New to Movie Maker

[Old Dog Trying to Learn New Tricks]

Using Movie Maker on Windows Vista Home Premium.

Here are my problems/questions:
1. Can I strip the sound from a video clip and replace it with an aduio clip?

2. I can not hear my WMA audio clips in MM. I recorded them in Windows Sound
Recorder and I can play them elsewhere. I know they are good, but they will
not play in MM. I can play a mp3.

3. Does the imported audio overwrite the sound in the video?

Thanks

Bob

So I scoured the site for similar issues. Some one said that if you rightr
click on the audio portion of the time line you can set the audio to mute.
I have MM in Vista. When I drag a video to the video time line nothing will
appear in the Audio portion of the time line. If I right click on the
timeline my only options are to play it or clear it..
Do not tell me Microsoft engineered this option out.
There has to be a way to mute the audio from the video so you can add your
own sound track in Vista Movie Maker.

Scroll down to the screen shot that says
"Trim (hide) parts of a video clip"
in the following article:

Do you see the + to the left of Video?
Click it to open the Audio track. Now...
right click the Audio track and choose
mute.
