Question asked on Jun 7, 2014

I have Win8.1 and Movie Maker 2012. I am trying to open mod files in MM and at first it would come in but when played it would only be static. under options i turned off the advanced stabilization/processing and then i could get audio but video is only a black screen. i turned the stabiliazation/processing back on and restarted and now the audio plays fine with these on but the video is still black.

when i open the video in media player it plays fine. however, in photo gallery the preview for the video is the same as for movie maker - audio but only a black screen for video.

any help would be greatly appreciated. i have spent all morning on this short video of my daughter. i don't want my mac friends starting to say i told you so!
