No video playback in windows movie maker, Windows 7.

my camera supports MP4 format and all of a sudden now when I download, read, I still get audio, but only a black screen where the videos used to display. Help? ideas?

Dang, this no longer works. Thanks for the idea and the effort.

====================================================
A last possibility...

May be useful to search to try your computer support sites
manufacturer or manufacturer of the video card for an update
driver video...

Verify that the video driver is problematic is to reduce
hardware graphic acceleration: If this improves the issue...
install an updated video driver may be the solution. Acceleration
may be returned in full once installed the updated driver.

Sometimes... Windows Update will install a video driver that is not
as long as it is compatible with your system than you already had. In the present
case, the solution would be to back to the previous driver:

    1. What is the operating system installed on your computer?

    I suggest that you copy the video from the CD on the hard drive of the computer and then import it to create DVDs. Browse the CD and locate the video, copy it to your disk (computer) hard, and then try to import.

  • Choppy video playback in Windows Media Center (Windows 7) WTV

    I recently experienced a video playback jerky with windows media center.  Sometimes the recorded TV (WTV format) play very well for about 2-3 minutes until the video playback is very jerky (probably about 5 to 10 frames per second instead of the usual 30-60 fps).  The audio is not again normally.  Windows Movie maker also plays choppy video (Windows Media Player seems to work very well).  The main menu of Windows Media Center, itself becomes generally restless slow when I'm scrolling autour options, even when there is no video game in the background.  Video streaming on the Internet and DVD seems to play fine on Windows Media Center, and I can even stream HD video without problem.  I also know that this isn't a problem receiving the TV tuner since I test with the video recorded previously.  I bought my computer in June 2009 with Windows Vista and upgrade to Windows 7 a few months later.  Everything worked perfectly well until recently.

    I tried to update my video card drivers, reallocation of Windows Media Center to a task of "high priority" to improve performance, the RAM Cache to improve the performance, my graphics card setting to low quality setting to have superior performance to compensation.  I even tried to reinstall Windows Media Center, reinstall Windows Media Player and the restoration of my entire computer to a State a few months in the past where the problem was not intervened.  The memory usage seems OK too (I have 6 GB).  Basically, I don't think that the issue is performance related.  I'm guessing that there is some little conflict, pilot program, codec, etc., which is originally the video playback to go bad after a few minutes.  Any thoughts?

    HighMAT is obsolete now and there is very little
    DVD players that recognize the format.

    If you want to create a video CD (VCD) or a video
    DVD... you will need DVD Authoring software.

    First step would be to save the Movie Maker project
    in the. Format WMV movie to a folder on your hard drive.
    Then you could play it in Windows Media Player and
    Share it with others.

    XP Windows Movie Maker 2.1...

    If you want to create a video CD (VCD) or DVD video...
