Windows Movie Maker-how to retrieve images from a film project finished

Movie Maker (.wmv) file

I have a movie I did with Movie Maker. I've lost the source (those used to create the movie) files. Is it possible to open the .wmv file and import all the images in a folder on my desktop?

You could make screenshots in Movie Maker by using the 'take a picture '.
option.but the resolution would be not equal to the original photos.

    In windows movie maker, I'm trying to open an old project. It opens, but there is no video clips - only x or empty clips. How can I get the original film clips show?

    I did a movie and released a dvd. Then, I moved my files from movie on an external hard drive to store files and free up space on my computer. So I went back to try a pull up the project and got every X / white clips. So now, I rebooted my computer with the video files I removed on the external hard drive and it still shows empty clips.
    Help.

    The red Xs indicate that Movie Maker cannot find the original source files.
    If the files are still available... just right click on the red Xs and go to the
    current location of the files source and you may be able to restore the
    path.

    I have recently created a slideshow with audio (songs) in windows movie maker, as I do not have powerpoint. When I read the production, the quality is perfect on the screen a small excerpt, but as soon as I open it full screen pictures are of very poor quality.

    Is it also the possibility to create this slideshow on a DVD format to burn to a disc and play in a DVD player (in the windows movie maker program and without having to create the DVD in another program).

    you need... you may need to use a custom profile:

    In Movie Maker... (assuming that your source files are high quality)
    You can increase the resolution of your video by slideshow
    using a custom profile when recording in .wmv movie format.

    Personally, I find the following .wmv profile to be
    useful when recording movies.

  • Windows Movie Maker, create empty audio files from Audio CD through Media Player playback.

    I am trying to integrate audio CD in Windows Movie Maker by using the Microphone of CD Audio in Windows Movie Maker game and reading the CD with Media Player file. The file is created very well with the small notes on the icon, but reading, there is no sound. I went into control panel - household and made sure that all the sound elements was not checked in as volume controls 'mute' and turned everything up to full. Playback of the audio in the player, once I hit 'record' in WMM and the operation starts. I hit stop when the desired recording is over... but the files play 'empty' back in WMM and Media Player. This procedure has worked well for me in the past, so it's very frustrating that it has suddenly stopped working.

  • Windows Movie Maker - How to move video files already in a project

    OK so I have a number of video files that have been 'imported' in Windows Movie Maker from my USB drive. Now, I did my project already and am almost complete with my film. However, is there anyway I can move the videos on my computer so I don't have my USB connected whenever I'm working on the project?

    In other words, is there a way to move a clip from one folder to another and did not Windows Movie Maker lose track of it?

    Here:

    http://www.windowsmoviemakers.NET/tutorials/HowToSaveProjects.aspx

    recommend the folder beforehand. But now, of course, it is too late.

    So come on Microsoft, I'm sure that you have no more to watch this...

    You can open the file .wlmp with a text editor. Here, you can clearly see the full paths to the videos of the project entry.

    Copy all of the video files to where you want, and then manually change the paths in the .wlmp file to match their new locations.

    I can't say I've tested this, but it worked on a few projects without problem.

    WLMM should have a possibility to do it within the program.
