Solved

Hello, I have a problem with Windows Movie Player. Every time I want to add music to my montage, it says this:

Unable to import C:\Documents and Settings\kawoline\Bureau\music\Sisquo - Thong Song.mp3. The selected file is not valid or is corrupted.

What can I do to successfully add mp3 music?
THANK YOU/
Configuration: Windows XP Firefox 2.0.0.1

    Hello everyone,

    So my problem is that when I put a video on Windows Movie Maker, the video plays but the audio from the video doesn't work!

    What should I do?

    Thanks in advance =)

    I almost didn't respond, but I thought that I had been in the same mess lol I actually found the solution!!!!!!!! We don't know why WMM suddenly doesn't accept MP3 music anymore like that, but actually, you have to convert them to WMA files and everything goes smoothly, plus it's really quick to do with the Free Mp3 Wma Converter software. There you go, I hope it works! ;)

      They really ... annoy us at Windows with their wild updates.
      We use a software and 3 or 4 months later, it no longer works without any explanation from them!
      Thanks for the info!
      Free Mp3 Wma Converter works great!

    Good evening,

    For it to work, I just had to save my Movie Maker project, then close the Movie Maker software.

    Then we reopen the Movie Maker project and everything is fine!

    Regards

      So basically, you need to do as mentioned above.

      Convert the file from MP3 format to WMA format.

      Hoping to have helped you ;)

      My files are already in WMA and it's not working! Why did WMM manage to read them the first time, and the next day when I reopen my project it only plays the video and not the music???

      Me, the music I put in is in WMA format, the video works but there's no sound... To convert the music, I used Free MP3 WMA Converter V 1.91. Is it the right software? Please help me...

    Hello everyone
    Sorry for the delay, but I just had the same problem and I have the solution!!!
    You need to install or reinstall the K Lite Codec Pack Full

    https://www.commentcamarche.net/telecharger/tv-video/13169-k-lite-codec-pack-full/

    Be careful during installation to uncheck the toolbars and other stuff!!
    And then everything will be back to normal, I was able to use Windows Movie Maker without any problems and add my mp3s without any issues!!
    I hope I was able to help you

    Hello, I had exactly the same problem. You need to right-click on the music in your documents
    and go to properties and check read-only. Since I did that, it works for me and it's pure happiness!!

    I just found the solution to the problem!!!!!!!! I also couldn't hear the music I had imported, even though it was working perfectly before. I uninstalled K-Lite Codec and the music is working again ^^ a codec must have caused the Windows Movie Maker player to malfunction ^^

      Buy an Archos, go to the recorder, and you talk about what you said.

    Hello everyone! Well, for me it's not quite the same, my problem is with videos. When I try to upload one (which was originally taken from my phone), it doesn't align with the images: the video replaces the audio track, I don't know why, and when I hit play, I have neither sound nor image from the video... I don't know what to do, thanks for helping me :)

    Hello, I have the same problem and I'm really starting to get fed up... I spend my time trying to figure out why, after I try to import a sound, a message appears saying that the file is invalid or damaged.
    I don't understand anything anymore... please help me quickly...

    Thanks in advance

    Thank you very much! I just downloaded it and I'm finally able to import the sounds... of course, you have to use the program to convert the mp3 files to wma... but it's actually easy... Thank you!

    I have a problem importing sound into Windows Movie Maker, but it's only related to music downloaded legally from Virgin Mega after paying for it. I get this message: The file C:\Documents and Settings\utilisateur\Mes documents\Ma musique\Partons vite.wma is protected with digital rights management and cannot be imported.
    Is there a way to bypass this issue since I have the digital rights and licenses since I purchased the file?
    Thank you for your help.

      Simply resolved by burning the files onto a CD and then extracting them from the CD, it's simple but it works and avoids downloading all possible converters.

    Hi everyone, I would like to know how to add music over the video in Windows Movie Maker without hearing the sound of the video, and only hearing the music. Please help me.

    Thank you in advance ^^
