What can I convert my video files, MP4 to Movie Maker
I recently bought a Sony Action Cam that load the videos to MP4 which is not compatible with my windows media center or movie maker. I tried a mp4 to mp3 converter, but it does not the image and audio so I ve no idea what format I really have to be converting to? Is there a simple converter to format I need? (to be honest I don't really know what I m talking about then don't be not too technical if you please... a link to an easy to use converter would be even better). Please help me!

==================================
Conversion to the. Before importing WMV format
in Movie Maker would be the best bet.
There are to many converters available on the net...
some for free, some retailers, some better than others...
the following freeware is an example that
works fine for me.
(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)
Freemake Free Video Converter (freeware)
http://www.Freemake.com/free_video_converter/
(Windows XP / Vista / 7 / 8)
(* Choose custom installation and carefully)
read * all * the installation screens... There may be some
items you want to unmark *)
If a green install button appears when you launch
Freemake... you can ignore it and it should go away
When you import files.
To download the full version instead of use the
Web Installer, see the following:
Freemake Apps - off-line version
http://www.Freemake.com/offline/offline_all/
(If you want to install freeware Freemake
on your PC without Internet connection,.
Download these files)
When you have installed Freemake... Open Freemake
and drag and drop your video files on the main screen.
Or... Click left on the video button and navigate to the
your video files are saved in the folder.
Select (highlight) the files you want to import into
Freemake and left, click on the button 'open '.
When video files are imported into Freemake,
On the left, click the WMV icon at the bottom of the screen.
The 'WMV output settings' screen opens.
Choose a folder ' save in ', so you can find the
converted files.
On the left, click the "Convert" button and wait for the files
to convert.
Good luck...

Watch the video file. The last 3 letters represent the file format.
Windows Movie maker only supports the following video file formats:
Video files: .asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv
If yours is not on the above list, Movie Maker will have probel play.
In this case, you will have to google for a free video converter and change the format of your video file to WMV. WMV format is the most reliable format for Windows. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

Why can't I import mp3 files to windows movie maker?
I get an error message "Cannot C:\Users\Paul\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Victor Johnson\Fire security Songs\03 Smokey the Bear.mp3 imported." frequently when you try to import tracks .mp3 to my Windows Movie Maker files. It doesn't make a difference if I buy these titles on Amazon or iTunes, or does it make a difference if I create an .mp3 version in iTunes until I try the import. Other titles will not simply import.

Could do audio or video during playback of video file into Windows Movie Maker.
Original title: problems using Windows Movie Maker.
I have a HP Pavilion p6310f desktop computer and I created a movie using about 16 short mpeg files. However, there are no audio or video when I play the individual files in the preview window, and when I try to play the movie, the program crashes. What could be the cause of the problem?
Reset did not help, either. Should I convert the MPEG to AVI files? I read somewhere that might help.
Give it a try. It won't hurt.
I'm out of ideas. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

I want to convert my video files in FLV format as im eager to export the video in flash, this seems to be the only format that it will accept. Media Encoder is more to this format, how can I get around this?
I could be wrong, but in my research for this issue, I learned that there is no solution from Adobe to convert an F4V or a FLV. I talked to Adobe support directly and they told me to buy a 3rd party conversion program. I find absolutely stupid that the only way to embed a video in Animate using a FLV or F4V, and there is no codec to convert video in this format.
