All you need to do is convert the flip video to one of the file name extensions (formats) used by Windows Movie Maker:
.asf, .avi, dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, .wmv
Free video converters are available online. Simply Google: free video converters and download one. Once you have a video converter installed on your computer, open the program.
Locate the Flip video and add it to the conversion list. Change the Output Source Format to one of the file name extensions listed above. Be sure to choose your Output Path (saving destination) as well. Click Convert.
