How do you change a Windows Movie Maker video into a Windows Media Video?

Answer 1

you just save the movies that you made on movie maker as save movies

** A WMM project is still in "unfinished" form(.MSWMM)and can only be viewed/edited in Windows Movie Maker.

** A PUBLISHED/FINISHED WMM video is the "finalized" format.

Before you can view your WMM (Windows Movie Maker) project on a media player, send it by email, or upload it anywhere, you first need to PUBLISH/FINISH the WMM project. This finalizes the project by means of "mixing down" audio/video properties.

Note: The videos file name extension (or Properties) will automatically be changed to the .wmv (for computer playback) or other extension depending on the saving option.

To Publish/Finish your WMM project:

> With your project in the time-line view of Windows Movie Maker

> Click on View and Tasks, to open the task pane

> Under Publish to ---- (Windows Vista v2.6)
> Under Finish Movie (Windows Xp v2.1 )

> Choose - This computer

> Name the movie and select a destination to save it in ---
(Choose/make a folder to save it in that you can access easily)

> Click Next

> Select option: Best quality for playback on my computer (recommended)

> Click Publish or Finish (depending on your WMM version)

When the video is published/finished, you should be able to find it in the folder you saved it in. Click on it and it should open up in the media player you use.
