Hi All,
I have a JVC video recorder which saves movie files as .MOI and I cannot open them on windows movie maker.
I want to show my class how to make a movie about our training centre.   
All ideas welcome! Hetty

Hi Hetty

I'm pretty sure you can rename the MOI file to MOV and you should be ok. I vaguely remember having the same problem and I think this sorted it. Otherwise, I think I found a some freeware converter but can't remember what that was called. Sorry I can't be more help

Simon

Simon is probably spot on with .mov – but on the off-chance it does not work – rename file extension to .mpg and then try again

 

 

Kindest Regards,

Seaghan.

Found this info on the web. Hope it works,

  • MOI is a file format that is specifically designed for JVC video cameras. If you use a JVC camera that saves the videos onto a hard drive, then you export the content onto your computer, you may find the videos are in MOI format. Although most video editing programs accept this file extension, media players may not. If you find that the MOI video files are not opening you may need to convert the files into MPEG files because MPEG is more widely accepted.

  • 1. Download and install one of the MOI video converter file programs listed in "Resources." All of these programs are capable of converting the MOI into an MPEG video file.

  • 2. Launch the software by selecting the new desktop icon left on your screen following the installation.

  • 3. Click "Add Files" and select the particular video file you want to convert from the small search window that appears.

  • 4. Select the pull-down menu next to "Format" and choose "MPEG."

  • 5. Click "Browse" next to "Output" and select the output location where you want the new MPEG file to be saved.

  • 6. Click "Convert" and the JVC MOI file will convert to MPEG.


    7. Fingers Crossed !!!

Hi Everybody
Thanks so much for your responses - here is what I did in the end.
Downloaded dvd soft from : http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/   
which enabled me to convert the files to avi format
and open them in windows movie maker. 
We are now adding more video clips etc and getting the class to work on creating narrations 
with the aid of audacity.   
Windows movie maker not my favourite option but we are getting there.
Thanks also to Ide o Neill who recommended dvd video soft to me.
Regards, Hetty
