• Windows Movie Maker & DVD Maker stop responding when you import a .avi file

  Help, please.

  The two Windows Movie Maker DVD Maker & allow me to import .avi files I ask, but then I get a message that the program has stopped working. I have Windows Vista Home Premium and I a novice in computer science.

  Thank you.

  Tommy

  Hello

  ·        Have you been able to import before avi files to your Windows movie maker and the creation of DVD?

  ·        You are able to import another file without any problem format?

  Try to import another file type (format) and check if the problem persists.

   

  Step 1:

  Damaged codec is often a cause of crashes with Windows Movie Maker and Windows DVD Maker.

  If possible, use a program to convert your Windows Media movies first and then try to import it.

  Step 2:

  If the movie maker was working properly before, I suggest you to reset the windows movie maker settings. Follow the steps in the article mentioned below.

• Windows Movie Maker DVD will not play in my DVD of Emerson drive

  Burned DVD won't play in my dvd player. I worked on it for three days. I burned a movie on a dvd + rw disc. The film will play on my computer but won't play in my dvd player. I get "Disk error" on the screen and the disc may not have playback function. What is the function of reading and how I can change my download? I lived all the concepts of self-help, but none of them fit to my problem. I have Windows Vista Premium and have tried using Windows DVD Maker. I called the manufacturer of my drive and they said I need to finalize the disc. How can I do to do this with Windows DVD MAKER?  I read articles about video editing, but when I went through the steps that I wasn't even offered the possibility to publish the video. My brother uses the same discs when burning movies and I have no problem playing his films. What I am doing wrong?

  Hi BrookeMcCulley,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

  On some of the DVD player, you will not be able to play DVD + RW discs.  You will need to use DVD + r (read DVD) drive and check if it works.

  You can also try to use another brand of DVD disc and check.

• Cannot import mp3 files in Windows Movie Maker 6 under Vista. Error ".mp3 could not be imported.

  Original title: Impossible to import the mp3 downloads in Windows Movie Maker Version 6: circle of the keeps popping up saying that... with a red and white X: Music\Amazon MP3\LMFAO\Party Rock (Amazon MP3 Exclusive Version) [Explicit] \09 - hits [Explicit] .mp3 could not be imported.

  Currently, I did a video using Windows Movie Maker Version 6. I downloaded several downloads mp3 audio and have only been able to import a couple of them in Windows Movie Maker. I downloaded three downloads of specific music that will not matter.

  I have no explanation, and it makes no sense that I can download some but not all mp3 downloads. What can I do to be importable download music in Windows Movie Maker? or import music that I already paid for and tried to import?

  Hello, guenoun.

  I seem to have the same problem as tantoe but when I clicked on the link in your message, it took me to the page, but the person's recommendation was not good; It (don't remember the name) had two links to click & when I clicked on the two I was redirected to a page that says that the page could not be found.

  The song with that I have a problem is "I'm in love (with a killer)" by Jeffree Star &, as with all my other audio files that I did NOT have this problem with, is mp3 format. I have a video in mind with this song & pictures I saved star but Windows Movie Maker cannot import it.

  If there is anything you could do, advice you could give, I would really appreciate it. This is my favorite song by Jeffree Star & it drives me crazy not being able to import it into Movie Maker. :-/
