[NERF2468]

to make it easier to trim the music, just split the music and then delete the 2nd part

yes i know all these things but i want to know how can you open it then. i mean that after you make it and save it, every time i try to opne it it opens with windows movie maker. i can't put it on youtube . i make a video i put it to windows media players , i make the video but the type is the problem. understand what im saying. it is not avi or something else and i can't change it with any program i have tried so far. so please help

[Kimlea17]

@johnn19084ever13 You need to publish it first. It should be on the left side of WMM close to the bottom you should see a button under the title that says "Publish" that says: "This Computer" click that save it, then let it publish, remember where you saved it THEN you should be able to upload THAT to youtube.

[DWOProductions]

you sound like Velma from Scooby Doo

[Kimlea17]

[DWOProductions]

[ZOMBIFICATION11]

Where do I get the music?

[Kimlea17]

@ZOMBIFICATION11 You can get the music "sample music" from your computer almost every computer has sample music. OR if you have uploaded music onto your computer, via cd or something you can find it under "Music".

[3du4rdo74]

What version of WMM do you have?

[Kimlea17]

@3du4rdo74 I looked on the properties of my WMM andit doesn't show. BUT I have had it for over 3 years, so the version that was around then ;)

[soccerchamp010]

[JJsmom0125]

Very helpful tutorial. Thanks so much.

[superredneckbabygirl]

@JJsmom0125 well i had a hard time findin like my mother does to put on this video i was goin to make for my mother where can i find good music like that and get it to upload??

[Kimlea17]

@superredneckbabygirl There's free audios you can on your computer music file. Most computers have some music already on them.

[MadamNicholetteHabbo]

What about songs with lyrics can you put those on there?

[Kimlea17]

@MadamNicholetteHabbo Youtube is CONSTANTLY changing their permissions. So, you can right now, but they will put a banner add across the bottom with a link to buy THAT music.

[MadamNicholetteHabbo]

What about songs with lyrics can you put those on there?

[bananasqueek]

@JAACastle WAhoooooooooooooooooo......Let­ me know if you need anything!!!

[TVthePunisherX]

Why is that whenever I import a song, the audio itself does not play at the timeframe it's meant to. Like for example, if a certain part in the song plays at one minute and twelve seconds, instead an earlier part plays while the file itself is twice as long (the blue line representing audio ends, with a white box extending to the right to show it's twice as long). Why is this occurring?

[Kimlea17]

@TVthePunisherX Honestly NO Clue! ;)

[bananasqueek]

@TVthePunisherX on mine the music doesnt work at all

[marinewifey25]

Thanks alot it was a great tutorial.Worked the first time.

[Kimlea17]

[VideoWatcher434]

[beaterize]

[MFKinfinite]

Really great tutorial! And shortening music was a pain in the butt until I noticed the answer right above the music. Easiest way to shorten it is to zoom out by clicking on the - zoom magnifying glass. Then shorten the music. Hope I helped. :)

[gundamassassin241]

[Kimlea17]

@gundamassassin241 I have never done a stop motion video..

I am not sure how you would do it, other than by adding each one to each

"scene"???

[gundamassassin241]

@Kimlea17 no im asking how do you have to sounds playing at the same time?

[metroman2160]

@Kimlea17 i just recently downloaded some music how do i get this music on windows movie maker? i want to use that music i downloaded in a video?

[MrLegendaryGoat]

I've got problems with adding music... Everytime I do, the WMM wont respond .. I'm sure you have not had the same problem.. But have you maybe got a solution to it ? (a) :))
