Windows Movie Maker support files is a mod for editing?

From: cilge

Message: Hi I have a new PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. I also have a new camcorder JVC everio GZ MG 330. This has come with its own software for download from the camera, the mounting and so-called creation of DVD. I downloaded and edited my clips in a movie, but he refuses to burn to DVD. I'm hunting it upward with the people of software.

But my question is, when I tried to use Movie Maker instead, IE to import clips and edit, the program crashed after you start the process. I understand that JVC used a file extension is a mod (a version of Mpeg2?), which apparently does not support Movie Maker. It matters to them OK, but then does not play.

Microsoft plans to include an update to allow this 'new' type of file that will be used by Movie Maker? Or is there a method of conversion of the files of a more normal type. I can't get the software of JVC to save as avi or mpeg.

This type of device seems to be popular right now so I can't be alone here, any assistance received with gratitude thank you

check my website for film Source files > video > MOD page, they are MPEG2 files and need to be converted to something Movie Maker can handle.

  • Error when you try to open a Windows Movie Maker. MSWMM file: cannot be opened because it is not a valid windows movie maker project file

    Help! Says the file can't be flat, .mswmm file, but the program made the film.

    I used the Windows to make a film, I scanned 458 pictures, done my book of stories, etc. with music - took a month... I "published" and now when I go to open it it says ' cannot be opened because it is not a valid windows movie maker project file? But the Director did, now I can't open it to all, it has an .mswmm file extension! Help, it's a gift for my dad who is going to be 70 and I have not yet a month to make it again!

    Hi, I'm having a similar problem but have 1 idea as to why I can't open my .mswmm file. I have two xp machines running sp3, but a pro and a home edition if it matters.

    the file.mswmm I am trying to open was created on the moviemaker version 2.1.4028.0 and it still works fine on this machine. On the xp pro machine, he is Director of windows 2.1.4026.0.

    So I try to install the movie maker 28 to my other machine I have a lot of files created with the 28 I want to be able to change on the other computer.

    =============================================
    The project .mswmm file is best to use the system that created
    because it takes all the source files... Video clips, Photos, music
    files... always be available at the original location.

    Moving from one computer to another can work if you move as best
    all of the source files. When you open the .mswmm file you will see
    Xs red instead of thumbnails of the source but if you right click the red Xs
    You should be able to navigate to the new location of the files sources and re-
    establish the path.

  • 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.

  • Windows Movie Maker plays sound but no picture for the Sims 2 movies after installing the codec vp6vfw.dll - how to fix Movie Maker?

    Sims 2 was not properly installing its codec vp6vfw.dll film so I copy and pasted from Sims 1 CD in my windows > System 32.  Now when I play the Sims 2 game I can make movies.  They appear in Windows Media Player very well.  But they do not visually show in Windows Movie Maker.  I get sound.  How can I fix Windows Movie Maker to display my Sims 2 movies?

    I found the answer.  Windows Movie Maker is no longer supported.  The new version is Windows Live Movie Maker, and it has all the appropriate codecs.  Download that and you're good!

    What is the format of the music files? Could be interesting

    Just because a file is played in Windows Media Player

    Maker.

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv or dv - avi
    Music - wma, wav, wmv

    The following free Converter may be worth a try:

  • Windows Movie Maker "the file is protected using digital rights management and cannot be imported."

    I downloaded a large .wmv file last night and have to divide into 8 smaller parts, but when I try to "import media" in Movie Maker is stipulates that "the file is protected using digital rights management and cannot be imported.

    Is it possible to import the file to edit?

    Turnbite removes the DRM http://download.cnet.com/Tunebite/3000-2140_4-10783040.html but I still don't know if it would work with Movie Maker (only because I haven't used products - looks like it would work, but I'm not sure).  Here is a review of version 6 (the current version is 7): http://mp3.about.com/od/audiotools/fr/Tunebite_6_Rev.htm.  Apparently, he's copying your DRM files and so it is required to have at least some degradation (but not a lot from what I've read - not noticeable).  Because it's free, it can't hurt to try it and see if it solves the problem.

    AVS looks like he got a number of good products http://www.avsmedia.com/, but I don't think that one of them address the DRM issue.  I really didn't listen to music or watch videos on my PC very often so I'm not familiar with the products to do such things.  May I suggest you post your question in the music and its Forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistamedia/threads , where issues of music specialists will be more than happy to help you with your questions.   Or in the photos and video Forum at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistapictures/threads where the video specialists will be happy to help with you project of filmmaking.

  • . MOV in Windows Movie Maker Live files does not work

    I just installed WMML since I thought that it would support the .mov files without having to convert them.  I can see the video in the Windows Live photo/video gallery, but not in WMML when I open it up to edit video. The screen is all black with no video or sound.   I have Vista.  We just got a new digital camera to improve our videos, but are sad that we cannot use this software because we love him.   Help, please!

    What is the brand and model of the new camera?

    the HD version. Convert to WMV format can be

  • Window Movie Maker will import my .mpg file, but will not play audio.

    I used Windows Movie Maker 2.6, Vista and Live for many years and I've always been able to convert my files to .wmv with ease. My old computer recently crashed and I reinstalled the program and codec I had on my new machine.

    A week ago, I was import and conversion of some files to .mpg without problem what-so-ever, but when I import my .mpg files now, I receive one of the following scenarios:
    (1) ".mpg is an empty file." (2.6)
    (2) the video works fine, but there is no audio data. Yet, if I play in Windows Media Player or any other program, I get the audio without problem. (Vista and Live)
    (3) I also run Magix Movie Edit Pro 15, but when it exports to .wmv, the video is distorted / restless (even with the anti-flicker filter on).

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled my codecs several times, went to the compatibility of the Menus and tried to post the video to see if the audio could have a defect in playback of the program, but without success.

  • Windows Movie Maker project disappeared, need help!

    I was recently working on the 3rd video of the year for my daughter using Windows Movie Maker. I worked on it for a few months now. I save every 10 minutes or more. I was almost finished and clicked on save, and I got a popup that I was 'Out of Memory' that happens from time to time. Then I tried to save it under a different name, and then I got a new popup that says "unknown error." I decided to close Windows Movie Maker, and then restart the computer. I then noticed that the icon/file for my project was no longer visible. I checked the trash and he wasn't there. I did many searches for it on my computer with the file name and the file extension, nothing and also restored my computer to a few days earlier and the project file does not re - appeared.

    Hi napoleonfoo,

    Did you follow the steps provided by John Inzer?

    To better understand the issue, we need the following information:

    (a) what is the exact error that you receive when you import video into windows movie maker?

    (b) what is the file format of the video you are trying to import?

    (c) means the video sharing with each drive that you use or simply with a particular player?

    To clarify, you try to install a program (or download the program)?  What program are you trying to install? You get a specific error message?

    See the link below for the file format supported.

    Import video, images and audio in Windows Movie Maker

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/import-video-files-pictures-and-audio-into-Windows-Movie-Maker

    You can search online for the codec or convert the file into a format that windows movie maker can understand.
