Try to use Windows movie maker but the error message

Hello

I try to import a file from a folder on my computer .mpg, but it keeps giving me an error message "interface has too many methods to fire events from. What does that mean?

"... An interface has too many methods to fire events from... "a word geek, which translates as"... you try to use a MPEG-2 file in Movie Maker, and it won't import or work... ". ».

The simple answer is to stop to try and convert the file to an AVI or WMV file that will work.

Read all about it at the link below:

  • Using Windows Movie Maker on the error message XP__ not indexed _ bad quality

    I use Windows Movie Maker XP (version 2.1?).  I've converted and imported a lot of videos.  I have a group of short videos recorded the same day.  I (with free STROKE) converted to AVI and they play with no audio and several play accelerated.  I've then diverted to ASF and some of them imported correctly.  Most of them gave me an error message that they were not indexed.  I downloaded several things to remedy this from online forums: I uninstalled K-Lite pack codec, Expression Encoder 4, WinDVR AVI, DivFix, lame and a number of things.  That's a family movie, I spent a lot of time on it.  If anyone can help with my old hardware and software configuration at this point I'd appreciate it.  The original film seems to be of much better quality than what I am able to import.  Thank you!

    The most reliable video format for Movie Maker is. WMV.

    No guarantee... but the following freeware converter
    may be worth a try:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Sothink Free Video Converter
    http://www.Sothinkmedia.com/video-converter/
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    You will need to unzip the file... or you could just drag
    the Setup.exe from the file out of the folder and drop it on your
    desktop and install from there.

    Once installed... Open Sothink and go to... Add the files button...
    Find and select the clips you want to convert.

    Next... in the encoding settings... Choose... Video credits.
    WMV - Windows Media Video (*.wmv).

    Choose an output folder and on the left, click on the button convert.

    You can experiment with other settings later but
    This should help you get started.

    Good luck...

    Hi twilight,

    ·         Do you have what video creation software installed?

    ·         How long have you been experiencing this problem?

    ·         Have you done other recent changes on the computer?

    ·         What is the exact error message/code?

    ·         The problem occurs with the entire application?

    I suggest you try the steps mentioned below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

    If the problem persists in safe mode run clean boot to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode

    Step 2: No detection system file checker (SFC).

    Step 3: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • All using windows movie maker, I added audio, but I can't hear the music while playing the video... Why is this?

    All using windows movie maker, I added audio, but I can't hear the music while playing the video... Why is this?

    Hello

    1. What is the format of the video file that you use in Movie Maker?

    2. do you receive error messages when you try to play the video?

    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 use your favorite search engine and download third-party video editing software to convert the file.

    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.

    Just some thoughts...

    It may be useful if you are going to... Tools / Options / Compatibility tab...
    and uncheck all filters.

    Also... it might be a compatibility problem with your source files...
    (videos / photos / music files)

    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

    Also... If it is a large complex project, you could have a system
    the question of resources. The answer would be to create
    more modest projects.

  • Problem with the sync audio to video when you use Windows Movie Maker version 6.0

    I have a HP Slimline Pavillion S.3220.uk PC, using Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. I have problems with the audio video synchronization when using Windows Movie Maker, version 6.0, I 'get' raw AVCHD files to .wmv using voltaic HD.  I've noticed that the audio and video are out of sync, ONLY after the first thumbnail.  No indirect problem with videos, but when people talk to the camera, in case of DISASTER, as he is out of sync. I tried to reduce the resolution of 720 p and 540 p, and no solution to the problem. Any thoughts on the matter please?

    Hi Fabian119,

    Today, there are hundreds of audio and video codecs in use. Some were created by Microsoft, but the vast majority of codecs have been created by other companies, organizations or individuals. By default, the Windows operating system and the player includes a number of the most popular codecs, such as MP3, Windows Media Audio and Windows Media Video.

    There might be times, however, when you want to read the content that is compressed with a codec that does not include Windows or the default player (for example, a file compressed with the DivX video codec or the Ogg Vorbis audio codec). Because the player is extensible, in many cases you can download the necessary codec on the web for free or for a fee.

    You can visit the following links for more information on codecs:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/codecs-frequently-asked-questions

    You can also view the following link to download the audio file conversion programs and check if you can convert AVCHD to Mpeg.

  • Have used Windows Movie Maker very well for months and now it stops just to work

    OK, so I had a recent problem with Movie Maker. How original is that? For months and months I used it with only minor headaches. But I can't understand it and I spent hours to friction on this problem and the search for something. All Google tell me is to make sure that my files are in a format that is accepted! Duh! I use them very well until about a month ago.

    After months of works very well, many of my clips imported media (especially. AVI and others. WMV) has decided to stop working one day. The video will not play, but the sound is very good. I re-imported the videos just to be sure, but no luck... He would not even show a thumbnail after I imported the.

    Original title: what is the problem with WMM? Help, please!
    I tried to look at the files in Media Player and got a black screen with audio complete.
    I reformatted the. AVI files (using zamzar.com) in. Format WMV, but when I tried to import those, he would give me some nonsense. In any case, I tried to defrag my drive hard as someone suggested online (I have an old computer anyway) but I don't really think it helped.
    It could be a codec problem (I don't know what would have prompted such), the Enigma is that SOME of my clips will play in the preview, but they stop working as soon as I drag them on the timeline. And I found one. WMV file in one of my old projects that will play in the panel mounting.
    I even tried to save an unfinished project to my computer (16:9 aspect ratio, high quality NTSC). But I got an error message: "WMM cannot be saved to the specified location. Verify that the original source files used in your movie are still available, that the backup location is still available, and that there is enough available disk space, and then try again. "So I tried to save the recommended"best suited"on a blank CD and it always gave me this message

    I use Windows Movie Maker c. 5.1. (Build 2600) on a computer running Windows XP Professional 2002, SP 3. I try to publish a movie file which is a revised version of a WMV file. In other words, the original file is a file WMV is 534 MB.  I am editing the film by dividing and by deleting scenes, adding transitions and titles.  I am able to save the file (for a WMM file) but impossible to publish the movie.  I checked that (i) the files are in the correct location, (ii) the file does not exceed the limit of 4 GB, (iii) the destination does not exist (I tried everything from my desktop to video files).  I tried every possible resolution and the file type.

    I would change the software of movie at this point if I had not invested so much energy and time behind this project.  Help, please!

    Hello not happy with WMM,

    You get an error message when you try to publish?  If so, what is it?

    One thing you might try is breaking your video into 3 or 4 smaller sections and see if they work / will be published separately.

    See you soon
