(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); running Windows XP, and the Movie Maker that is installed on Windows XP doesn’t handle HD format. Windows Vista Ultimate does, but not Windows XP Professional.

Well I happened upon a couple of plugin’s that will allow you to output your Movie Maker files in HD WMV format!

I have packaged them all up in a convenient ZIP Package here:

(WMM HD DOWNLOAD)You must login or register to view this content.

The resolutions available in the package are:

1280x720
1440x1080
1920x1080
960x720
To use them, make sure Movie Maker is not running, then copy the *.prx files from my zip file to:

C:\program files\Movie Maker\shared\profiles

Now don’t get too excited. There are some requirements to use these resolutions.

Windows Movie Maker 2 for Windows XP
High End GPU
Windows Media 9 or Later
1GB of RAM or more
If your PC meets these requirements you are good to go!

Please note that if your camera doesn’t shoot in HD, you can still output in the higher resolutions, however it will not magically make your video “High Definition.” Crappy quality video in will produce crappy video out.

Now that you found out about this, I am sure all of you will start editing your HD movies in Movie Maker now right? Of course you will!

I’m curious to know what software you normally use to edit your HD videos if it isn’t Movie Maker. Let me hear your favorites in the comments! so chill out ppl and have fun!:420:
