How do I use the flip video camera with windows movie maker?

Can you use a flip video camera on Microsoft Windows Movie Maker?

• Answer:

  I got a Mino Hd last week and since i have discovered that Yes video clips from flip cameras can be edited on Microsoft Movie maker - although the key to doing this is: Each clip you take on your Flip is saved as MP4 until you change it by 'making a movie' of it using the Flip software. So start by taking each clip you want to edit later in Microsoft Movie Maker and make a movie of them in the Flip software (with no added titles / no added music etc) Flip then saves these 'movie' clips in your movie folder - these will now be in wmv format and ready to be edited in Microsoft Movie maker. Windows Movie Maker is a very useful application to edit videos, and it has many features such as effects, transitions, titles/credits, audio track, timeline, narration and so on. However, if you want to edit flip videos using Windows Movie Maker, you will have to convert flip video to Windows Movie Maker supported video formats such as ASF, AVI and WMV. Then you will need a flip video to Windows Movie Maker Converter. Doremisoft Flip Converter can do the job perfectly. Click on Flip Converter in the Related links section below.
