Please HELP!! I’m making a movie w/ WMM2 and everything is fine but the video. It’s choppy. The audio that goes with it was a mess too but after reading all the forum discussion on here I finally got the codec right. But the video is still a choppy mess. Please, I’m about to freak out from frustration. Thanks in advance!

RE: QuickTime mov to Windows MovieMaker

There have been numerous queries about converting .mov to a Windows MovieMaker friendly format. Here is my input into this - I hope someone finds this useful. Do post back if this was good (or even if you find it is not good so others may benefit - this is the purpose of having these website forums. We are all either seeking help or trying to help someone)

My personal suggestion: Get <MPEG Streamclip>

This is an Open Source (free) application. (Got the blurb below from their homepage)

- It is a powerful video converter, player, editor
- It can play many movie files, not just MPEGs;
- it can convert MPEG files between muxed/demuxed formats for authoring;
- it can encode movies to many formats, including iPod;
- can also download videos from YouTube and Google
- it is a converter for QuickTime files, MPEG-1/2/4 files and transport streams (.ts and .m2t).

It fully support these formats to convert into another format:
MPEG, VOB, PS, M2P, MOD, VRO, DAT, MOV, DV, AVI, MP4, TS, M2T, MMV, REC, VID, AVR, M2V, M1V, MPV, AIFF, M1A, MP2, MPA, AC3...

Honestly guys, try this out. Its free. You’d have to be CRAZY not to. I notice most of the posts in this forum seem to be asking the same question. ie “how can I convert .mov to WMovieMaker format” etc

Suggestion: use this if something else you’ve tried hasnt worked for you.

i also have a kodak camera and have the came problem. I have used rad but the movie turns out crap slow and the sound is off when its converted. I have also tried movavi video converter and that worked much butter but still lagging a bit.

It seems weird to me that kodak doesnt have a movie maker??

I tried the radtools thing and I thought it was going to work great, but for some reason when it converted the .mov to .avi it made the movie go in slow motion...did I do something wrong? Please help!

My Kodak camera saves all videos in .mov. I tried the rad tools thing and it went through the conversion process but then when i played the video it was in slow motion and half the audio was cut out...what do I do? Please feel free to email me if anyone knows Cloienc27@netscape.net

Sony Vegas seems to work well with the MOV file as well as the converted MPG file. I like it better than Pinnacle and it’s not such a resource hog. It also has nice features although they are a bit harder to find at first, but it’s a really nice program. It also has multiple video tracks where you can work with masking and stuff.

Rad helped me a lot to convert .mov to .avi. My videos are made from a Kodak c340 camera. I converted and uploaded 6 videos to my blog site without problems. However, now when I upload — either the .mov or the rad converted .avi files — there is a tremendous amout of noise on the audio that destroys the audio. I have tried several uploads, but to no avail. Why this sudden problem? I have no clue. Can anyone help me. All of the videos play well on my local pc, I only get the noise problem after uploading to my blog site.

If it’s too big, you can open up Windows Movie Maker and then just save it. That’s what I do with my WinCam files after I convert them to .avi . If you cannot find Windows Movie Maker on your Computer, just click on Start and then click in search. Just search for Windows Movie Maker and you computer will find it. If not, just download it.

Hi graywolf2004,
This is a great job. I have kodak which has got me Mov format difficult to run in all windows pc with media player. Also most of CD\DVD burners write .avi but no support for mov.

I’ve been looking for this for almost a year. Great job pal.
