Importing video from Olympus camera

I have a digital camera that also shoots movies. When I try to have movie
maker capture the video ...it says it does not recognize the file type. How
can I make it recognize it to a type it understands.

===========================
Olympus movie clips are in the
Apple QuickTime .mov format...

No version of WMM is compatible
with .mov files. You'll have to download
the movie clips to a folder on your hard
drive and convert them to a compatible
format.

The retail version of QuickTime Pro can
convert the files to a compatible format
like.avi for example.

Also...the following articles discuss other
possible ways to convert .mov files to a
usable format .
