help?

Every time I import an .avi video (or something like that) to WMM it only comes up as audio! There's no picture or anything, even though i downloaded a video.

how do i get the picture?

 

I dunno for sure...but i think that has something to do with your video plug-ins...I have the same problem with SV....that if I import a avi file that i only get the audio part of the video......I think the best way to solve this problem, is by converting the video to a .WMV file.........

 

thanks but how do i do that?

 

I shall help you find a free video converter...and with that you can convert every video file into another video file....like WMV to AVI....or AVI to MP4......

 

You probably don't have the right codecs for the video file? You can just go online and search for the DivX codec pack; that always has the latest video codes including those for .avi files.

Just out of curiosity, do the files work in Windows Media Player? If so then you may want to go into your Windows Movie Maker and change the codec settings. To do this, you need to go into Tools, then to Options. A box should appear and there should be a tab that says "Compatibility." Go into that tab and look to see what file types are checked. If there is an "AVI Decompressor", check it.

If not, then I suggest you dowload the DivX codec pack and check all of the file types. It should work after that. ^^

Hope this helps~
