Why Movie Maker adds a video as a 7 second video white black?

I have a 44 minute wmv movie that I need to change.  I'm going home and add a video.  Then when I try to play or change, it is only 7 seconds and is a blank black screen.  This is obviously false.  I tried to convert it to a higher resolution and then 'Add' again.  This movement is also screen black 7 seconds.  However, the player window doesn't have a problem reading of the original file.  It's only the movie maker who has problems.

I do not have Windows Movie Maker Live, but one of my previous links indicates this.

"Import pictures and videos".

Windows Live Movie Maker 2011 allows you to create movies
using photos and videos imported from Windows Live Photo Gallery 2011, a DVD, a digital camcorder or a smart phone. »

As I don't have or use WLMM I'm not sure that this is true or not?  I don't know if you need Windows Live Photo Gallery 2011 to import successfully in WLMM?

  • Movie Maker plays audio / video in the preview window, no audio on the table of storyboard / timeline

    Never had this problem before - I have downloaded the clip from digital camera to PC, then imported into Movie Maker.  He plays in the screen preview with audio and video, but when I add it to the editing view or the storyboard table, there is no audio despite the visibly populated audio track.  Volume settings show no inhibition and no adjustment of the volume level will bring the sound up. A lot of gel on, too.

    Something to try...

    In Movie Maker... try to go to... Tools / Options / compatibility... tab and uncheck all filters / OK.

    If no improvement... go to... Tools / Options / Compatibility tab... left click on the "All default settings" button / OK.

  • Windows Movie Maker, add multiple transitions...

    So I use the windows Director, received a 2000 dollar laptop in the hope that it would work better than my old mac.

    I tried EVERYTHING, select all, clicking wildly. I'm tired and actually take a stick flash from this computer in my old mac where I can do it with a single click.

    PROBLEM: I 1265 pictures I put in a slideshow, with transitions between each, and music. MUSIC: CHECK. PHOTO: CHECK. TRANSITIONS: ONE AT A TIME! WTF! Sorry about the language, but he me flusters when a mac I got in 2006 surpasses my two day old PC. On mac, I press a button and random transitions appear on ALL my photos.

    Any help? I'm on vista premium, Movie Maker 6.0.

    Hello roadrunnersk,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    Sorry, you have a problem with that!  I added a few steps, I hope, will help with the addition of transitions.  Please let us know status.  Thank you!

    1.

    On the table of the storyboard / timeline, click the second of the two video clips, titles or images that you want to add a transition between.

    2.

    Click on Tools, and then click Transitions.

    3.

    In the content pane, click the transition that you want to add. You can click read under the screen to see a preview of what looks like the transition.

    4.

    Click the Clip, and then click Add to the timeline or Add to the storyboard table.

    Notes

    ·         You can also add a transition by dragging in the timeline and dropping it between two clips on the video track. Or, if you are in the view storyboard, drag the transition to the cell to transition between two video clips or pictures.

    ·         If you updated your Windows XP computer to Windows Vista, any other transitions and effects that you had previously downloaded and installed will not be available in the current version of Windows Movie Maker.

    Add transitions and effects to pictures and video in Windows Movie Maker:

  • Windows Movie Maker, add narration and music?

    Im trying to add music to the background of my video, but I also need narration. It seems as if I have only one or the other, and the only way to have 2 audio tracks is to use audio that comes with the video file and then have EITHER music OR narration. How can I have all 3?

    Hi weeksma,

    In Windows Movie Maker, it is not possible to add music and narration to the time in a video but as a work-around, try this:

    Step 1

    (1) open a new project in Movie Maker.
    (2) add your videos to the script/storyboard.
    (3) add audio recordings (narration clips) in the timeline panel.
    (4) making adjustments to the video and soundtrack.
    (5) export the video file.

    Add narration to your movie

    (3) add the music to the timeline.

  • The music will not play on my Windows Movie Maker 2.6 video?

    I've converted .mp3 to .wav files so that they are compatible with Movie Maker 2.6, but they don't always work. I even tried to convert .wma but still nothing. Work files, they play fine on Windows Media Player but when I add them to the video there is no sound. Help, please!
     
    The video is a video, hypercam if that helps. Which is a .avi format. Does it matter?

    Hello JackySC,

    1. What is the operating system installed on your computer?

    MP3 and Avi files are compatible with Movie Maker 2.6 and should work. However, if you are not able to read files with this, I suggest you install Windows Live Movie Maker and check if you have the same problem.

  • 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:

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

    That should do it...
