I've got a bit of a problem. There are some video clips I'd like to use for something, but I can't because it keeps popping up with an error saying that they're not indexed. I have absolutely no clue how to fix it.

A screenshot of WMM when the error occurs might help me solve your problem.

I'm not sure exactly what the error means, but you can reindex a file using Windows Media File Editor, a tool that is available with Windows Media Encoder 9 Series. Search Microsoft for the download.

To index the file using Windows Media File Editor, do the following:
1. Open Windows Media File Editor.
2. On the File menu, click Open, and then select the file you want to index.
3. On the File menu, click Save and Index.

You could also try getting Adobe Premiere or Adobe Premiere Elements.

Well there's your problem.

Sure, why not? This thing still isn't working anyhow.

Edit: I tried downloading them again, and now it works. Figures. :roll:
