Import DVD to Windows Movie Maker

If you are fond of a clip from a DVD movie and want to add it to the slideshow you are making with your Windows Movie Maker, you may get into the trouble that the DVD format is incompatible with Windows Movie Maker. The following tutorial may help you out of the headache.

To put DVD to Windows Movie Maker, you need to convert DVD to Windows Movie Maker WMV or AVI video first, and then load it into your Windows Movie Maker project. I'd prefer using DVD to iTunes Converter to do this.
