====================================
Just because a media file plays in Windows Media Player
does not ensure that it is compatible with Movie Maker.

In fact... Movie Maker has problems with MP3 files... better
bet would be to convert the files to the .wma format before
import into Movie Maker.

The following freeware program can perform the conversion:

(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)

Format Factory
http://www.pcfreetime.com/
(FWIW... you can uncheck
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 clips of music on the main screen...

Select "At?" / OK...
(the? is the format of your choice)

Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

That should do it...

Good luck...

  • The sound of some mp3 saturated in WMP11 when read by interface usb audio, but they play fine in iTunes

    Help, going crazy here!

    With MP3 encoded at 320 kbps with 48 kHz sampling frequency, I get a terrible distortion when play on WMP11 on my MAudio Mobile Pre USB audio interface. When the MP3 is playing in WMP11 by the internal sound card and built-in Laptop speakers, that the sound is not distorted, except that he is from small tinny speakers. If you think that the Pre Mobile is the culprit, but...

    I have the latest driver for MAudio and Mobile meadow has been installed correctly, I can play MP3s that are 320 kbps with sampling frequency of 44.1 KHz without problems through the external audio interface.

    In addition, iTunes plays the same 320 kbps, 48 KHz MP3, out through the pre Mobile and they play very well, no distortion at all (?)

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled WMP11 without success, downloaded codecs updated, tried to disable the throttling of the CPU and various other things with no results.

    I look forward to use iTunes, because it is so slow, I'd like WMP11 to work with these 48 kHz mp3s and I have a bunch of them, so I really want to convert them to 44.1 Khz. Not only that, the deformation occurs also with a lot of video files (AVI), where I think the sound is coded in 48 kHz.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks Dennyinredding, that seemed to work and it is not SLOW as iTunes, thanks for the suggestion!

    It might be useful if you set DVD Maker 16:9 before you import
    the source files. If this does not help... you could try to prepare the
    project in Windows Live Movie Maker (choice of widescreen).

    The aspect ratio seems to work in creation of DVD so better the
    video source is in the. WMV format.

    Hello

    read this on the engraving in the mastered Format;

    Burn a CD or DVD

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/burn-a-CD-or-DVD

    Burn a disc using the ISO image format

    Choose the size of the ISO image when you need a highly compatible disc that will play in computers with an older version of Windows or in devices such as CD and DVD players that can play video files and music digital. For more information about choosing a disc format, see which CD or DVD format should I use?

    1. Insert a writable CD or DVD CD writer or DVD in your computer.

    2. In the dialog box that appears, click on burn the files to a data disc.

    3. In the engraving, a disc dialog box, type a name for this disc, and then click Show formatting options.

    4. Click on ISO image, and then click Next.

      An empty disc folder opens.

    5. Open the folder that contains the files to burn and then drag the files into the empty disc folder.

    6. In the toolbar, click on burn to disc.

      The selected files are copied to the disk. When burning is complete, the drive tray opens and you can remove the drive. You can now use the disc in another computer or media. This type of disc has no need to be closed.

    WMP 11.0.6002.19378 OS Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit SP2 - 4 GB of RAM

    When I rip music from a CD 10-15 seconds of each song breaks and crunches but play on the same had ' drive it is. MP3, download files also have the same number.

    I have spent with the disks, the D and E and updated their. I did a SFC scan and nothing was found. I noticed that I'm not the only one who has experienced this problem.

    I am connected with the reception of the answer but their controls failed and they wanted me to pay $99 - $149 to run a tool to solve this problem, without any guarantee, so did not take their offer.

    Can someone tell me please how to fix this?

    Please check with the manufacturer of your sound card for an updated driver, windows update may not always be up-to-date.

    If after this, it is not one and you do not want to try the system restore I suggest you do as you say and you get a different media player. Keep in mind, future changes to the system can have an effect on any software that you decide to use. I don't know any other media player will work around the question of the rights of your purchased music. Have you checked on puretracks forum to see what others do / use?

    I wouldn't by any software, you can get several very free vouchers, iTunes, classic media player, VLC is very good.

    My OS can all play, I installed Windows Media Player.

    All my preferences in topic amovible.*: config have a default value, and I tried to change things - without success.

    I also disabled all addons/plugins, tried another profile, tried the developer version of 64-bit. I had the same problem on my old computer (I did a clean install on a totally new computer and imported via MozBackUp settings). Firefox Safe mode will not help either.

  • With more than 2 GB videos for veiwing h264 problems, they won't play in windows or version mac et seq., less than 2 GB, they play very well.

    I work for a video company, video encoding, the only problem we have is Firefox plays videos not encoded as H 264 (1080) greater than 2 GB, because they do not play. I tried the two latest version 9.0.1 in mac and windows and no change. In Internet Explorer, Chrome, the video plays well. Is there a file limit in Firefox? I read somewhere else that FF also has problems downloading files of 2 GB, do not know who is bound. Any help would be appreciated.

    Firefox does even not play H264 content by default. For HTML5 video, it will play OGG / Theora and WebM, but a plugin is necessary for the H264 content.

    Hello patv1,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

    In addition to the response of Azam, you can also check with the device manufacturer for more information about recording and playback. This can occur if the video was recorded in landscape mode. Try to change the display or orientation in software video editing for playback in Windows Media Center or Windows Media player.

    I hope this information is useful.

  • Windows Media Player-how create a playlist

    howdoicreateaplaylist?

    I just got a laptop, don't have a clue on how to create playlists?

    Open Windows media player.  On the side right of the window see you 3 tabs, click the tab game and displays the reading pane.

    1 drag selected titles / tracks in this pane groups

    or select the titles / groups of tracks, do a right click, add to, Playlist

    2 at the time at the top of the reading pane, there is a backup button.  Click on it and it will give you the chance to give it a name.  It will record this name playlist in the Playlists of music / [or the Playlists subfolder in what you chose for your music folder].

    3 you can then play the list just like you can read an album or anything else.  If the playlists do not appear in the left hand "navigation pane" in WMP, click on organize, customize navigation pane & you can select them to be shown.

    Note: I talked to someone who had a problem, save playlists.  It is then rendered in the music folder in Windows Explorer and manually created Playlists subfolder.  The function of economy playlist then behaved correctly.

    There are also "auto-playlists' [created for each album ripped, I think] but you have to pick them up in Windows help pages that I've not used since WinXP so anything I said maybe garbage - they could not exist more for as far as I know.

  • Windows Live Movie Maker plays a fuzzy imported .wmv file, which plays totally fine on Media Player

    Hello


    I have Windows 7 and I'm trying to 'sting' 3 whole .wmv files in a movie. (You know, a very basic edition!) One of the files (once registered online or webinar) .wmv appears blurry on Live Movie Maker, but totally fine, clear plays in the drive Media.  Why?  Here are the properties of the file.

    Can someone help me solve this?  Thank you!

    Another possibility is that Movie Maker is just having trouble viewing clip Webinar.  Webinar clips using a different compression standard since they do not have a lot of changing information.  In addition, your screenshot, it is clear that the clip is in 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio, then maybe when Movie Maker it resizes to the preview, it causes content to blurs.  This is highly visible when you have the text slides where there are many small details.

    As noted by J of volunteer work, you can try to convert and combine clips using Freemake Video Converter.  That could help.  In addition, you never said if you saw this blur in the preview, in the final movie, or both.  If the problem is in the preview, you could ignore it, especially if the video arrived at the final is very good.
