Thanks|||Ensure the file format is correct before uploading to youtube...





Using windows movie maker -- you have to save it into the proper file format, that is %26quot;wmv%26quot; file (use the %26quot;save movie file%26quot; on the menu at the top left) before upload..





The WMV file will be smaller in size but still quite good quality.. so uploading it will be faster.





also some movie maker version requires to be published instead of save... for that, press %26quot;ctrl-p%26quot; to publish or search%26amp;select a publish option from the menu at the top of the program window.





--for best editing....





use windows movie maker (included in your windows machine)... it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/etc).... then save it as video file such as wmv file format... finally upload.





or .. Just get those clips you want , save %26amp; convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces....





this will help you.... Use %26#039;zillatube%26#039;. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.





Zillatube produces good quality wmv/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.





It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/wmv videos with windows movie maker... save your file as wmv and then upload.





It works very well....just google search for %26quot;zillatube%26quot;, and select the first search result for download...|||To convert video file formats to Windows Media Video (WMV) format, perform the following basic steps:





1.In Windows Media Encoder, click the New Session taskbar button.





2.Click Convert a File, and then enter the following information in the New Session Wizard:





鈥ile Selection. Enter the name and path for the source (for example, AVI) and output (WMV) files.





鈥ontent Distribution. Choose how you plan to distribute your file. (Your choice here affects your choices on the next page.)





鈥ncoding Options. Choose the level of quality you want for the audio and video by selecting how you will use the file. Keep in mind that the higher the quality, the higher the bit rate. If you select multiple-bit-rate audio or video, you can select more than one bit-rate check box.





鈥isplay Information. Type information you want to include with your file, such as title and author.





3.Review your settings, and then click Finish.





4.On the taskbar, click the Start Encoding button and wait for the encoder to create the file or stream.





For more information, see %26quot;Configuring sources%26quot; in Windows Media Encoder Help.





You can use files with .asf, .avi, .bmp, .jpg, .mpg, .mp3, .wav, .wma, and .wmv file name extensions as source files for your WMV files. Sourcing from a file with a .mpg file name extension requires a compatible DVD decoder (sometimes known as an MPEG-2 decoder) on the encoding computer.





If you%26#039;re trying to convert a different file format to WMV, you must use a third-party program or utility. These programs range from simple freeware applications to professional-level content-creation programs. Keep in mind that not all programs produce quality results, and that any time you convert between formats, a certain amount of quality is lost. See the Windows Media Software Product Vendors Web page for a list of companies that make encoding products that support Windows Media.|||Open the movie you made in windows movie maker
