Default Problems Importing Video into Windows Movie Maker

Help!

I'm having problems importing video content into Windows Movie Maker.
The content I'm trying to import is video taken with a Nikon Digital Camera.
The type of file I'm trying to import is a QuickTime Movie.

Whenever I try to import a video it comes up with a message box saying
"The file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Pictures\David's
Pix\David's Pix 002.MOV is not a supported file type, and it cannot be
imported into Windows Movie Maker."

Thanks for your imput!

You need to convert the MOV (Quicktime) file first before you can import it
into WMM.

Take a look through the converting pages at PapaJohn's website at:

Cheers to Cari !!

Thank you very much. I did what you said to do. I downloaded the RAD
Video Tools from Papajohn's Website, installed them, converted my files to
AVI files and inported them into WMM and it works!

Thank you.
