Movie Maker in Windows 7

Although it doesn't come with any version of Movie Maker, I copied all the folders from other systems onto an external drive, didn't register any DLLs, and checked them in Windows 7 by opening the executable from Win7.
At my first found of checks, they all work... I now have 5 versions of Movie Maker running in Windows 7
MM1 from the first version of XP
MM2.1 from XP MCE
MM2.6 from Vista Home Basic
MM6 from Vista Home Basic
Windows Live Movie Maker and Photo Gallery from Vista Home Basic

I'm not currently running MM6 under Windows 7 so I can't test it.... I'm working with MM2.1 on it, along with Windows Live Movie Maker beta..... Here's a copy of tip #3 on my website's Vista > Publish Movie page...
3 - In addition to the standard choices, custom profiles can be used as in MM2. Most of them can be simply copied from an XP system to the same folder in Vista (... Movie Maker\Shared\Profiles) and used without revision. Create the folder if it isn't there. See the Save Movies > Custom WMV Profiles page for more info and some downloadable profiles.
Create or edit profiles with the same Profile Editor used in XP. Those from the Expression Media Encoder will also work.
I have HD quality custom profiles for download... see the Save Movies > Custom WMV Profiles page.
PapaJohn www.papajohn.org
But MM6 that comes with Windows Vista already has the HD profiles PapaJohn, and I'd much prefer to use the ones that were in my prior package than have to create my own. The method you gave works with MM2.1 in Vista, but does not work with the Vista MM, either running in Vista or in W7 OS. There has to be a way to incorporate the Vista MM6 profiles into the W7 environment if they can just be located. They are not in the Movie Maker folder that comes with Vista, so there must be a .dll file in the System32 folder or somewhere that has the magic bullet.

Ugh...Windows Movie Maker, Quicktime, Windows and Mac...oh my...

Alright, so I really need help...
I made a video for someone using Windows Movie Maker, before I was informed that he uses a Mac.
I can't figure out HOW ON EARTH to edit video clips and splice them together on Quicktime. He can't download anything, like Flip4Mac that has been suggested before, so I don't know what to do.
Can anyone help me!? I don't know what else to do! ='(
--Kourtney

Go to the QuickTime Help and click on the Editing and Authoring section. That will give you an overview of the process. You can also find some of that information here:

Quicktime movies in Movie Maker for Windows XP

I would like to use parts of the videos I purchased from iTunes in my movie maker for pleasure, not for selling or anything like that.
But Movie Maker won't accept them.
Is there a way I can do this? If I purchase Quicktime Pro will I be able to download MPeg4 movies(Quicktime) to my Movie Maker.
Thanks for any help

windtalker64, if it's a .mov you cannot take it into movie maker, it has to be converted to a .avi for movie maker to accept it. I used QT pro to convert a .mov to a .avi, took it into movie maker and it then became a .wmv, which is what I was trying to do. I'm going back 3 years ago when I did this so unless things have changed?

I want to use finished animations in Windows Movie Maker

I use Flash cs6 and I have finished my first animation and want to finish the whole video on Windows Media Player.
- I have tried Publishing it in different files. Non are accepted in the program.
- I have tried Exporting it in different files. Still non are accepted in the program.
- And I have tried using video converters (so far they were pretty rubbish). The files aren't accepted by the converters.
Please help, I wanted to finish this all before a week ago :/

what do you mean by, "...finish the whole video in windows media player"?
win media player only plays certain video file types (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/file-types-supported-media-center#1TC=windows-7) and flash can only export certain video file types, but i don't think you can do any editing in win media player.
if you mean win movie maker (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-live/movie-maker-file-types-faq) like your title suggests, mov files are supported by both (win movie maker and flash) though you will probably need quicktime installed on your win system to use it.

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

Avi plays in Windows Live Movie Maker but probs in Quicktime and Premiere Pro

Hello,
I'm completely new to Premiere Pro and am trying to edit a recording of a webinar for work. I have it in both .avi and .wmv formats but can't import either into Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 or CS5.5. They both play in Windows Media Centre, Windows Live Movie Maker and Windows Media Player, but the audio is corrupted and no images appear when I play in Quicktime with the avi and when I try to play the wmv in Quicktime it says the file is not in a format that Quicktime understands. When I try to import either into Premiere Pro I get the error message "Unsupport format or Damaged File". I've used Gspot to determine that the codecs I need are installed and am at a loss in terms of what to do next. I've spent literally hours on this and would dearly love some help. Can anybody shed light on my problem? With many thanks in advance. Shan

Hi Jim,
It said 0x0055 MPEG-1 Layer 3, 44100Hz 128 kb/s tot , Stereo for the audio
and H264, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC for the video.
Thanks for looking at this for me.

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.
* As always, exercise caution when using Shareware. So far my own experience has been good.

I am using Sony Handycam DCR-HC2 camcoder and my laptop is sony vaio vgn-nr160e. Before upgrading to windows 7, I was able to capture home made movie with Click to DVD program via i-link cable with vista home.
From the time I update to Windows 7, I am unable to capture home movies. Presently I am using windows movie maker 2.6. When I connect my handycam to laptop with i-link, it won't reconize.
Please some one guide me, we are planning a 2 week vacation and I am going crazy with this issued ( I am an avg tech guy, not a expt)

I have
Windows 7 RC
Sony handycam DCR-TRV19
Sony iLink cable
Full Windows Live package installed
and have had similar results.
With the Sony cable (verses a 4 pin to 4 pin cable) I do get DV IN on the camera when I connect.
But in device manager it does not show up under IEEE or as an Image Device :-(
That's as far as I have gotten. Hoping someone can find the little nugget to get this going.

How to edit JVC/Panasonic/Canon .mod video in Windows Movie Maker then upload to YouTube for sharing

Quick View:
Part 1: How to import .mod video to Windows Movie Maker
Part 2: How to edit the video with Windows Movie Maker
Part 3: How to upload your video to YouTube
Know More:
1. Which Camcorders record video in .MOD type?
2. What file types are supported by Windows Movie Maker?
3. What file types are supported by YouTube?
Part 1: How to import .mod video to Windows Movie Maker
Step 1: Load files
First copy the MOD file from your video camera to your hard drive, then download, install and run MOD Converter, click the "Add Files" button to browse your computer hard disc and load the MOD/TOD video files you want to convert to the program.
Step 2: Output Setting
In the bottom of the main interface, select an output format supported by Windows Movie Maker for each video file and specify a directory on your computer to save the output files.
Step 3: Start convert
Click "Start" button on right bottom of the main interface, you are allowed to start conversion.
Step 4: Import converted video to Windows Movie Maker
Click on "File". Then click on "Import". A window will appear. In the window, navigate to the video clip you converted just now. Then double click on the file. You'll see the icon for the file in your Windows Movie Maker "Collections".
Part 2: How to edit the video with Windows Movie Maker
Step 1: Add transitions and special effects
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Edit Movie, click View video transitions.
Preview transitions by double-clicking them and watching the Preview Monitor. Once you've found a transition you like, drag it from the Video Transitions pane, under Edit Movie pane to the box between two of your clips. This inserts the transition between the two clips.
Step 2: Add titles and credits
If you want to add a title before, after, or on top of a clip, click the clip on the storyboard or timeline.
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Edit Movie, click Make titles or credits.
Step 3: Add Music
In the Movie Tasks pane in Movie Maker, under Capture Video, click Import audio or music.
In the Import File dialog box, click the name of the song you want to use in the background. Then click Import. This adds your song to your collection but does not add it to your video. Drag the song from the collection to the video clip where you want the music to start playing.
Step 4: Add narration
If you have a desktop computer, connect a microphone. Microphones are available from most electronics stores. If you have a portable computer, you can use the built-in microphone. However, you will get a better-quality recording if you connect an external microphone. In Movie Maker, click the Tools menu, and then click Narrate Timeline. On the timeline, click the clip you want to narrate. You can narrate clips one at a time, or you can narrate the entire movie all at once. If you narrate individual clips, you can rearrange them later and keep your narration synchronized. If the narration is too loud or too soft in comparison to the movie, right-click the narration on your timeline, and then click Volume.
Step 5: To save your movie to your computer
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Finish Movie, click Save to my computer.
The Save Movie Wizard appears. On the Save Movie File page, type a name for your movie. You can also choose a folder to save it in by clicking the Browse button, but My Videos (the default) is usually the best place to save your movie. Then click Next. On the Movie Setting page, click Next to accept the default setting of Best quality for playback on my computer.
Movie Maker saves your movie, which might take several minutes. On the Completing the Save Movie Wizard page, click Finish. If Play movie when I click Finish was selected (it is selected by default), the movie will automatically play in Windows Media Player. Now you can watch your videos anytime by opening your My Videos folder and double-clicking your movie.
Part 3: How to upload my video to YouTube
A video file should meet the following requirements so that it can be uploaded to YouTube site.
1. In an acceptable format: WMV, MPEG4, MOV, AVI and MPEG.
2. Video length is shorter 10 minutes.
3. File size is smaller than 1GB.
Step 1: Sign up a YouTube account or Gmail account, then click the Upload button on any YouTube web page. See the figure below:
Step 2: Type in the information of your video file, including Title, Description, Category and tags. To increase the chances that your video can be easily found, you should put as much information as possible.
Step 3: Set this video to be public or private.
Step 4: Click the "Upload a video" button. When you see the next window, click the "Browse" button to select the video file you want to upload. Then click the "Upload Video" button to upload it. After the upload is finished, you will see the completion page. See the figure below:
Step 5: Click "My Videos" and you will see the video.

Windows Vista Movie Maker and Itunes Music

I am asking for help and apologize if I am in the wrong area - we just purchased a computer and I need some help - we have an HP that came w/ Windows Vista. I am trying to make a movie on Windows Movie Maker and tried to import a song from Itunes that I purchased and it keeps coming up w/ an error about my system not having the codec. I have no idea what this means and need to know if I am doing something wrong. Any help/direction would be greatly appreciated-I am trying to make a movie w/ my all my daughters pictures-she will be 1 this month-I know TMI, sorry. Thank you again

Well, there are two problems probably:
1. I'm not sure if Windows Movie Maker can use AAC format files, and all of the files you download through iTunes are in AAC format.
2. Even if Windows Movie Maker can use AAC format files (which I doubt it can), the AAC files through iTunes are DRM-encoded, which means they have copywrite protection which prevents their use outside of a specific set of iPods/iTunes.
If you want to use that particular song in your movie, it would be best to either find a source that is not copy-protected to download it from (notice I didn't suggest downloading it illegally ;>), or ... you can buy a CD with that song on it, and then rip it to MP3 to import into Windows Movie Maker.

I am trying to use songs I purchased from iTunes in my video using Windows Movie Maker. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

I am trying to use songs I purchased from iTunes, from my library if you will, in my video (slideshow) using Windows Movie Maker.
Does anyone know if that is possible to do? If so, would you please tell me how to do that?

Hello, a1p2r3.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
There are a couple options available to you to transfer purchased media to your computer. Below, I have included a couple articles that outline this process.
