.mp4 format needs converting for Movie Maker
I tried to convert an .mp4 format using Bink and Smacker but it didn't work.

How can I take this format and use it in Movie Maker in order to edit so
that I can upload to a website? Movie Maker doesn't recognize .mp4.

Thank you

============================================
Maybe the freeware Super would be worth a try.

SUPER © Simplified
Universal Player Encoder & Renderer
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/SUPER_1
(the mirror download site is faster)

John:

Thanks for the recommendation. I have downloaded the program but it isn't
very easy to figure out. I'll work with it and see if I have success.

thanks again for the reply.

========================
Try the following steps:

Drag/Drop your .mp4 into the field that says:
"Drop A Valid Multimedia File Here"

At #1....choose your output format... avi

At the bottom of the screen...click "Encode".

If you did not change the Output folder...your
converted video will be in the following folder::

C:\Program Files\eRightSoft\SUPER\OutPut

If this fails...there is a forum at the following link
where you can get some info:

eRightSoft Super Forum
http://www.erightsoft.com/Supforum.html

Good luck.....

Re: .mp4 format needs converting for Movie Maker
I use Total video converter to make these conversions. It is very very
easy to use and powerful
