Windows MMV importing AVIs as audio files only
Brand new computer running Vista Home Premium 64-bit. I tried downloading the Vista codecs pack and also the Xvid codecs (as that's what Gspot told me I needed for these AVIs) and now I can get them to play in Windows Media Player but Movie Maker still won't import/identify them as video files, only audio. (I have restarted both the program and the computer a few times, with no luck.) I've also tried going under Tools--Options--Compatibility and unchecking the AVI decompression box (have tried it with box both checked and unchecked). Any other ideas? -- TaraGel

Movie Maker runs as 64-bit on the 64-bit system. Thus you would need a 64-bit version of the codec in question. -- Speaking for myself only.

-Movie Maker runs as 64-bit on the 64-bit system. Thus you would need a- -64-bit version of the codec in question.- I downloaded a Vista Codec pack (which I'm guessing must be 64-bit) from shark007.net which said I wouldn't need any other codecs, but you think I also need a separate 64-bit Xvid codec? -- TaraGel

In my experience Xvid rarely works at all in movie maker, even if you have
the right codec installed, so I'd recommend converting this file to a wmv video file. Lots of free apps will do it, some listed here http://www.myvideoproblems.com/WebPa...Programmes.htm -- Graham Hughes MVP Digital Media www.myvideoproblems.com "TaraGel" wrote in message ... -Movie Maker runs as 64-bit on the 64-bit system.
