When creating movie clips and saving them to computer they are saved in MP4 format.

In order to use the movie clips with Windows DVD Maker I must convert them to WMV.

Is there a Movie Maker setting that will automatically save the movie clips to computer in WMV?

I have Windows 7, Home edition. My Windows Live Movie Maker was working fine until recently. The movie clips would take about 5 seconds to load into movie maker and then it would skip (be choppy) during playback of those clips. To rectify this I searched the web where suggestions to reload Movie Make seemed logical. So I went to Microsoft Website (windows.microsoft.com/en-nz/windows-live/movie-maker#t1=overview) and downloaded Movie Maker from the Essentials package.

However, there is now no Movie Maker (nor Photo Gallery) on my PC anymore (the old one was automatically deleted). Where there used to a film role icon for Movie Maker there is now a blank page icon in its place. I have restarted the PC several times. I tried downloading again, but the download options tell me that it is already loaded - but it hasn't. 

How do I get Movie Maker back please?  

my old laptop a dell running windows xp crashed and I was able to save off my old digital movie clips from my old pc and restore them on my new pc running windows 8
When I open the movie clips in window media player or movie maker I can hear the audio put the video image is not there.
How can I fix this?

I made a movie 'project' using the 2011 version of Windows Live Movie Maker, then when I upgraded to Windows Essentials, Movie Maker - I cannot copy splits that I created in this movie... In the old version of WL Movie Maker, I could put the start point and end point, copy that clip and create a new movie of that clip - this way I could create the separate videos for each of the typed questions that I need for Survey Monkey.

How can I do the same thing in the new version of Movie Maker?
I split the movie clips and trimmed them. But I could not connect various trimmed sections and photos into one file. Please help me.
