I'm trying to import .mpeg files in Movie maker 5.1 to edit a movie. Although the importing is succesful I am not allowed to drag the video files in the video timeline. Instead the files go automatically in the audio section. Im running on an XP Home edition. Any clue why this is happening? Thanks for the help.
WMM in any version AFAIK does not like MPG files in any form. You will probably need to convert them using another program to a form WMM can handle. See www.papajohn.org, left column, Import Movie Source files, Video, MPEG for more information.

Info only............not an answer to your question. There is no MM 5.1 What you are seeing under Help>About is the Windows 5.1 build version. Look lower down to see the MM version of 2.1.4026 Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Tue, 22 Jul 2008 13:09:31 -0700, Elipses wrote: >I'm trying to import .mpeg files in Movie maker 5.1 to edit a movie.
