Just found that I can't import mp4 files into Windows Movie Maker.

Can someone point me at an update for this: or do I have to use a different
prog?

Cheers,
S

Hi S. go here, d/load and install VLC.
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

It`ll play most types of files without installing any more codecs etc.

Thanks Meerkat,

I already knew about vlc, but on this particular laptop I wanted to stick
with the basic progs if possible, and, having explained to the user how to
use MM with a batch of video I'd already converted, I was surprised when it
didn't recognise the mp4 format of another batch. Thought there must be an
update out there that the owner had missed.

Cheers,
S

Any Video Converter (Soundforge I do believe has it) converts just about any
format to any other. Convert it to what you're used to and proceed as
normal.

You can download Any Video Converter (which is a freebie) from several
sites, but I'd be surprised if SoundForge has anything to do with it.
