I could do everything I needed to in WMM that was bundled with Vista Home Prem (I imagine it’d be v.6) EXCEPT publish. (I’m putting together personal videos to an MP3 track). Didn’t realise the number of codecs from other install programs I had on, turned them all off and so far it’s publishing now! THANKS!

Although I should say, if you’re going to get serious with vid editing, steer clear from WMM. It sucks ass.

I’m having a bit of a problem on viewing the files I import into movie maker:
The videos I import seem to play ok, but on the clips, I can view one clip great, but the rest are blanked out and only the audio seems to be working (And it’s happened on ALOT of clips).
What’s wrong with it, and how do I fix it?

Awesome, I was having the same problem. I googled “movie maker freezes when publishing” and this was the first page to come up. After following the simple steps I can now publish! YAY!

The file C:\Documents and Settings\Frankie-San\Desktop\iTunes Music\Jonas Brothers\Jonas Brothers1 S.O.S..m4p is not a supported file type, and it cannot be imported into Windows Movie Maker.
Can anyone help me?

I have a WindowsXP. I have lately been getting into creating my own music videos. I use my own songs, usually, and film from my FujiFilm FinePix camera. I guess the files I use are MPEG’s, but for some reason, Windows Movie Maker doesn’t work with them, although it says so when I look into the file types it’s compatible with. Also, my own songs aren’t working with the program either. They’re MP3’s. What can I do? What’s the best FREE music/video making software you know of?

The following post:

“Second, I believe your problem is tied directly to codecs. Select Options from the Tools menu, then flip to the Compatibility tab. From there, remove the checkmarks from every box. Restart Windows Movie Maker (for good measure). Now, are those MPEGs happy campers? If not, you might consider converting them or editing them in another video tool altogether.

Welcome to the hell of video production.”

solved my problem! Thank you! I searched high and low for this answer!
