How to combine clips in different formats?

External Since: Jul 10, 2007 Posts: 4

I am using Windows Movie Maker and have a video in ".wmv" format. I need to
add a video clip in ".mov" format to the end of the ".wmv" video. Windows
Movie Maker does not allow me to import a ".mov" file (they do allow .avi,
..mpg, .mlv, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, .wmv). Is there
another program I can use to combine these two clips?

================================
You should be able to use Movie Maker
if you convert the .mov file to .wmv or .avi
before importing it.

Try using the following apps to convert
QuickTime .mov files to a format that
can be used in Movie Maker.

QuickTime 7 Pro

Convert .mov using TMPGEnc
and the TMPGEnc Mov Plugin
