HOME MOVIE IMPORT PROBLEM

G

Guest

I've saved a home movie recorded on a dvd camcorder to my PC. When trying to
import (for editing) the movie to Moviemaker, I get the follwing message :
" The file C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My
Videos\disc 1 1.VOB is not a supported file type, and it cannot be imported
into Windows Movie Maker". How can I fix this problem?

No version of WMM is compatible
with QuickTime .mov files.

The full retail version of Apple
QuickTime Pro can convert the files
to a compatible .avi format.
