Best Answer

The legend of red X's on doors is associated with the practice of marking homes during the Black Death in Europe. The X was believed to ward off plague by invoking the protection of Saint Roch, the patron saint of plague victims. It is said that homes marked with a red X were spared from the disease. This practice is not widely documented and its historical accuracy is debated among scholars.

Why the x when dragging video in wmm?

If there is a red X on your media, the original source file can no longer be located by Windows Movie Maker. RED Xs mean the original media used in the project has either been changed, moved, or deleted and is no longer available. Media with red Xs will have to be imported into the program again.
