    • Hi,Sorry for making you disappointed. WLMP is a Windows Live Movie Maker project file. This sort of file is not a real media file so it can't be added to the converter. You can open the file in Movie Maker and save it as a movie file(usually .mp4 or .wmv file). After that you can convert it in the online converter.
