I. What video encoding formats does Windows Movie Maker support?

As we mentioned in the introduction just now, the video encoding formats that Windows Movie Maker can support are relatively limited, so what file formats does it support? The details are as follows: ASF, AVI, WMV, MPEG, MPG, M1V, MP2, WM, WMA, etc. In addition, the editor will give a brief introduction to some of the common video formats, let’s go and find out together.

ASF Format : It is a data format developed by Microsoft for Windows 98 that includes audio, video, images, and control command scripts. It is very suitable for transmission on the IP network, so it is often used in on-demand, live broadcast, and distance education.

WMV Format: Also known as Windows Media Video Format, the extension is (.wmv). This video format is a video compression format, so the video size of this format is relatively small, suitable for playback and transmission on the Internet. Now mainstream players on the market, such as: RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, VLC player, etc., all support playing videos in this format.

AVI Format: Its English full name is Audio Video Interleaved, which is an audio and video interleaved format. It is a multimedia file format launched by Microsoft in November 1992. It encapsulates the audio and video data in one file, and the audio and video are arranged interlaced by frame, so as to achieve the effect of synchronous playback of audio and video. There are many files in AVI format in the titles of some games, educational software, and multimedia CDs.

WMA Format: It is a new audio format introduced by Microsoft that is as famous as the MP3 format. This format exceeds MP3 in terms of compression ratio and sound quality, and is far better than RA (Real Audio), and can produce better sound quality even at a lower sampling frequency.

From the file formats supported by Windows Movie Maker software, we can easily see that, except for the several common formats described in detail above, other commonly used video formats (such as MP4 format) cannot be edited with the help of this software. Don’t worry, the editor will recommend a video editing tool with high market praise——Renee Video Editor Pro . This software can not only support the conversion of almost all video formats, but also provides a series of practical video editing tools. Function. Let’s take a closer look at this software.
