  Windows Movie Maker

  I have the Vista operating system.  I'm opening the camcorder videos in Windows Movie Maker, and I get the error message:

  =============================
  The .wpl files are probably Windows Media
  Playlist of files... not real video files.

  Here is some info on the .wpl files:

  You can find real video files... maybe
  in your videos folder?

• Windows Movie Maker doesn't let me import video files to one. MOV extension. Help please!

  The error message tells me that it's because I don't have a codec installed on my computer.

  Movie Maker is not compatible with QuickTime. MOV

  There are many programs that can do conversions...
  The following freeware is an example...:

  Format Factory
  http://www.pcfreetime.com/
  (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip
  (FWIW... installation..., you might want to
  Uncheck the box 'all' boxes on the last screen)

  First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
  Drag FFSetup260.exe out of the folder
  and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

  First... after the download and installation of Format
  Factory... you can open the program and
  left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
  "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
  (this is where you find your files after they)
  are converted)

  Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

  Select "all to WMV" / OK...

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

  That should do it...

  Good luck...

  I am changing a video on Windows Movie Maker (5.1), and when I cut a piece of the file clip and trimmed other part beside him, some delay seconds started with the change.

• Windows Movie Maker spans video

  I use Windows Movie Maker 5.1 on XP.

  When I import a video portrait in WMM, it spans the video to fill the preview, making the video look "fat". When I save the movie, the output seems tense.

  Is it possible to maintain the original dimensions of the video, thus leaving a black space on the sides of the video?

  Did some research and it helped:

  http://www.windowsmoviemakers.NET/forums/ShowPost.aspx?&PostID=15544

  It turns out that wmm does not maintain the proportions. At first, I imported my wmv video and turned using wmm, but it was tense. So I went and shot using another program to make potrait. When I imported it again, it is also tense. It turns out that that's the long way round. Sorry if I did not mention the full detail. I used the effect of 'spin the right person' and it worked. Thank you

• My Canon Power Shot D10 and Flip Ultra HD take videos that are NOTaccepted by Windows Movie Maker because of the type of file.

  This converter is recommended for cameras above so that I can edit, trim & merge video clips of the cameras above for use in Windows Movie Maker? I am able to download the. Files MOV of the Canon Power Shot D10 in MY DVD but each clip plays individually without a smooth merger. When I tried to merge the clips using a free download Wondershare clips merged but no audio came through. Now I have a Flip Ultra HD, which has MP4 files. Thanks for the tips.

• Windows movie maker problem: video cut or turns off

  I have windows vista on my computer and I tried to use the windows movie maker program to make a music video.  the video I got was originally in MP4 format so I used Format Factory to convert WMV (I also did AVI).  for some reason when I'm working on the video images goes off and I can't see the stage.  Sometimes I get the picture but most of the time I don't have.  I also tried to use AVI format but the problem is always the same.

  I read and I think it would be that the resolution could be the problem, if so, how can I change that on Format Factory?
  It could also be that Format Factory is perhaps not good enough, are there other free conversion programs I could use?
  other than that, I don't know why the image freezes (music plays again)
  any kind of help will be greatly appreciated!

  Format Factory is a good converter but I also
  find FreeMake Video Converter to be useful:

• Windows Movie Maker doesn't let me import my music because I need codecs. How and where can I get codecs?

  This is what comes up when I try to add music:

  The file cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to re-import the file.

  I tried to restart Windows Movie Maker, but it did not work.

  What is the format of the file music? Sometimes. MP3 files
  and others can be problematic and convert them to the

• Windows Movie Maker: Small video and green screen

  I've been taking videos on Movie Maker for quite awhile and I've never had a problem until today. I've got this show that I have edited. The preview reading is perfectly fine and everything works normally and then I publish. Publication is going smoothly, but something must of happened between this amount of time, because the video is now scrunch all upward on the top (its dimensions are now all distorted to extend over the screen to halfway) and on the bottom half there is just a green screen. It occurs only after the publication. I tried to change an option that I use when publishing... did the same thing. Then I thought maybe it was some kind of title effect I used... it's not. I tried to delete all the effects on my thing and editing like that... This isn't the problem. The only thing that could be a problem, it's that it's a different file, then I usually use I think that... I had like a torrent file, but when I look, it works well and is not. So I do not understand... any suggestions?

• Windows Movie Maker does not show the extire file

  original title: VOB's with Windows Movie Maker and Windows Media Player.

  Ok.  I have a DVD that was made of a VHS tape.  There are several VOB files only when you open with Windows Media Player are still drop and are less than an hour long.  I want to take out of hours of video clips and post them to YouTube.  I used WIndows Movie Maker to edit my videos.  When I opened one of the videos with WMM, it will display only 14:41 the vidoes and not all of it.  I've seen the proposed changes to the MPG or WMV file extension.  I made a copy of one of the VOB files and renamed the extension to MPG.  Now when I play this copy of this file, as it is now is only 14:41.  He did the same thing when I tried to change WMV.  I need to know how to get the entire file appears in Movie Maker.  I tried to use Any Video Converter but it will show up only there as a 14:41 file as well.  I copied all the files on the DVD also.  There are two of them. BUP and two. It is of the IFO files.  Here are the videos from a friend of mine who was a boxer.  He passed away this summer and I want to download these videos in tribute to him.  Any help would be great.  Thank you.

  Thanks for the info.  I was think there later that day and I was wondering why when I play all the VOB's to he it's all the same hour on video.  So I opened the first with Movie Maker and added then the following for her, there were five in total.  After you have added all the he composed the entire hour long video.  All I had to do is then save it and now it is in WMV format so now I can modify it.  Thanks for your good help.

• Windows Movie Maker (Vista) stuck on 'check project files', does not and will not load past to halfway.

  Hey guys,.

  I have been editing videos using Windows Movie Maker with great success, but I have recently installed the K-Lite Codec pack (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/k_lite_codec_pack.htm)

  and since then, Movie Maker will not load one of my projects.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled the codecs but I feel I did something for the Movie Maker of the program itself, installing the codec pack, it came with a list of files it wanted to replace. As I obviously had no idea what I was doing, I just said yes to everything that was recommended. I don't know for the life of me exactly what files were etc however, it seems Director impact because now it does not load the project files.

  It's such an embarrassment because I don't know what is happening and really need this problem as soon as POSSIBLE. Any help would be appreciated.

  If you still have questions... do a Safe Mode system restore
  at a time before installing the codec pack could be useful.
