Windows Movie Maker

pbmaster · Dec 10, 2008, 04:15 AM

OK, so I've been using Movie Maker to convert .avi files to .wmv so I can watch them over my 360 on my TV. Everything had been going fine until tonight: every time I try to import or drag and drop a file into Movie Maker is gives me some error message saying it needs to close. I even tried reinstalling it and Windows Media Encoder does the same thing. Any ideas? Or, are there any alternative programs I can use?

Just tried to import a .mpeg and it worked fine..hmmmm

Hmm, I though the 360 could support divx AVI files now.
Anyway, if you want to stream media off of your PC other than WMVs just get a program called TVersity, it will let you stream nearly anything.

The main thing I want to do is still be able to watch all my stuff on my TV. It's just odd that Movie Maker stopped working all of a sudden.

Thanks for that program man, works way better than the Zune software for me.
