When a TV program is recorded from Windows Media Center the recorded video
has the file format [name.dvr-ms]

I can open and play these dvr-ms files with Windows Media Player, Windows
Media Center, Nero Showtime etc. but if I try to import a dvr-ms file into
Windows Movie Maker I always get the error message "File could not be
imported. Unspecified error"

Windows Movie Maker will successfully import and edit files with extensions
..wmv, .avi, . mpg etc.

I am using fully updated Vista Home Premium SP1 and the latest Windows Movie
Maker v.6.0.6000.16386. The system is very stable and works well in all
other respects.

What is my problem? - I am baffled!

YOu are in the XP newsgroup, so a post to the vista one would probably yield
better results.

Vista movie maker should be able to edit the dvr.ms files.

Do you have any trouble with any other file type, such as wmv or dv.avi?
