When importing a video into Windows Movie Maker, you may find that the video is automatically split into several movie clips. Why this happens? Windows Movie Maker does this just to allow beginners to add effects and transitions to the video. If we don’t need to add effects, is there any way to combine them back into one? Yes, you can prevent the video splitting by following the steps:

1. Open Windows Movie Maker

2. Click File > Import into Collections or (Cntrl + I)

3. A dialog box appears which allows you to import videos. On the bottom left side of the dialog box, there is the import options

4. You will find a check box says “Create clips for Video files”

5. Just uncheck the check box(remove the tick mark)



How to combine video clips in Windows Movie Maker?

1. Import video file into Windows Movie Maker.

2. Drag and drop video clips into Timeline frame.

3. Using CTRL to select two or more clips and then click Clip in the upper bar. In the drop down menu, select Combine.



Tip: This seems to only work for video clips that were previously one piece and you have to only combine contiguous clips. If you want combine different video files to a single one, turn to iOrgSoft Video Converter by ticking “Merge into one file” option.



4. When finish working on a project, you can save the movie with .wmv extension by click File->Save Movie File->My computer->Enter a name and choose a save path->Movie Setting, finally save the movie.



Tip: This is for Windows XP users, as a Vista user, you can publish the movie to your computer by click File->Publish Movie, the follow procedures that are similar with Windows XP.

Note: If your video files are not recognized by Windows Movie Maker, maybe your computer lacks of corresponding codec, the easiest way to fix the problem is to download iOrgSoft Video Converter and transform the original video files to avi, wmv, asf, or mpeg video that are read well by WMM.`

One of the advantages of high speed internet connection is that we can download free new movies online easily. There are many free movie download sites available that allows you to download full length movies easily.

One good free movie download site is archive.org. This site has a large database of movies, video clips, audio and text as well. You can download the movies for free. However, most of the movies are quite old but they are still good to watch.

Another way to download free movies is to make use of P2P networks. P2P stands for peer to peer technology and you need a P2P software installed on your computer as such limewire to search and download movies files from P2P networks.

There are millions of files available on P2P networks. However, the major disadvantage is security. It is well known P2P has tons of viruses and spyware lurking. Some files are intentionally misleading, often naming a file as a popular movie title.

Those who download and open the file will get your computers infected. The other problem with P2P networks is that the download speeds may vary from file to file. Since it depends on the number of seeds who are uploading the files, some files may take forever to download if no one is uploading them.

The last alternative to download free DVD movies is to join a paid movie download membership site. These free movie download sites allows anyone to download unlimited free movies for a one time fee.

The cost is usually very affordable. For less than 50 bucks, you have lifetime access and can download as many movies as you want.

I prefer the last option to download movies and I recommend it because the download speeds are faster and the files are certified free from viruses and spyware.
