If from a camera it might work with mp4camtoavi. Or else super, winff, mpeg streamclip, quicktime pro, winavi, etc.

i have another question. where could i download the avi codec for free. the movie isn't working in windows movie maker still

... where could i download the avi codec for free. ...

What's codec?!

... the movie isn't working in windows movie maker still

What's video container (AVI, ...)?
What's used codecs in this file (check used MediaInfo, GSpot, ...)?

[freak93]

The file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner.YOUR-09F6CB889E\My Documents\My Videos\DSCN3904.avi.AVI cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again.



this is exactly what it says when i try to import the movie. i'm not great with this stuff. so maybe i'm reading it wrong

Use MediaInfo

Media Info supplies technical and tag information about a video or audio file.

and/or GSpot

Establishes what video and audio codecs are required to play any video.

BTW
This AVI file is after transcoding from MOV?
If yes, what's used converter?

[freak93]

i used SUPER

[Placio74]

i used SUPER

And You choose codec in SUPER...?

I'm guess... install Xvid codec.
