  • Windows Movie Maker - file invalid / not found

    I made a movie a few weeks previously registered, get in there a few days later and made more copies. Today, I tried again and I keep getting a message that the file is not valid. I tried opening upward in the creation of DVD and it keeps saying that it has failed. I tried the suggestion of unlicking the box under the sign that says (hide extensions of known file types) - which didn't work. I tried opening the film again and all my imported data is there... just not the movie itself...

    Help, please!

    Yes, it's the same information I read in other forums. I closed the movie maker and tried to reopen the case. I always get an error message that is not valid. I can't find any other file that does not end in MSWMM. After that I closed the error message. All data are available in the media imported section, but the Council of the timeline or history is completely empty / blank - but I know that he was saved several times...

    If the film itself has disappeared... is there a way I can get it back?

    ===========================================
    If you cannot open the MSWMM file in Movie Maker file must
    be damaged. Best bet would be to recreate the project.

    As for the movie... unless you have published (saved) project in the
    Film WMV or AVI format... it was never a real movie file.
    (this would be a clip that would play in Windows Media Player
    and could be shared with others)

  • Window Movie Maker change my video clips to an audio file... Why?

    When I imported a WMM video clip which is a. AVI file and it fell on the timeline and read, I could hear no problem but the screen was black. I noticed that when I dropped it, it loaded to the audio track. So I checked the properties, and he said it was an audio file... why? How to recognize them as videos?

  • need help with video editing in Movie Maker

    I'm editing video on Windows Movie Maker and you want to cover a bite with a b-roll. Y at - it something to do this, and can it be done? I have not found a way to go beyond covering both the video and audio.

    Not sure what you mean when you say b-roll...

    Do you want the audio to continue while you add different content to the video track?

    If_yes_you can drag a second instance of the video Clip on the audio / music
    and then divide the video track if your can add video, pictures, clips etc. Of course
    If you add 5 seconds the new hardware... you will have to remove 5 seconds of original.

    The following tutorial was written for WIn XP, Movie Maker, but it can offer a few ideas:

    ===================================================

    For 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.

  • Editing Windows Movie Maker... Editing video & video keeps freezing... Published the video freezes...

    Hello

    Frequently, I use Windows Movie Maker to edit videos of my friends... But WHENEVER I have to edit a video, and I play it back it ALWAYS freezes... Not the program, but the video Clip... And when I publish it, it freezes EVEN in the video as the preview... My ONLY solution is to keep cutting & removing parts of the video, but my videos are always less than 5 Minutes of time... Please HELP if you can... Thank U...

    Oh, I already know about the Type of Format already... All my videos are 'WMV '... And besides that & "AVI", any other Type of video Format won't let you edit video, he would go to the Audio Section... But I checked my memory @ BobinSECO and my computer says it was good & right now to 4.0 GB (RAM)...

  • Windows Movie Maker is important video imcompletely (only five seconds to hour long video)

    I tried to import this hour long video in windows movie maker, and the result is that only five seconds of the video is imported. I tried over and over again, but still five seconds of the video is imported. I have searched the Internet for answers, but impossible to find a single solution to all but one of this forum that leads to a page for the Director in windows vista, which certainly does not help. Any help on this situation would be greatly appreciated. If it helps, I am running Service Pack 2 for Windows XP Home 32-bit Edition.

    The extension is (.mpg). I've just updated to Service Pack 3, but the problem is still persistent... Right, the Windows Movie Maker version is 5.1, if it helps.

    =====================================
    The problem is the file format. If you convert the MPG file
    in WMV format, you can have better results.

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

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

    The following freeware can convert:

    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.

    are converted)

    Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

    That should do it...
