  See the following article:

• Making Windows movie maker dvd problems

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas: when burning video/movie for Windows DVD burner that he stops every time I reach about 60 to 64% after nada, not even a message.

  • You have problems with programs

  It may be interesting to try to wait and see what happens.

  Sometimes, this can happen if one or more of your source

• WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER MUSIC PROBLEM

  USING WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER, WHEN I TRY TO IMPORT THE MUSIC, I GET THE MESSAGE THAT IT COULD NOT BE IMPORTED.  HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

  Some audio and video file formats are not supported in Windows Movie Maker and cannot be imported. However, if you have a video or audio file that is not taken care of, you can use a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by Windows Movie Maker, and then import the video file or an audio resulting in Windows Movie Maker

  You can import files with the following file name extensions into Windows Movie Maker to use in your project:

  • Video files: .asf, .avi, dvr - ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

  • Audio files: .aif, .aifc, .aiff, .asf, .au, .mp2, .mp3, .mpa, .snd, .wav, and .wma

  • File Picture: .bmp, DIBs, .emf, .gif, .jfif, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg, .png, .tif, .tiff and .wmf

  If you want to import a file into Windows Movie Maker that has a different from those indicated above, extension in the file type list, select all files. Windows Movie Maker can import most file types, but not all types of files do not work when you try to use them to make a movie.

• Windows Movie Maker Import file size limit?

  I have a '. '. AVI"file 3 929 057 KB in size I want to edit and cut into smaller segments, but Windows Movie Maker will not open the file.

  Is there a file size limit? I have not been able to find info on this subject.

  Or is there a way to cut the file into chunks of size who will take care of Windows Movie Maker?  I don't want ot lose any of these images, but in this current state I can't see it at all.

  I use Windows Vista and the latest version of Windows Movie Maker, but have the same problem on my XP Pro computer also.

  Thanks John,

  I'll look into some of the elements that you suggest, but the video that I have problems with was shot with a camera GoPro Hero and I have serveral shooting more the same day, but shorter than Move Maker opens no problem at all.  That's why I me in question of the limit of file size.  I spoke with a few other people who use the GoPro camera identical to mine and they have no problems, but I don't know how big a folder that they shot and they couldn't remember.

  ===================================
  As far as I KNOW... the only limit would be your system resources. John Inzer - MS - MVP - Digital Media Experience - Notice_This is not tech support_I'm volunteer - Solutions that work for me may not work for you - * proceed at your own risk *.

  FWIW... 17 hours is a time if this project can
  be too big or too complex for your system resources.
  Creation of several small projects may be the answer.

  Also before you import into film WMV conversion

  If you still cannot save... try to save in the DV - AVI format:

• Legends and Windows Movie Maker-imported photo are extremely blurred

  created a movie using MMM.  Each photo has a caption under it (already imported like that as a .jpg file).  Both the photo and caption are extremely blurry.  I'm devastated.

  When I open the files of photos to make a slide show, it is very bright, perfectly crisp and clear.  I created the film and recorded on my computer as DV - AVI so I could make the DVD.  Help!

  I think that the info-hughes skier was looking for is
  What are the dimensions in pixels of the pictures
  until you import them into Movie Maker.

  The project includes video clips or
  is it just still shots?

  If your saved video files are not the resolution you
  require... you may need to use a custom profile:

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

  Download from the following site...

• Windows Movie Maker, a problem of sound with the "Split"?

  Well, that makes me extremely crazy because I'm unable to download videos on youtube. So I have this video which lasts 7 minutes. I decided to split the video into two (at halfway accurate). Then I inserted a photo in the middle of the video. The problem here is that after the image in the Middle, the second part of my video plays fine except for the sound (my voice). He decided to play my voice from the first part of the video response and bacsically everything for the second clip! I tried everything in my power to make it work. I even tried to cut the second part, while he was alone and recording, but guess what? He still played my voice of the first part of the video! It is making me upset moajorly. I also have the updated version if you were wondering. It is much too difficult to work with, especially since I'm used to the other older, so I think I'm missing a certain button or article or something. I don't even know. So my question is, how to split a video by half, add a picture and make sure that my voice is match with my mouth & video. Moreover, I do not have voice on it or add audio. Quite simply, I filmed a video of me talking.

  Since you use Movie Maker 6 and not Live Movie Maker, what follows
  tutorial composed originally for XP, Movie Maker, you should get started

  For the timeline, drag a second copy of the video to Audio / Music
  follow and drag it left or right to align on the Audio track.

  Then right-click / mute the Audio track.

  Now, you can split the video anywhere you want... CTRL + L... and delete
  a section... then insert a Photo and give it the same length as the
  segment you removed.

  Here's another method:

  Split your video clip on each side of the area where will be the stills.

  Now... drag the part cut on the audio / music. BTW... If you want to
  to add a second 5 again... Remove 5 seconds of the video clip. (info below
  splitting if you need it)

  Drag your fixed shots to the timeline and drop it off at the place where
  you have deleted the video.

  The Audio clip on the audio / music can be dragged to the right or left to
  adjust its position.

  More information about the Division...

  "Split a Clip in MM2.1.

  Drag the audio clip on the timeline.

  Play the video/audio by clicking on the 'Play' button under the display screen.

  You will see the playback indicator (vertical line), advancing through the
  timeline.

  Click on the "Pause" button at the location where you want to cut and type...
  CTRL + L or click the "Split" button at the bottom of the display screen.
  (you can also make adjustments by dragging the playback indicator)

  Make splits as much as you want and remove unwanted in law clips
  Click on / delete.

• Error file corrupted or incompatible, cannot import files MP3 to Windows Movie Maker.

  Original title: Amazon MP3 in Windows Movie Maker import problems.

  Still have Windows XP.  Bought and download MP3s on Amazon, but is unable to import into Windows Movie Maker.  Says file corrupt (all of them) or is not compatible (MP3 should be).  I tried to convert it to WAV and WMA - still will not work.  Get desperate.  I would be very happy any help you could provide.  Thanks in advance.

  Experienced same problem with Amazon MP3 downloads.  Could not bring to import into Movie Maker.  Read somewhere to convert WMA of the song, but couldn't find out how to do this.  I wanted to download 3rd party software.  Had already created the CD with the songs that I wanted to use mm.   Ripped from this CD for PC with Windows Media Player, which gives you option to change the format.  Changed the format to WMA format and then imported into Movie Maker.  After all, hope this time it helps you, too.

• Impossible to import a clip in Windows Live movie maker or regular Windows movie maker avi video

  Original title: Director of windows

  I can't import a clip avi video in windows movie maker direct or regular windows movie maker. Only the audio comes through. If I have the video edited and produced in other video software, such as cyberlinkthen the video and audio will come by for me to change. I am able to import it into windows movie maker. I use vista 64-bit. What should I do to make this work? Do I need a special codec? I use a hp pavilion p6140f computer

  Hi Michael,

  1. This only happens with a particular file type?

  This seems to be a codec problem. Some files supported by Windows movie maker again you will need to install a codec before you can use the files in Windows Movie Maker.

  You can use your favorite search engine to download and install a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by Windows Movie Maker
