Video is not displayed in Windows Live Movie Maker - Windows 7

I have problems with Windows Live Movie Maker on Windows 7. After update to the last version, the preview window left remains black during audio playback. I tried various different clips of different cameras that have been known to work before, and yet they all have the same problem. Thumbnails are displayed on each clip, just no video. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if I have to download something (for example, a codec), I would have certainly preferred it to be from a trusted site. Thank you!

Hello

  • This happens with Windows media player only?

  • My windows live Movie Maker has an ER code 0 x 80004005, cannot display viedo of camer after down load, that its there just will not be open for the show.

    After down loading the camera viedo, it will not be open for show, but it's there, ER (0x80004005) it says Director windows live how I do to reboot?

    Have a look at the last 3 letters of the video you've imported to Windows Live Movie maker (WLMM).
    That the last 3 letters represent the format of the video file. If the format is NOT supported by WLMM, he won't play it.

    Here are the formats supported by WLMM:
    Video files: .asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

    If your video file format is not on the list above, google for a FREE video converter and it allows to convert your video file.
    The best format to convert is WMV. The most reliable and foo-proof format.

    Hi RichGraff,

    • You have sounds in the VCR of Canon?
    • Are you facing problem with this video or other videos as well?

    For now, I suggest to import the video clip in Windows Movie Maker, which is an application integrated into Windows Vista and check if you get its in.

    If you have an older version of Movie Maker you can import the

  • 3PG videos are mirrored in Windows Live Movie Maker - help, please! : () o

    Hello everyone,

    I just downloaded a bunch of .3pg videos from my phone and trying to make a beautiful film for Christmas with them using Windows Live Movie Maker. WLMM matter videos and displays thumbnail video exactly the way it's supposed to, but in the region which play my video, it is shown upside down-> I can rotate video 180 degrees-> then I realized it was not only the video upside down at first, but it is completely reversed / a mirror-image of the original video (IE there's a zit on the left side of your face in real life and) the original and now with the one in WLMM importetd video the zit is now on the right).

    Of course, there are no options for this problem, so I don't know how prevent/reverse this. Y at - it a codec, an update, anything that will allow me to use the files WLMM and 3pg without going nuts?

    Thank you very much-, I've been Googling for awhile and couldn't find anything.

    ===================================
    I suspect that your best option would be to convert the
    3GP files in a more compatible format like WMV before
    import into Movie Maker.

    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.pcfreetime.com/
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip
    (FWIW... installation..., you might want to
    Uncheck the box 'all' boxes on the last screen)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag the FFSetup260.zip out of the folder
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    First... 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...

    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.
