If you want to edit a DVD movie with Windows Movie Maker to build a new DVD, but you get frustrated with the DVD format, this guide may help you solve the problem.
Before you get started, it will be helpful if you learn something about the DVD and WMM. General DVDs have CSS copy protection in MPEG-2 or VOB format. (Windows) Windows Movie Maker supports WMV, AVI and MPG video files.

How to put DVD movie into Windows Movie Maker
Step1. To put a DVD movie into Windows Movie Maker, you have to rip your DVD to WMV or AVI video first, and then you can load it into Windows Movie Maker. I'd prefer using Aimersoft DVD Ripper to do this. You can get this program at: http://www.aimersoft.com/dvd-ripper.html#114 Then install and run it, put your DVD disc into your DVD drive, click "Load DVD" to locate your DVD file and import it, or load it by clicking "Load File" to add DVD IFO file. (This DVD Ripper can rip copyright protected DVD movies, but you should remember that it's illegal rip DVD for any business purposes)
Step2. Select output format and subtitle After you load the DVD files, click the format drop-down list to select "WMV – Windows Media Video (*.wmv)" or "AVI – Audio Video Interleaved (*.avi)" as the output format. A regular DVD movie has multiple subtitles and audio tracks, and you can select the right one for you. If you just want a certain part of the DVD movie, you can click "trim" to cut the DVD movie. Just drag the timeline bar to set the start and end time, and then blue line will be the captured parts.
For advanced user, if you want to output higher quality video, click the "Settings" button to open the panel, here you can customize video bitrate, audio bitrate, resolution, framerate, etc. Higher bitrate will result in bigger file size.
Step3. Start to convert After the above steps, you just need to click "Start" and wait for the conversion to be finished. It takes about 40 minutes to convert a common two hours DVD movie.
Step4. Edit DVD with Windows Movie Maker (optional) Run Windows Movie Maker, in the "Movie Task" bar, click "Add Video" to browse your computer and located the converted files, and then you can start to make personal movies.
Tips: Many users may wonder how they can convert Windows Movie Maker file (*.MSWMM) to other video format. Actually, A *.MSWMM file is not a video file. It is a project file of Movie Maker (more like a record file). You have to open this file in Windows Movie Maker and save the movie to your computer: Go to Movie Tasks bar > Finish Movie > Save to my computer. After that you will have a WMV file which can be converted to another video format or burned to DVD.
sorry to say but windows movie maker is a crap you should use other software like las vegas its powerful tool movie maker is really a crap never edit with that
KDE4 applications on Windows, available for Windows 2000 through Windows Vista. Want a file manager
other than Windows' file manager? Install Dolphin. Want to see how your next web layout looks in
Konqueror, or want to use a file manager other than Dolphin and Windows' file manager? Install
Konqueror. There are many other packages to install, just go through the list of packages for what
you want to install. The programs, i think, take on the theme of the operating system, so those

I am now running on Windows XP. I'm confused whether to use and install Windows Updates or not.
My friends and some local IT support said that I do not need them. But many tech site suggests them
to be installed. Here is my situation : I only use this PC to browse internet, download files,
using P2P software, play games and other activity that doesn't require internet. I never use
wireless internet, my PC is not linked to another PC (workgroup). Do I really need Windows Update at
all? Untill now, I never experienced any crash or something without those updates. ....
Hi, although it has some useful features and it's (i'd hope so...) well integrated with the

had to intensively work on my file directory... still I haven't found a very good one, all
those I tried have some kind of bug or they are not really user friendly in some occasions... would
anyone suggest a good FREEWARE file explorer? thanks /wink.gif" style="vertical-al....

Hi all, I am running a Mac and I have a Windows XP home edition already installed on another
partition via boot camp. Then I ran into Parallels and began installing it. However, instead of
using the existing installation via boot camp, it is asking me to provide a cd key to activate XP. I
couldn't possibly provide a cd key as I already used it to activate. How can I get Parallels to
use the existing installation without asking me to provide another cd key? I gave up and thought of
uninstalling Parallels but I couldn't do it on the Windows side as I was require....

doing this. I am running a P4 (2.8GHz with 512 ram, 64MB vram), and when I try to activate the
visualization in WMP 11 all it is horribly slow and pixelized. I would guess about 5 fps Normally I
would just accept this and keep saving for a new computer but the second that there is something
covering even part of the visualization screen, it ups it's performance. If you put a separate

From What I heard about WMP11, Microsoft's original plans for Windows Media Player (WMP)
11--formerly code-named Aurora--were fairly low-key, with just a few minor new features. That's
all changed: Microsoft has canceled Aurora, and the company is moving the Longhorn media player to
XP. Now code-named Polaris, WMP 11 will be a major release. There's just one problem: Instead of
shipping in November, as per the original plan, WMP 11 will now ship in a public beta during that
month, coinciding with Longhorn Beta 2. The final release is roughly scheduled for ear....

Hi all, judging from the many posts to the forums re: hardware & software problems... I posted this
question: HOW MANY TIMES HAS A "UPDATE" downloaded directly from MSs website.. CRASHED YOUR COMPUTER
??? For our purposes here a "crash" is a major malfunction of any part of the Windows operation
system.. such as Internet Explorer kept "freezing up".. after an update. A crash is anything you
couldn't live with.. and you had to "Restore" OR even completely "re-install" the whole Windows
OS to fix it. Another example would be all the problems that SP1 (service pack 1....
