't have.  I also tried to use AVI format but the problem is always the same.

    I read and I think it would be that the resolution could be the problem, if so, how can I change that on Format Factory?
    It could also be that Format Factory is perhaps not good enough, are there other free conversion programs I could use?
    other than that, I don't know why the image freezes (music plays again)
    any kind of help will be greatly appreciated!

    Format Factory is a good converter but I also

  • Windows Movie Maker: Small video and green screen

    I've been taking videos on Movie Maker for quite awhile and I've never had a problem until today. I've got this show that I have edited. The preview reading is perfectly fine and everything works normally and then I publish. Publication is going smoothly, but something must of happened between this amount of time, because the video is now scrunch all upward on the top (its dimensions are now all distorted to extend over the screen to halfway) and on the bottom half there is just a green screen. It occurs only after the publication. I tried to change an option that I use when publishing... did the same thing. Then I thought maybe it was some kind of title effect I used... it's not. I tried to delete all the effects on my thing and editing like that... This isn't the problem. The only thing that could be a problem, it's that it's a different file, then I usually use I think that... I had like a torrent file, but when I look, it works well and is not. So I do not understand... any suggestions?
