• Windows Movie Maker error importation 'may not be imported. "An interface has too many methods to fire from.

  I'm doing a movie using Windows Movie Maker and hobby clips that I converted to VHS using Roxio Easy VHS tapes to DVD converter.  When I try to import the file into the Movie Maker, I get a message saying 'could not be imported. "An interface has too many methods to fire from.  What should I do?

  This happens usually when your source files are
  not compatible with Movie Maker. Best bet would be
  be to convert video files to WMV format
  before you import into Movie Maker.

  There are many converters available on the net... some
  free... some detail.

  Hi Roni Jones,

  1. do you get an error message?
  2. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?
  3. What is the format of the video file that you are trying to play?

  Method 1
  I suggest you try turning OFF and turning ON video filter and check if the problem persists.

• Windows Movie Maker 6.0 error during recording: check if the original sources are still available, the saving location is available and if there is enough disk space

  Original title: Windows Movie Maker 6.0 Save Bug?

  Something's weird with Windows Movie Maker...

  It cannot record movies, I create somehow.

  Immediamente when it starts to save, it gives an error signal: check if the original sources are always available (and yet, they all), there is no such thing as the save location (of course it is!) and if there is enough disk space (a lot of). Still, it will not save. How can this be possible?

  I use an mp3 file (pendulum - watercolor) and have a lot of footage, often used with effects. They are 1280 x 1024 and a .avi file. Everything should work fine, but still does not work. Help me!

  Reach... Tools / Options / compatibility... tab and
  Uncheck all filters / OK.

  The error that you received can be caused by the following:

  (1) source incompatible or damaged files (photos,
  video clips, audio clips).

  Several formats are apparently compatible with
  Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

  Photos - bmp
  Video - wmv
  Audio - wav, wma, wmv

  (2) the project is too big or too complex for your system
  resources. Made video is time CPU and
  can sometimes cause blackouts.

I'm interested to know if it is possible to import an image from the computer, in the rectangular segment positioned centrally in the composition of the journal.

I would like to know how to import such an image - if possible, please.

  I've created a show of 'Film' using Windows Movie Maker and have used the "Diary" movie clip I would like to know if it is possible to insert or otherwise import a picture or a photograph in the rectangle that is located approximately in the Center, so that once the movie clip's headed toward the Viewer, the image or photo and then 'zoom in' to fill the frame.

• Windows Movie Maker - music is not playing little matter what I do

  I'm making a movie for my best friend for her birthday. I'm trying to use some of our favorite songs as background music. I'm going to and upload music and it is important, but when I put it in the movie and I play it, no music plays. I know that the film plays because my images in the film show the way they are supposed to. The volume on my computer is in place, and I went through all the audio levels and volume. I went upstairs, hit the clip and have a level of hihgh audio in the editing mode, I hit chronology and went to sound levels, and it is up. I even checked the properties of the songs I am trying to use, and they present themselves as a .mp3. When I went on google and other things to see what could be the problem, a page said that even if the music is in .mp3 form and other forms that work with Windows Movie Maker, they can simply not work. However, some of the songs I am using, I have used in other films I've done, and they do not work yet. So I don't understand what the problem is, and I've checked everything. Is there something that I don't check? Help, please! I really need to solve this problem, because I use movie maker for both school projects, and this movie would be amazing as a birthday gift.

  Hi monkeygurlsurfs,

  If you get the sound from your pc in other programs, the problem is not hardware. Did you of updates or Windows updates or any software installed since the last time that your audio worked? Usually, if the audio doesn't work, is it a device driver conflict. Make sure you have the updated driver for your sound card from the manufacturer's website. Also, check your device manager to see if the audio device appears normal (no yellow exclamation point). You can try to perform a check of the filesystem (CFS) to see if there are any corrupt files that Windows can correct:

  The System File Checker tool:

  To determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

  To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

  1 click on Start -> click on all programs -> click on Accessories -> - click on command prompt, Select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue.

  2. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow .

  3. when the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

  If the problem you are experiencing started occurring recently, you can use the System Restore tool. Using this tool, you can restore the computer to an earlier point in time. The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

  1. click on Start, type System Restore in the Search box, and then click System Restore in the programs list. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue.

  2. in the System Restore dialog box, click choose a different restore point, and then click Next.

  3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

  4. click on Finish.

  The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

  Try these procedures and let us know how you do. If you're still having problems, we will be happy to help you further.

  ==========================================
  FWIW... Windows Movie Maker 2.6 is not an update... it's a disassembled
  version for systems that will not run Vista Movie Maker 6.

  The new version... would be Windows Live Movie Maker. It is quite
  different from version 6. If you decide to try it... plan on creating
  a new project because your version 6 files probably will not
  be compatible.

  Windows Live Movie Maker
  http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-Movie-Maker
  (There are other applications included in the download...
  Uncheck the ones you don't want)

  As for the error... I wonder if you may have a compatibility issue
  with your source files.

  Several formats are apparently compatible with Movie Maker but the
  more reliable choices are:

  Photos - bmp
  Video - wmv or dv - avi
  Music - wma, wav, wmv

  Have you tried editing (save) your project in the WMV movie
  format and then importing the video file in Windows DVD WMV
  Maker?

  It is also possible that your project is too large or complex.
