“Someone from work sent me a video to edit. The file is sent as a wmv and I want to edit it in iMovie. How do I make it so I can open it on a Mac and drag it into iMovie? Right now I can't open to edit. Thanks!”
There is no denying that iMovie is a wonderful application that enables Mac users to import and edit home videos with an easiest way and then turn them into a new movie. However, there is still one disadvantage. iMovie only supports limited video formats to be imported and edited. One of the video file formats is MWV. Consequently, how to convert and import WMV to edit in iMovie is the main idea in this post.
WMV is short for Windows Media Video. It is the name of a series of video codes and their corresponding video coding formats developed by Microsoft. It is part of the Windows Media framework.
iMovie is a video editing software for Mac platform and iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) device sold by Apple Inc. It supports high-definition video formats such as MEPG-4, .mp4, QuickTime Movie files (.mov, .movie).
Since WMV video can’t be watched on iMovie, we need to convert .wmv format to other format that is compatible with iMovie. Ready? Now let’s follow the way as below!
Actually in order to convert video files to iMovie video format, there are large numbers of converter tools you can apply and one of them is Adoreshare Video to iMovie Converter for Mac.
