Windows Movie Maker For Windows 7

Movie Maker For Windows 7:-

It is in fact being said that Windows Movie Maker is easier than all other movie makers to create and share movies. And bundled with the download of this piece of software are tools for photos, instant messaging, email, and social networking. Others may have also said how easy it is to download Windows Movie Maker for Windows 7 but in all honesty, it is a pain in the ass. No bluff here but I experienced it. I am using a licensed Windows 7 OS but I don’t even see a free Windows Movie Maker featured in my Windows.

Plus their website is full of crap! It says

But when I search for it, there is none, never did I see a Windows Movie Maker. When I tried to download it elsewhere, it requires me lots of process to do before I can download it fully such as, download Microsoft SilverLight. What’s worse is that their movie maker is OS-specific. Say if I am a Vista user, so what only works is Windows Movie Maker 2.6 and no other movie maker version will work. If I am an XP user, I can only download the lowest version of their movie maker. If I am Windows 7, it is the Windows Live Movie Maker….So again, in all honesty, I have to go through lots of complicated process for me to just be able to download their software, which for me is really freakin’ waste of time. And what’s the most frustrating part is when I am able to download the program I got to face lots of technical problems while using it. Other users have experienced this too! In fact, here’s a few of their comments:

Now, why stick with this piece of crap where in fact there are other movie makers that are better and less complicated, right? However, of those movie makers, I happen to only like one and it’sEzvid. Why? Ezvid is by far, the easiest and most convenient way to create video or slideshows and it runs in almost all Windows platform – from XP to Vista to Windows 7. It’s not OS-specific. It lets you create videos in less than 5 minutes with the added functionality of directly uploading finished videos to YouTube with no more conversion of video format needed. Other movie makers require you to convert your video but with Ezvid – no more. It lets you up videos to YouTube with just one click of a button.

So a piece of good advice, use Ezvid instead of Windows Movie Maker if you like to create videos and plan to up it to YouTube. Now there are also limitations with Ezvid like it won’t be able to import mp3 files for some reason – to prevent your videos being muted when you use copyrighted-material such as songs or videos. However, Ezvid provides 20 free music soundtracks you can choose which are all YouTube legal.

You can’t also save Ezvid videos on your hard-drive. However, what it does is it automatically save your videos on its project manager where you can always see that video for future editing or if you want to duplicate your videos and use it for some other video theme you might wanna have in mind. Very cool! You can just tell how awesome Ezvid is for YouTube videos.

Ezvid accepts almost all kinds of video format and image format. Now other movie makers don’t have this feature, making Ezvid a general free movie maker to use.

When it comes to downloading the program, again Ezvid is quite the winner of all. You just go toEzvid.com, then click on the Free Download button and you have your Ezvid on your computer.

Comparing it with the download of Windows Movie Maker where you have to go through that complicated process, so do you think you still have to go for WMM? Not, right? We all need easy download software that works well in a variety of Windows platform. Ezvid is 100% spyware and adware-free and is 100%-freeware, which means you don’t have to pay for the program in order to use it nor you are a in trial period for 30-days, but Ezvid is all yours for FREE, no registration required to download or use it. Hence, with all these features of Ezvid – from usability to installation to features – nothing can ever compare to the simplicity and usefulness of this software
