My videos sound works fine when I view the original copy. When I open it in Windows Movie Maker the sound won't work for an imported video.?

The file's audio could be corrupt... But it is most likely that it the video is incompatible with Windows Movie Maker. Sometimes video is exported (mixed-down) with audio properties requiring codec applications different from those incorporated by the program.I would try converting the video to a format Windows Movie Maker uses:.asf, .avi, dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, .wmvThis will export the current video in Windows Movie Maker format. You should then be able to view it in Windows Media Player and import it into Windows Movie Maker.


Why can't i use videos from my flip camcorder on windows movie maker?

Because the file is in .MP4 and uses the H.264 codec. And also windows movie maker does not support flip camcoder video directly. So you have to use a flip video converter to convert flip video to wmm compatible wmv, avi, mpg. I can recommend you a professional one that I am using all the time. It works pretty fine for me. http://www.vconsoft.com/flip-video-converter/import-flip-video-to-windows-movie-maker/ You may have a try. It sure can help you!
