How do I Change A Format Of Video ?

i Made This Video on Windows Maker and when I tryed to upload to youtube it kept saying invalid format i just want a fast easy way to change format so i can put it on youtube.How do I Change A Format Of Video ?If you鈥檙e using Windows Movie Maker, there is

the possibility that you mistakenly saved your

video as an MSWMM file with %26quot;Save Project%26quot;,

instead of a WMV or AVI file with %26quot;Save Movie

File%26quot; (Windows XP) or %26quot;Publish Movie%26quot; (Vista).



There is a monster of a difference between the

1st example and the rest: the 1st is simply just

a %26quot;work-in-progress%26quot; saved within Movie Maker

and is not even a %26quot;true%26quot; video. The others save

your file into what you need to properly upload

it to YouTube.



The most efficient way to save your video such

that you can upload it is:



1 -- click the blue %26quot;Tasks%26quot; icon.....(you'll get the %26quot;Movie Tasks%26quot; menu)



2 -- click %26quot;Finish Movie%26quot;, the 3rd option.....(it will expand to 5 choices)



3 -- click %26quot;Save to my Computer%26quot;.....(the %26quot;Save Movie%26quot; wizard appears)



4 -- enter the name of your movie.....(it is best to stay in %26quot;My Videos%26quot;)



5 -- click %26quot;Next%26quot; at the bottom.....(you'll get the %26quot;Movie Setting%26quot; page)



6 -- click %26quot;Best quality for playback%26quot;.....(it's usually the default setting)



7 -- click %26quot;Next%26quot; at the bottom.....(you will get the %26quot;Completing%26quot; page)



8 -- click %26quot;Finish%26quot; at the bottom.....(the saving may take quite a while)



9 -- repeat steps 1,2 and click %26quot;Send to Web%26quot;.....(you know this part)



YouTube's ideal video format/compression

is actually %26quot;MPEG4 at 640x480 resolution

with sound in MP3 audio%26quot; -- all recorded at

a rate of more than 24 frames per second.

However, also accepted are video files that

are AVI, MOV and WMV, the last of which

is Windows Movie Maker.
