Answer 2

All that blah blah blah blah means that Windows Movie Maker does not recognize the format of your movie; therefore, it can not import it into the editing program.  The format is indicated by the 3 letter extension on the end of the video file; such as: .wmv, .mov, .avi, or .mp4 .  If you can identify the extension, then a more accurate answer can be provided.

Use Windows Media Encoder http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows... to convert your Personal video to WMV or AVI, so WMM can use it.  You can also try t@b Video and Audio Converter http://www.thugsatbay.com/tab/?q=tab-vid... , AVS Video Converter http://avs4you.com/AVS-Video-Converter.a...

and Any Video Converter http://www.any-video-converter.com/produ...  All of these programs can be downloaded for free.

If you need to use a lot of these Personal videos or you will be recording a lot more like this, you may need to upgrade from WMM to a more powerful video editing program.  This will save you from converting every single video file for WMM.  Sony Vegas Pro and Pinnacle Studio are available for less than $100.  There are also other free video editing programs available that might also do the job.  http://motionpicturecentral.com/book/fre...
