how to add directory to collection's

[N.A.W.]

I am trying to make a new project. I have a dirrectoy that has all my movies
in it. When I go to Import into collections it will only import one. How do
I change it so that the whole directory is added to collection?

Thanks

Just select all the movies, and it will import them all.

select all of the movies in the folder rather than the folder itself

Hello,

When you have the open dialog in front of you click any one of the videos so
that it highlighted. Then press CTRL-A. There is a draw back though...would you
believe that Movie Maker does not recognise that you are doing a multiple
import and diligently creates loads of sub folders in the Collection....one for
each video.....and it would have been so easy to do it the logical way.....

Yes you are correct, it does make a folder for each movie I import. When I
first used MM2 back in the summer when I uploaded videos from digital
recorder it did not put them in seperate folders they were all viewable in
the one collection.

Still having problem whenI import it makes new collevtion folders instead of
adding them into one collection folder.
