Windows Movie Maker will not import some video clips


Question Posted Wednesday December 9 2009, 8:42 pm

I found this site so helpful as a first time user of Windows Movie Maker but have encountered a problem. I was able to import many videos with no problem, however, there are 6 or 7 that will not import. The message I get says the selected file is not valid or is corrupted. These video clips play fine in Real Player and Quick Time Player. The only difference I've noticed is that the size of these are 2 to 3 GB after conversion from MPEG-4 to AVI (using RAD Video Tools) but the playing time is no longer than the other videos. Have looked for free editing software in hopes of cutting their size down (not my preferred solution) but having trouble finding that also. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
