Convert WLMP to MP4

Understanding WLMP and MP4 file formats

WLMP stands for Windows Live Movie Project, a file format used by Windows Live Movie Maker. It is a project file that contains information about the movie project, such as the timeline, transitions, and effects, but it does not contain actual video data. This means that WLMP files cannot be played directly in media players.

MP4, on the other hand, is a widely-used multimedia format that contains video, audio, and subtitles. It is compatible with most media players and devices, making it a popular choice for sharing and viewing videos.

How to convert WLMP to MP4

To convert a WLMP file to MP4, you need to first open the WLMP file in Windows Live Movie Maker and then export it as an MP4 file. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Open Windows Live Movie Maker.
2. Click on File → Open Project and select your WLMP file.
3. Once the project is loaded, click on File → Save Movie.
4. Select the For computer option to save the project as an MP4 file.
5. Choose the destination folder and click Save.
