problem codec-import file to Mic Movie Maker

Lagi iseng mau bikin movie tentang perjalanan adventure temen2 indogulf kemarin di padang pasir menjajal ATV dan berenang dipantai sealine.

Waktu import file dari digital video format avi ke Windows Movie Maker (WMM) ternyata selalu 'error' codec required.

"The file cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is
not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and
install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to
import the file again."


sudah coba crosscek di tools option automatic updated codec dan restart ternyata masih mendapat error yg sama. setelah searching sana-sini akhirnya dapet juga masalahnya dan inilah dia yg terjadi sebenarnya

Thank you so much! I analyzed it and it turned out to be an XviD codec. I've
downloaded it now and my avi file works in WMP and WMM perfectly fine. :)
Thanks bunches again.

Much love,

Daria

Dan aku dah coba akhirnya berhasil juga thanks, jadi intinya gini
1. Open http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ kemudian download program simple bernama G-Spot and running program no need install (exe format).

2. Analyse file AVI yg bermasalah dan disebelah kanan nanti ditunjukkan apa masalahnya. utk kasus aku dgn AVI dibilang codec not installed yaitu codec "xvid".

3. Download and install codec "xvid", bisa searching di google dgn keyword "xvid' banyak yg menyediakan. cuma yg dah aku coba dan berhasil yaitu di http://www.xvid.org/ pilih sesuai OS yg dipakai.

selanjutnya silahkan dicoba import lagi file Avi nya ke WMM...harusnya berhasil. selamat mencoba.
