These are some questions that I've gotten so far. I thought I would share them in case someone else has the same question:
Q: I can't import the audio into Windows Movie Maker (WMM). It says the file is corrupted. What should I do?
A: I would suggest trying the following if you run into problems importing clips to WMM:
- Try restarting your computer. Sometimes your computer just needs a fresh start.
- If you downloaded the file you're trying to import, delete it and re-download it.
- Check to see if you have the latest version of Movie Maker. If not, you can download it for free from Microsoft.
- Run a virus scan on your computer to see if a virus is interfering with your program.
Hopefully, one of these will work.
Q: I have video clips on tape that I recorded and want to use in my video. I don't have the DV cable to import them into my computer. How can I get my video in my computer without buying the DV cable?
A: I don't know of any way to import footage from a camcorder without using the DV cable. Sorry. But, you might check local businesses to see if there's a company that will convert your video tapes to DVDs. If you can do that, you can use a DVD ripping software to import the video footage to your computer. ImToo is has a free, trial version that allows you to rip 5 minute segments at a time.
