Windows Movie Maker Question


Question Posted Sunday July 27 2008, 3:25 pm

I'm making a movie using Windows Movie Maker.
I have an MP3 file that I'm using for music, and when it's in a file folder, it says the length in 5:01 (same when I play it on iTunes). But when I import it to Windows Movie Maker, the file is 9:30! I don't understand what the problem is. When I put the file in my movie, I can't trim it to 5:01 because it cuts out a lot of the song. It's like they added in another chorus or something. It's so weird.
And also, if I play the song in the movie from the very beginning, it's normal and ends when it's supposed to (at 5:01). But, if I play it from the middle or something (for editing purposes) it cuts out at that weird place.

Help please! I really don't know what's going on with it...

Im not too sure if this will work for you but it does for me. Whenever I have a song that skips parts (or repeats) when I go to edit the timeline what I do is put just the song in the timeline then publish the audio file to your computer. (Just like how you "publish" videos but instead itll just have the audio file) Then upload that new audio file to your collections and then it will play properly and if there is extra length you will be able to cut it out without cutting any audio. I hope this works for you

**Click "browse" to upload your file. In step 2, choose "wma". In step 3, put in your email address. They'll send you a download link in 10 minutes or so.**

Convert it to wma using zamzar:

That'll probably fix it. If not, get a different version of the mp3.
