I just recieved an old family video transfered to dvd by Walmart. I have
never used Windows Movie maker and when I try to import the video, it states
"file name invalid" or "file not found, verify correct name" when I type in
* * in file name, A list of names appear, and when I put in each one I get
the same response. There has to be a way to do this...right?

John,

thanks for trying to help. I am virtually a computer novice, and cannot
believe that this family video can be so hard to share. I can understand
having commercial DVD's in a format that is hard to share, but shouldn't any
company that transfers home videos for the consumer have it in a format that
can be shared since it is not a licensing issue? I guess it is best just to
have this 3 minute DVD duplicated several times at great cost to share it
with my family. Glad I spent $1,300 on a new computer!
