Can Encore 2.0 import file from Windows Movie Maker?

I have just purchased and installed Encore 2.0, so I am a true novice. I have a few movies I created using Windows Movie Maker and wanted to import them into Encore 2.0; however, when I try to do so I get a message telling me that "the software used to decode is not available on this system." Is there away for me to fix this problem, or is Encore not capable of importing these files?
Thanks for any help!!!

Actually, Encore does support WMV files. I just imported an AVI into Movie Maker and exported it as a WMV file at the default settings and it imported fine into Encore.
Apparently there's something about the WMV files in question that Encore doesn't like, however. From the error message I'd suspect that the codec used to export the file is missing. Is the system you're running Encore on the same system you used to export from Movie Maker? If not, you might want to try loading your Movie Maker project files onto the same system and re-exporting them. Also double-check that the settings for the exported movie correspond to a legal video format (although you'd probably get a different error message if that was the cause).

  • Can you convert a favourites file from windows to a bookmark file for mac?

    can you convert a favourites file from windows to a bookmark file for mac?

    I can't answer for Internet Explorer but you should be able to export Bookmarks from FireFox. If you can't export from IE you may be able to import from EI to FireFox first.
    In FireFox, menu BookMarks>Organize Bookmarks, then in the pane which opens, menu File>Export (that's how it works on Linux so Windows should be broadly similar). The result should be an html file.
    You may be able to import this into Safari on your Mac; certainly you should be able to import it into FireFox and perhaps from there to Safari if necessary.

  • How to import itune file to windows movie maker

    When I try to import an itune file to windows movie maker the error message says a necessary codec file is missing...how can i perform this import?

    Find where on the computer the song files are.  Then go into iTunes, use the command File > Add Folder to LIbrary, and navigate it to the folder(s) that contain the songs.
    If the files are in MP3 format, they will be added to iTunes immediately.  If they are in unprotected WMA format, iTunes will convert them (one at a time) and add theconverted copy to the iTunes Library, leaving the original in place.

  • M30x MultiDrive will not burn DVDs from Windows Movie Maker

    Hi,
    My M30x MultiDrive will not burn DVDs from Windows Movie Maker and other applications.
    I have also had problems burning CDs (unbranded) from Windows XP, built in utility.
    Does the multidrive have problems, with cheaper brand disks?
    Just to note,
    The laptop has been back to the support guys three times so far with various issues.
    (1) The hard drive failed.
    (2) The multidrive failed.
    (3) The motherboard got replaced, because of power failures, it wouldnt charge the battery or recognise that the power adapter was plugged in.
    Note: The harddisk, not the exhaust fan makes the most noise in mine!
    Thanks

    Hi
    As far as I know the preinstalled burning software (i.e. record now, drag ndrop) disabled the Windows XP burning option. In this case if you want to use the Movie Maker or Windows media player burning option, you should to enable this possibility.
    Please go to driver properties (right click). Please select the Recording tab. The option Enable CD recording on this drive should be marked.
    I use the Nero burning software and in my opinion its a one of the best burning programs. Furthermore you should try different CD/DVD manufacturers because some CDs and DVDs are not compatible with some drives. Check the TDK CDs and DVDs. I never had any problems with these medias.
    Best regards

  • Transfer of Video from Windows Movie Maker to PE7

    Hi,
    I put together my first video using Windows Movie Maker, and the audio tracks are wma files. I just got Premiere Elements 7 and want to transfer the video to it from Movie Maker, but I understand that in PE7 audio files should be either mp3 or wav.
    Is there a way to make the transfer so that I'll be able to burn the video to DVD after getting it into PE7?
    Thanks!

    Why not export from Windows MovieMaker as DV-AVI.... (See this FAQ on exportinmg from WMM as DV-AVI http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0) then bring this into PE7. Note sometimes you can have audio issues with the type 1 DV-AVI that WMM produces. In this case use the free DVDate (http://paul.glagla.free.fr/dvdate_en.htm) to convert the type 1 to type 2... it is very fast and lossless.

  • Importing Songs to Windows Movie Maker

    I am trying to use some of my iTunes songs on a photo dvd/movie I'm making for a friend in Windows Movie Maker. I have tried burning an audio cd, a data cd, and an mp3 cd. iTunes will not let me burn the mp3 cd, and Windows Movie Maker "doesn't support" the other formats.
    Any ideas on how I can get my songs onto my photo cd?
    Thanks in advance and happy holidays, Aileen

    i'm having a problem too. i can't find where to go to post a new topic this site isn't great at having that stand out...but anyways i want to make a movie and i got all these great songs i got from itunes...but i can't use most of them. just recently i did some stuff and now i can access some that i got on this computer. on my last computer i bought songs off itunes but then it started to crash so i saved them to a huge memory drive and then reimported them to my new computer. None of those songs work but the ones i've gotten on this computer so far do...it says something about the codec not being supported but i don't know where to go to download a codec or whatever it's talking about. Someone please help.

  • Importing song to windows movie maker

    I am unable to import a purchased song into my windows movie maker.  Purchased many songs before. This is the first song that wouldn't download.  Please help.  Thx

    Your downloaded music is in Apple's AAC(m4a) format and Windows Movie Maker does not accept this format.  You can convert it to mp3 in iTunes.
    Itunes menu, EDIT/PREFERENCES, GENERAL tab.  Go in IMPORT SETTINGS, under IMPORT USING, you have various Encoder, AAC. AIFF, APPLE LOSSLESS, MP3 and WAV.  Select MP3 encoder, then OK and OK.
    Right mouse click the song(s) in music library will give you a Menu which includes CREATE MP3 version.

  • Problem with import files from windows media player into iTunes

    When I have tried to import my .wav lossless files created under windows media player into iTunes I use File, add folder to library but when the action is completed I get all of the files under the heading 'unknown album' with 'unknown artist'.
    Does anyone know that I need to do in order to include the artist and album ?
    Many thanks,
    John.

    You'll first need to add the MP3s to your iTunes library since the iPod is not compatible with Windows Media Player. You can use, for example, the File > Add to Library menu to do this.

  • Exporting .dv files to supported files types for Windows Movie Maker

    I am digitizing all of my friends' family videos with iMovie and I now have them all as Apple .dv files. Unfortunately some of my freinds do not have Macs, so I must convert them. There are many options for converting .dv files to formats that Windows Movie Maker can import, but every combination of wrapper and codec I have tried has either resulted in low quality or results in a size that it is at least double. Because these are family memories I do not want to lose quality compared to the Apple Mac .dv files that I have. On the other hand, I would prefer not to double the file size for the same quality that I had.
    What converter do you recommend and what combination of wrapper (mpeg4, avi, mov, etc.) and codec (h264, jpeg, etc.) can convert Mac .dv files into full resolution files for Windows Movie Maker?
    What I have tried:
    I was advised by Applecare to try DivX converter, but it does not accept .dv files. I have been trying Mpeg Streamclip with the following combinations:
    exporting to AVI with DivX Codec seemed low quality
    exporting to AVI with H.264 was not readable by Windows Movie Maker
    exporting to AVI with Apple Photo JPEG Codec was more than twice the orginal .dv file size
    Thanks.

    best to my knowledge - no.
    .dv is a standard, created by movie-cams. iMovie handles this codec 'natively'.
    only allowed differences are PAL and NTSC …
    I copied a zillion .dv files without processing/editing directly from the Events folder onto a fat32-formatted HDD.
    but even edited movies are compatible: Export using Quicktime and in the drop down DV-STREAM ...
    afaik, in Movie Maker you have to choose 'Import file'  - done.
    sorry, no idea which of the hundred of versions of WMM is in use on the other side of the street

  • IPod Nano Video with Windows Movie Maker

    I found this page by Apple that explains how to use video from the 5G iPod Nano, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3837
    But, I cannot find Windows Movie Maker V2.5, and V2.1 with Windows XP will not import the video from the iPod Nano. Anybody have any ideas on how to solve this? (Besides buying a Mac...)
    Also, Windows Media Player 11 will not play the video created with the 5G iPod Nano either.

    You can use the AVS Video Editing software to import MPEG-4 Movie files in the same way you'd import .avi files into Windows Movie Maker. Also, the AVS Video Editor will allow you to import iTunes .mp4 audio files and incorporate them into your soundtrack. If you still want to use Windows Movie Maker for your video editing you can also use video conversion software from the same company, i.e. AVS Video Converter 6, to convert from MPEG-4 into .avi or .wmv format. I've found converting to .wmv to be considerably slower than converting to .avi though. Here's a link to the AVS video software offerings below. BTW, the AVS Video Editor can be used for free, while there's a charge for the Converter.

  • I Tunes and Windows Movie Maker

    Having problems importing i Tunes music files into Windows Movie Maker.  When I search for them, the do not immediately show up as Audio Music files.  I have to force them to appear in the i Tunes file by selecting "all files".  They then show up as .m4a files.  What are these?  Secondly when I attempt to import these m4a i Tunes files, Movie Maker stops responding.  Can anyone tell me how to import i tunes files into Windows programs?

    You're nearly there, tilleo. We need to adjust your Importing preferences to mp3 (rather than aac) in order to change the Create AAC version into a Create MP3 version.
    In iTunes, go Edit > Preferences. In the General preferences, click the "Import Settings" button:
    In the import settings box, try selecting "MP3 Encoder and "Higher Quality":
    OK out of the Import Settings, and OK out of the General Preferences tab.
    From now on, as well as seeing a "Create MP3" option, CDs will also import using the MP3 encoder, so you won't have to convert them for Movie Maker. (Songs you buy from the iTunes Store, however, would still be AAC, so you'd still need to convert those before using them in Movie Maker.)
