Why is there no video and no sound in windows movie maker when you try to transfer a camcorder mini dv?

I have a Canon ZR50MC and a HP Pavilion DV6628us laptop.  I am trying to transfer videos via a firewire cable, but there is no video or Director of windows.  When you try to save, it shows that if the band is running and it is actually being run in the camcorder but the screen in WMM is black with no sound at all.  Help, please!

    When you were importing files into Windows Movie Maker (WMM)...

    1 have you seen to ensure it worked properly?

    2. don't you import music files separately from the photos and video files?

    The point being: there are only a few audio formats that are supported by Windows Movie Maker.
    Supported by WMM audio files: .aif, .aifc, .aiff .asf, .au, .mp2, .mp3, .mpa, .snd, .wav, and .wma

    File format is represented by the letters lsat 3 of the audio file.

    If your audio file format is not on the list above, you need to google for a FREE audio converter and change your audio file.
    The recommended formats, you must use are: mp3, wma and wav... in that order.

    ======================================
    Copy the VOB files to a folder on your hard drive, then
    Convert it to .wmv format. Then you can import the
    file .wmv in Movie Maker.

    all the boxes on the last screen)

    After downloading and installing Format Factory...
    Open the program and choose an output folder...
    (this is where you will find your files when they are
    converted)

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

    Select "At?" / OK...

  • How do I import a video video camera Flip Flip in Windows Movie Maker?

    I have 112 video clips from my Flip video camera I want to import on my hard drive of Windows 7 pro 64-bit. Can I use Windows Movie Maker to do? My Windows 7 does not recognize the Flip camera when I connect it to a USB 2.0 camera Flip. I can see all the videos on the Flip video camera screen but I can't figure out how to import them to my hard drive. Cisco has ceased all support for their Flip camera December 31, 2013. I have the FlipShare software installed on my computer but I can't seem to import videos from the Flip video camera. Is there another software that will import the videos? Is it possible to get Windows 7 to recognize the Flip camcorder?

    When you connect the device to a USB port, you should see a drive appear in the computer (you can see the drive opens automatically).

    Open this drive and double-click DCIM

    There should be one there. In mine it is called 100Video.

    Open this folder and your videos should be there. They can be copied to anywhere on your computer.

    Make sure that you copy them only so that the original is still on the camera until you are sure you have them all.
