Windows DVD Maker will not accept video files

• Windows DVD Maker do not accept the wmv files error file is not supported.

  Hello

  I just downloaded a video on YouTube using the 'FreeYouTubeDownload' of DVDVideosoft software.  He managed to create a file wmv to me.  I know it works because when I click on the video file and click on 'play', Windows Media Player automatically opens and plays the video.  So far so good.

  I want to burn the file on a DVD.  When I open Windows DVD Maker, click on 'Add items' and click on the video file wmv, I get an error message saying that the file is not supported.

  I have Windows 7 Home Premium. This is my first time using DVD creation.  I checked the DVD Maker for filters, but there aren't any.  What gives?  WMV files are supposed to be supported by DVD Maker, Yes?  My DVD authoring program is defective?  Or is the file that the program created YouTubeDownloader defective?  I think not, because Windows Media Player does not play the video.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Following up on my own question.  Further investigation revealed that from other sources wmv files were working with DVD Maker.  Therefore, the wmv files, created by the freeware program that I used that were not compatible.  I then used the freeware program to create files avi instead, and they were working with DVD Maker.  I did my DVD and all is well.

• Windows DVD Maker will not play on the TV DVD player

  I have Windows Vista, and Windows Movie Maker to make a movie. I've published using Windows DVD Maker. I've made several copies and sent to various members of my family. While I was able to watch them when I tested them on my TV dvd player, none of my family members are able to watch their copies on their dvd players. In addition, when I insert the dvd in my computer's dvd player, it won't play either. How can I fix?

  Thank you. What I did just check "ffdshow" configuration and found that the codec for mp2 was disabled, so I let him. Now when I load the dvd into my computer it starts automatically.

  Now, my question is that I have to burn the new dvd for my family, so they can watch on their dvd player TV? Are their other codecs apart from that I have activated that must be adjusted so that DVDs can be found on other dvd players?

  ======================================
  You didn't say if you have a folder VIDEO_TS on the DVD...

  OK... you say you can play DVDs on your freestanding
  DVD player and on your computer. Startups that appears
  DVDs are fine and the problems of members of your family
  need to be cleared up on their end.

  One thing I would try would be to publish the project as a
  .wmv movie file in a folder on my hard drive. Then I'd
  the following freeware to create a video DVD. There are
  a small chance that it would work better for you.

• Windows Movie Maker do not accept avi files

  I downloaded Windows Movie Maker 2.6, because it is compatible with Windows 7. This worked perfectly first freezing then began after a while. When I tried to work on a video recently, nothing would download to my collections audio tracks but when I tried to download avi files. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but also to repair but nothing works. I struggled with the program for a week. Can I do to solve this problem?

  There are many types of files .avi and many if not most
  have problems of compatibility with Movie Maker.

  Which version of Win 7 are you running?

  I was wondering why you use Movie Maker 2.6
  instead of Windows Live Movie Maker?

  What is the duration of these .avi files? (large complex
  projects can cause siiues)

  Have you tried to convert the .avi files to .wmv format
  before you import into Movie Maker?

  In Movie Maker... it may be worth trying to go to... Tools /.
  Options / Compatibility tab and disable all filters / OK.

  Failure to improve the question... go to Tools / Options /.
  Left and the Compatibility tab, click on the 'all the default settings.
  button.

  It may be interesting to try to publish (Save project)
  in the WMV in Movie Maker format... and then import
  the video file in DVD Maker WMV.
   
  It may help to open Movie Maker and go to... Tools /.
  Options / compatibility... tab and uncheck all filters.
  Try to view your DVD project once more...
  If she is still unable to read the entire file... There may be
  one or more source files in the project that are not
  fully compatible with Movie Maker... several times that
  Maybe a MP3 music file or video clip MPG.

  Or the project may be too large and/or complex
  for the resources of your system. Too many transitions
  and the effects can make a complex project. The fix
  because it is creating small projects.

  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

• Window Movie Maker will not import a mp3 file get that a C: {file location} .mp3 error could not be imported

  OP: Window Movie Maker will not import an mp3 file. Why?

  I tried to imort a song from my music file which is in mp3 format, but the program won't. She won't tell me why, it just says: "C: {file location} .mp3 cannot be imported."  I imported 2 other songs that are the same exact format. Why is it cant import the file?

  Hello spardigus,

  1 - is the full error you get when you try to import the file?

  Some of the Mp3 files can be compressed in various formats. I suggest that you search information below and check out them if you are able to import the files.

  It might be possible that the file may be corrupted and is not readable by Movie Maker. I suggest that you copy the file to a different location on your computer and you are trying to import.

  Also check the size of the file. If it shows 0 bytes, there are good chances that the file may be damaged.

  I suggest that you try to convert this file to avi format using an Audio Converter. There are several converters which helps you convert the file in the required format. Convert the file and try to import.

  You can use your favorite search engine to find the program that will help convert the files.

• Why the version of Windows 7 to Windows DVD Maker product a blurry video of Windows Live Movie Maker?

  When I do a DVD (using Windows DVD Maker) of a film produced by Windows Live Movie Maker photos are blurred and contained very low quality video.  The photos that I use in the project are very sharp, as is the video that I use in the project.

  The movie makes WLMM project is strong on the computer but when it is published on the DVD in Windows DVD Maker it produces a result blur this film as seen on the computer and any DVD player.  It's nothing to do with transitions because the film WLMM is strong.  Other DVD manufacturers produce a sharp image of the film WLMM even, but I prefer the way Windows DVD Maker makes the DVD with scenes, etc...

  The problem seems to lie with the WLMM. creating Windows DVD DVD movie conversion - are they incompatible?  This seems to happen with the version of Windows 7, everything worked fine with versions of Vista on my old computer.  I find it very frustrating to have this return back.  Please suggest a solution.  The version of WLMM is Version 2011 (Build 15.4.3502.0922); I can't find a version number for Windows DVD Maker.

  Update:

  Thanks to Irfan for a potential solution.  I did another DVD with all the filters off but unfortunatey it made no difference.  Having had another close watch the DVD video, the problem is to double everything up like a photo on a slow speed where you have shaking of the camera.  In particular, a girl with wire rim glasses has a rim double wire and even a girl with hair each double strand.  When further looked at what gives the appearance of an image finery.  Again, I must say that the film from which the DVD-video has been done had this failure and from DVD of this film by any other manufacturer of DVD Windows DVD Maker does not exhibit this problem.  The operating system is Windows 7.

  Hello Charley Farley,

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

  You may experience this problem of there are incompatible filters installed on your computer. I suggest that you turn off the filters and check if you have the same problem.

• Newbe to epub creation... itunes book oven will not accept encrypted files from InDesign 2014... cant find them and which fonts can use one without this problem?

  Newbe to epub creation... itunes book oven will not accept encrypted files... cant find them and which fonts can use one without this problem?

  The book oven does not accept the embedded fonts that are encrypted, even if the encryption is by the IDPF specifications.

  InDesign will not incorporate fonts unencrypted by respect for the rights of the provider of the police.

  There is no work around as I know, at least with regard to preview what will look like the fonts. If you choose not to embed the fonts then the oven should work, but then you won't be able to see what the fonts look like, no?

  What is the team of InDesign epub is simply side load the epub via dropbox or by e-mail. Two of these routes allow you to choose "open with...". "and iBooks will be one of the choices.

  Apple knows about it. I suggest that you remember that, as a customer, you are not satisfied with this behavior and asks that they go back on their decision.

• Windows DVD Maker Burns not part any video of the film, I have a black screen in the middle of the music and titles...

  I made a movie in Windows Movie Maker using film 8 mm which was transferred to the files. The film came out great but when I go to 'release', or burn to dvd, it says Windows Movie Maker will save file and open it in creation of DVD to burn/publish.  About halfway through the movie, there is no 8 mm video, you can see all the titles, and hear the music that I edited in but no video.  I cut the video in half thinking there was too much data, I burned my movie with no other programs running, I changed all the transitions and titles in thinking that you might have a glitch.  I have burned about 10 films try something different each time without success. Help!
