Windows Movie Maker is the program that started it all. Windows Movie Maker is a Windows video-editing program created by Microsoft. It is often the first editor people may use to create YouTube Poop videos, but other users have stuck to it as a preference. It got discontinued on January 10, 2017, and later, Microsoft announced Story Remix and released it in fall 2017. This was featured alongside Vegas Pro, Adobe Premiere and Final Cut on the thumbnail of Youchew Trading Card #76, recognizing its foundational importance in Youtube Poop.
Advantages[edit]
- Free with Windows ME, XP or Vista.
- Fairly simple to use.
- Extra video plugins and effects) can be downloaded
Disadvantages[edit]
- Needs the patience of a saint since it is VERY crash prone.
- Video reversing requires more effort and time to do; it is done by cutting up clips to the smallest and putting them backward, compared to a single button of the other programs. This did, however, start the stutter reverse.
- No unlimited video or audio tracks. Only one is available at a time, so if a pooper wants to add another audio track, they must render the video and then add it to the finished file. Video overlaying is impossible, although there are custom chromakey transitions you can download from the FX Archive.
- No audio effects in storyboard, Audacity has to be used in this case; although you can change the volume, mute, and fade in or out the audio.
- No audio in frame-by-frame. This makes it hard to find precisely what you're looking for.
- Windows Movie Maker never gave you the ability to specify the frames per second or audio kbps before rendering.
- Lack of developer support as of 2011.
- Windows only (anyone using a Macintosh will get the somewhat more capable iMovie instead)
