I'm downloading some video clips from the net, and some stuff I have taken
myself, but when I try to put them on my Movie maker in the timeline, they
are just recognized as video clips. Anyone ever run into this before?
 
Close out whatever other media application you are using. If necessary,
reboot the PC.
 
I tried that, even going so far as to power down the entire system and then
restart. It still converts an MPEG (clearly stated in the other file) into
an MPA.
 
Read a large number of posts on here....you'll see that Mpegs do not work
well in Movie Maker. You need to 'convert' to another format like WMV, AVI
etc. I use AVS Video Converter (from www.avsmedia.com) but there are other
free ones which can be used. Read a bunch of posts on this matter and see
what others suggest... you can check the website at www.videohelp.com for a
wealth of information. Good luck.
