Winavi- to Windows Movie maker trouble

Post by SilverFreedoms » Tue Apr 14, 2009 5:47 pm

I've been at work converting various FLV files to AVI files so I can use them in my Windows Moviemaker. Whenever I try to import one of these files to the Media library in my Moviemaker, the program immediately freezes up and quits itself. This has never happened before so I am a bit confused on what exactly I am doing wrong.

Can anyone point me in the right direction on what I should do to fix this problem?

I'm quite aware of that already , but I don't have much to work with at the moment so I'm using the FLV's until I can find something better....
