How do I convert recorded movies to wmv so they could be played in movie maker?

When I try to import it into movie maker this appears.


The file I:\VIDEO_TS\VTS_03_0.BUP cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again.


Just tell me what i have to do to convert the BUP to wmv. Thanks.How do I convert recorded movies to wmv so they could be played in movie maker?
I know a good useesoft total video converter and it can convert almost any video format with excellent conversion speed and quality, such as converting WMV to MP4, WMV to MPEG, MKV to AVI, WMV to AVI, AVI to MPEG, etc..


Furthermore, it can easily convert video files to popular audio files like converting AVI to MP3, WMV to MP3, AVI to WMA, MKV to AAC, MP4 to MP3, etc.


I think you can search it and have a try to use it.

A WMV file is an audio/video container commonly used in Windows. A BUP file is simply a backup of an original file with an extra extension in the file name. This is done to not interfere with the original file, while retaining a copy that can be recovered if the original file is damaged or lost. A BUP backup of a WMV can be easily restored to the original state by renaming


Rename a BUP file to recover a WMV backup


1.Navigate to the BUP file you'd like to convert into a WMV format. For example if the file is located in ';C:/Backup';, double-click on ';My Computer'; and then the ';C:/'; drive and then the ';Backup'; folder


2.Right-click on the BUP file. A new context menu will appear. Select ';Rename.';


3.Delete the ';.BUP'; portion of the file name so that the last four characters are ';.WMV.'; For example, a file named ';example.wmv.bup'; should be renamed ';example.wmv.'; Hit ';Enter'; to finish
