Hi Rob, I just had a look and it says that program converts AVI to MPEG but it doesnt say anything about vice versa which is what I am needing?

 

I managed to convert the files from MPEG to WMV using a program someone suggested called WINFF but when I tried to use them with the Movie Maker, they wouldnt play properly and allthough the audio worked the film wouldnt :wallbash: I did another topic about it in the hope someone might be able to help.

 

Im about ready for giving up tbh, but I will give your download a shot before I do :signthankspin:

Ive downloaded your one Rob, its very simple and straightforward to work, managed to convert the files from MPEG to AVI but when I try to import them to WMM it keeps saying a codec required to play the file is not present on my computer, but it doesnt say which codec, what its called or anything. Anyone know which codec I need to install on my computer? I installed one of those packs ages ago from a link on either here or smoochers (cant remember which) but obviously it isnt a good enough one. Please help, this is doing my head in being so close to sussing it out, but keep getting these error messages :wallbash::wallbash:

Ive finally cracked it :toast::signthankspin: to everyone who helped, Rob I used that program you suggested and it worked a treat :thumbs: I converted the files to WMV and it all went smoothly. I need to buy the full version to get rid of the trial watermark on the screen, so if anyone knows of a way of getting the full version for free? that would be lovely jubbly :D8)

 

Cheers all :drink:
