On windows movie maker, it's only allowing me to import some audio, but not the audio I need.

When I select the audio I want he says "for example. MP3 could not be imported. »

If you convert the MP3 to WMA format before
import into Movie Maker, you can get a better
result.

Several formats are apparently compatible with
Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

Photos - bmp
Video - wmv or dv - avi
Audio - wav, wma, wmv

  • Windows Movie Maker 6.0 won't let me import

    My Windows Movie Maker for Vista (I guess 6.0) does not allow me to import any media. It is a new problem. He worked at a couple of days and all of a sudden does not allow me to import files that she allowed me to import before. After that I tried to import, it says that it cannot because of "an unknown error." If I try to import a second time, and then it says that Windows Movie Maker has stopped responding. The same thing happens when I try to delete the files from the imported section (ones I've imported before and are still there from when he worked).

    Unless someone knows what's going on, I was going to just uninstall and reinstall if it was free, but could not find the 6.0 download.

    Hi Powderdd,

    You cannot uninstall Director of vista because it is part of the operating system.

    This error may be due to some compatibility issue, you can try to update the codec on your computer, and then try to import. If it fails, you can check if the file format is supported by media player.

  • When you use Windows Movie Maker, I can only burn a CD when I want to burn a DVD, why I can't burn a DVD Slideshow?

    I have pictures saved on my hard drive and I want to burn a DVD, but Microsoft Movie Maker will only burn to a CD.  How can I burn to a DVD?  I was told that it is possible.

    The only version of Windows XP that has a DVD option in Movie Maker
    is the "Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005"...

    If you want to burn a video DVD that will play in a free-standing DVD
    Drive on an XP system, you need DVD Authoring software.

    There are many choices in retail, but to get started the following freeware
    may be worth a try:

    (the download is: "dvdflick_setup_1.3.0.7.exe")

    Save the file to your desktop or a folder on your
    hard drive and install from there.

    To create a video DVD base that should play in a free

    First... read the DVD Flick Guide to familiarize
    with the program.

    Open DVD Flick and insert a blank DVD in your drive.

    If the window of Autorun from your computer... just close it.

    Click the project settings button and check... Video /.
    Target format... residents United States... Choose... NTSC /.
    Accept.

    The title button left click Add and navigate to your
    Video clips and select the ones you want on the DVD.

    You can have by selecting one and then use
    the up and down buttons.

    Left click on the button create DVD / OK / Yes / Yes.

    Please wait while the DVD is created.

    When the text "Completed successfully" is displayed you
    DVD Flick can close. Now you can eject your DVD
    and play in your DVD player.

  • Film shot in Windows Movie Maker crashes after 6 seconds during playback in Windows Media Player

    I have a film created (1 minute, 20 seconds) in Windows Movie Maker of two short videos to YouTube.  The original files were .mp4 files and I converted the .wmv files.  I cut 7 seconds since the start of the first video and just linked the two original videos into one.  No special effects.  Plays well in Windows Movie Maker.  Save the file as an .mswmm file (required by Movie Maker) and then published as a .wmv.  When I play it in Windows Media Player, he plays for 6 seconds, then freezes, but the bottom bar is moving, as if he is playing.  I tried to do the same thing without clipping 7 seconds from the beginning - same result.  I used WINFF (free Converter).  Any ideas?  Thanks for your help.

    Hello RachelPierce,

    1. what happens when you try to play the files with Windows Movie Maker?

    This problem can be caused by codecs supporting not the file that you created. If you use a converter, I suggest that you convert the files to MPEG format and verify if you are able to play the files.

    Thank you

    Hello, guenoun.

    I seem to have the same problem as tantoe but when I clicked on the link in your message, it took me to the page, but the person's recommendation was not good; It (don't remember the name) had two links to click & when I clicked on the two I was redirected to a page that says that the page could not be found.

    The song with that I have a problem is "I'm in love (with a killer)" by Jeffree Star &, as with all my other audio files that I did NOT have this problem with, is mp3 format. I have a video in mind with this song & pictures I saved star but Windows Movie Maker cannot import it.

    If there is anything you could do, advice you could give, I would really appreciate it. This is my favorite song by Jeffree Star & it drives me crazy not being able to import it into Movie Maker. :-/

  • Windows Movie Maker - savings-older version

    HI - my daughter received a project to make a band trailer of the movie using Windows Movie Maker.  We have 6 Version, no problem.  But the school has V2.1.4026.0 with a Spk2 V5.1.

    The teacher said that we have to save the project, so it can be read by an earlier version of the software.  I went to the save option under and the "Save as type" gives only the option "Save as Windows Movie maker Project.  I'm sure it's a simple solution, but since this is our first experience with this package I need help.

    So, how to save a Version6 project file so it can be read by older Versions of Windows Movie Maker?
    Anyone?

    Hi Harleysfran,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    Project files more Movie Maker version are not compatible with the lower version of Movie Maker. However, you can publish the project to .avi or .wmv format so that you can play these video files on any computer.

    But you cannot change the published video file.

    Click on the link below for more information about the release of a film.
