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 audio/video synchronization problems

    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. Only, it starts at one point and continued for the rest of the video. I need to solve this problem, and I'm terrible with computers. Can someone help me sort whatsoever?

    It would be a massive help!

    You can drag the file to the audio / music

  • Sync audio/video Windows Movie Maker problem

    When you use Windows Movie Maker 5.1 to capture video from my Panasonic PV-GS39 DV camera, audio is 15 seconds ahead of the video.  Anyone know what is the cause or how to fix it?  No other programs are running at the time of the capture.

    Windows Movie Maker 5.1
    Windows XP Service Pack 3

    It is difficult to say why Windows Movie Maker would be to have this problem, but my recommendation would be to eliminate it from the video capture process. There is an excellent free program called WinDV you can use to capture video on your computer, then you can change using Windows Movie Maker, once the capture is complete. Video capture questions can be exasperating. Along with other instructions of troubleshooting, I explain why you might want to use WinDV in a tutorial on video troubleshooting.

  • 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:

    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

  • 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

    Michael

    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

    Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • 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?

  • Problem creating Windows DVD? Or Windows Movie Maker problem?

    Hello!  I created a slide show in Windows Movie Maker, which plays on my computer without problem.  Now, I try to burn it to a DVD by using the Windows DVD authoring application.  I was able to burn my DVDs sucessfully using the wizard and when I put it in the DVD player I get the main menu I created.

    I press play and start my video, but he plays 16 seconds and everything goes black.  Time continues to roll until the full 3 minutes are up, but I have 16 seconds of my film.  I burned 3 DVD and it did the same thing.

    Can someone help me with what I'm doing wrong?

    Have a. you been able to watch the video before burning?

    B. did burn the DVD?

    C. is the DVD burner connected properly

    D. is the audio work after the 16th s?

    E. do you have a mistake when he went to the black screen?

    This could be a problem with the burner DVD or the method of engraving. Try the following methods.

    Method 1
