While the renaming didn't work, I was a bit reluctant to download anything more into the computer, so I took a crack at just using Windows Movie Maker and converting there.....and it worked.
However, Movie Maker now wants to take the one clip and recognize as a three part clip.....I'll survive it, but weird, heh? --- In [email protected], "Jean Chang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Johnny, > > Didn't you read the post? You don't need a converter. All you do is change the extension from avi to mpg. You can then import it. The files produced by the Canon are MJPEG files. They show an avi extension, but you just have to rename it to mpg and they import fine. > > Jean > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Johnny K.
