Hi all, I've been trying to edit the videos I take with my Kodak EasyShar
CX6445 4 mpx camera, but I can't edit with Windows Movie Maker because it
says that they are not supported file types. I do not understand how to fix
this problem. I have a friend who has the same type of camera and can edit
her videos fine on there.

This is the message I receive when I try to import my video file:
The file C:\Documents and Settings\Rebecca\My Documents\My Pictures\Kodak
Pictures\2006-09-29\100_2103.mov is not a supported file type, and it cannot
be imported into Windows Movie Maker.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong? I would greatly appreciate any help that I
can get on this!!

Thanks!
Rebecca
 
Rebecca,

I have the same problem. I tried to modify the video by clicking on
properties and then saving it as WMM but it did not work.

================================
QuickTime .mov files are not compatible
with Movie Maker. Your only option...if you
plan to use Movie Maker for your editing
is to convert the files to a compatible format.

The retail version of Apple QuickTime 7 Pro
has the option to convert .mov files to the .avi
format which is compatible with Movie Maker..

The following article discusses
one possible way to convert .mov
files to a usable format .
